Let's program a REAL guy TV network

I would add Wonder Woman, Charlie’s Angels, Black Scorpion, Relic Hunter, Sheena, and the Queen of Swords to the list of series shown on the network! You could also show repeats of the GLOW and WOW women’s wrestling shows, or start new versions of them! A resurrection of the Man Show might also be in order!

These are all excellent additions. With the possible exception of Charlie’s Angels. I mean, it had the eye candy all right but my memories of it was that it was incredibly cheesy and dull due to eighties production values. Would it stand up against modern scrutiny? There’s got to be a reason no one is rerunning it now.

I would add to the list Baywatch, Adventure Inc., Lexx and Farscape.

Also also, think of those overhead pan shots they do on cooking shows. Think of them with Rachel Ray wearing any extremely skimpy bikini top. Or topless.

It would be very nice indeed.

What is EVOO? (Not that it matters.)

EVOO = Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

I think the ultimate guy’s channel would be a split screen with never ending porn on one side and kung fu movies on the other.

Car how-to shows, but how about some stuff more at the level of an average guy with an average budget? The crazy buildups are great, but who has all that time or money?

Two Women: Xena, Gilmour Girls, Kate & Allie
Three women: Charlie’s Angels, VIP, She Spies
Four women: Sex and the City, Desperate Housewives, The View

You see the problem? With two women, you’ve got a lesbian show. With four women, you’ve got a chick show. Three women is the only number that works for a guy show.

People don’t realize television programming is a science.

Of course we gotta have the chopsocky flicks.

And on a related note: how about counter-programming Adult Swim with adult anime? La Blue Girl! Dragon Pink! Viper GTS! Swallowtail Inn! Maison Plaisir! and of course, Cool Devices.

If I had realized the depth of scientific knowledge and ability required, I would never have had the nerve to start such a thread …

Now, cut that out.

However, Rachel and Giatta wrestling in a ring filled with EVOO – I’m there for that.

How about the old Matt Helm movies? Dean Martin, babes, and spies. Sounds like a winning combination for the programming lineup to me.

Five women: Fox Force Five starring Mia Wallace.

Yes they tried to defy the formula, which is why it never made it past the pilot stage.

Throw in Nigella Lawson for a bit of big-lass sumo and I am totally there.

I actually don’t think I’d watch this channel, though. I think the cooking and the car maintenance programs are all I’d genuinely watch. Oh, and the porn.

Where’s John Wayne, Lee Van Cleef, Charles Bronson, and early Clint Eastwood? Where’s the Burt Reynold’s marathon? Shane? Ol’ Yeller? People, we must remember and honor the roots of the genre!

How about a return of the Saturday morning martial arts film action?

Saturday morning cartoons. Good ones, not that animated in Korea shit. And weekend horror movies hosted by some big-busted vamp in a tramp costume.

A good balance is essential to any successful network. Surely some sort of outdoors show in needed? Chicks Who Love Guns, perhaps?

Also, a reality show. You lock 5 guys in a house, keep them sleep-deprived for a week, then send them into bars to pick up chicks. I’d watch it.

For a guy channel? I think not. A guy’s reality show ahould be like Sorority Spy-Cam or the Ultimate Fighting Cagematch. Or, if you want to combine voyeuristic sex and violence, Inside a Woman’s Prison.

DEAR GOD, I WANT TO SEE THAT SO BAD!!!
