The John Henson Project - I've got a bad feeling about this

I’ve been seeing commercials for this over the past week. If the commercial (John shows a guy how to drink out of a giant foam hand) is supposed to make me want to watch, it ain’t workin’.

I have the feeling that John shot his creative wad on Talk Soup. I recall the one skit he did in which he answered a viewer question on whether or not he like fried chicken. The following video was absolutely hilarious. Sick, but hilarious.

Was that the “Grandma’s Chicken Feet” sketch?

This new show won’t be diddly squat without references to Grandma’s Chicken Feet, with the song.

Nope. In the video, he’s eating fried chicken in a very, uh, sensual way.

Oh god, I HATED John Henson with a burning passion when he was on Talk Soup.

I saw an ad for his new thing when I went to see ROTK. Why did they resurrect this beast? WHY?!?!

Because he’s TALENTED, duh!

I give it six weeks. It looks like Jackass Lite.

Glad to see Skunk Boy’s earning a paycheck again. I thought he was better than Kinnear on TS.

What’s up with that blond spot on the side of his head, anyway?

I absolutely loved him on Talk Soup, but the promos for his new show are not encouraging me to tune in.

Other than hosting some of those “schedule filler” funny foreign commercials specials, I guess that development deal I read he had with ABC must not have panned out.

I like Henson, but the new programs on Spike TV have been pretty much a bust for me except for the perfect absurdity of MXC and it’s fun take on the What’s Up Tiger Lily? gag.

The beer foam finger spot that I keep seeing is getting old quick.
I wish Skunk Boy well, but don’t hold out high hopes for the show.

Farewell, SpikeTV. I barely knew ye.
