Information AboutThe Man Show |
''The Man Show'' was a half hour Comedy Television Show on Comedy Central. It was created in 1999 by its two original co-hosts, Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla, and their executive producer Daniel Kellison. FORMAT The show celebrated the stereotypical loutish male perspective in a sexually charged, humorous light. The show consisted of a variety of pre-recorded comedy sketches and live in-studio events, usually requiring audience participation. ''The Man Show'' is particularly well-known for its buxom female Models , the ''Juggy Dance Squad'', who would dance in themed, revealing costumes at the opening of every show, and in the aisles of the audience just before the show went to commercial break. The first year of the show featured beer-guzzling entertainer Bill "The Fox" Foster as the show's Emcee . The Fox specialized in chugging two beers in record time (sometimes while suspended upside down) and singing lewd drinking songs. He would close every episode by leading the audience in the German drinking toast ''"Ziggy Socky, Ziggy Socky, Hoy, Hoy, Hoy!"'' (a misspelling of the actual ''Zicke Zacke, Zicke Zacke, Oi, Oi, Oi!''), a tradition that continued after his death in 2000 . Recurring segments Some of the show's features included:
THEME SONG The lyrics to theme song were: :''Grab a beer and drop your pants. :''Send your wife and kids to France. :''It's the Man Show! :''Quit your job and light a fart. :''Yank your favorite private part. :''It's the Man Show! :''It's a place where men can come together. :''Look at the cans on this chick named Heather. :''Juggy girls on trampolines. :''Time to loosen those blue jeans. :''It's the . . . Man Show! DEPARTURE OF KIMMEL AND CAROLLA In 2003 , Kimmel and Carolla left the show and the job of hosting was passed down to '' Fear Factor '' host Joe Rogan and Comedian Doug Stanhope . Under Rogan and Stanhope the show took a decidedly darker turn, with more jokes and segments being dedicated to blatant Misogyny . The show ceased production after the 2003 season. Kimmel and Carolla went on to helm their own shows '' Jimmy Kimmel Live , Too Late With Adam Carolla '' and '' The Adam Carolla Show .'' Carolla has appeared on Kimmel's program several times during its run, most recently in July 2007. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004805/filmoseries#tt0320037 G4 RERUNS AND DVDS Reruns of the show are currently airing on and 10:30 p.m. ET and on Saturdays at 12:00 a.m. ET.
