CW's (award-winning) Picks

Mr. Show: Though the sketches appeared to be all over the place with no discernible logic Bob Odenkirk and David Cross always seemed to present an all-encompassing theme or moral, though it's often strange and disturbing.

Wonder Showzen: If it is possible to find a show more disturbing than Mr. Show, Wonder Showzen would be it. Masquerading as children's programing, this piece of variety television makes Paul Reubens' little theatre scandal look tasteful, teaching children everywhere that even puppets can be racist.

Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job: Tim Heidecker, Eric Wareheim, and their strange friends coil all the mental illness they can into only fifteen minutes of airtime on Adult Swim. Check out the Brule's Rules segment on YouTube. John C. Reilly shines.

The State: Basically the entire cast of Wet Hot American Summer was a member of this cast back in the '90s on the MTV. Members of this brilliant comedy show have gone on to do Stella, Reno: 911, and I Love the '80s.

Kids in the Hall: Saturday Night Live's little Canadian brother went on to crack up audiences for more than five years. Their strange method of comedy is both eloquent and absurd with long wordy monologues about the values of workers compensation and an infected toe. They all manage to look passable in women's clothing as well.
