The Worst Shows You Used to Watch When You Were a Kid - I.E. Childhood shows that make you cringe in retrospect.

[Stormy Daniel's Lawyer]

The Lawrence Welk Show, hands down the worse show on television for a kid. Only having one channel pretty much sucked, this was before cable television, and no, I'm not that fucking old, 53. Any way, it came on right before Emergency which at the time was pretty dope. I had to sit through singing and dancing, show tunes, and polka music, etc...

"oh shit, that's the Cavity Goon!"

Cavity Goon was so weird. Like, why does he talk like a crime boss? His bitch is made of candy, that makes sense. But how do you anthropomorphize a cavity?

The Lawrence Welk Show

Oh... right. I saw a re-run of that. It was breathtakingly corny.

I once asked my mom why variety shows are so square. Mom said Liberace was considered a rock star. This was pre-Elvis days.
