Reno 911

[Mark]

I caught parts of a couple of episodes and found it to be fairly funny. They certainly find a lot of ways to portray misfits on the show, both as part of the force and as their victi... potential collars. The Homeland Security trainers who come to give the team seminars and turn out (after they've left) to be scam artists on the Most Wanted Lists and who made off with all of their computers and equipment cracked me up.



Since this is about pseudo-law enforcement, shouldn't it go in the Moderators' Forum...?

Reno 911 rocks

I saw that episode too, the guy was in chainmail with an axe saying he was a wizard, must be multiclassed barb to attack friend like that lol. I say strangers with candy today on comedt central, probably an old episode though.

I thought season 1 of reno 911 was kinda bleh. Season 2's pretty good, though. And Strip Mall was a frigging awesome show. They cancel all their good shows, Strip Mall, Strangers with Candy, Upright Citizen's Brigade, That's My Bush...

You probably already know this, but season 1 of UCB is on DVD, as are seasons 1 and 2 of Strangers With Candy.

BTW, the DM in those two episodes was none other than stand-up comic Patton Oswalt (He's also on that King of Queens show, but don't let that fool you, he's awesome). Guy's fricking hysterical, and a D&D player to boot.

He's definitely on my celebrity D&D dream team, along with Chris Hardwick and Wil Wheaton. That'd be one funny game.

Crap, I have missed both appearances, though I did see the mustache petition bits, unfortunately I was watching 2 shows at once and must have flipped when the DnD people showed up.

Not only are they out on DVD, but are all in my collection. Have been for several months. ^_^

No Vin Diesel?

It's a great episode. I have a quicktime file of that scene sitting right on my desktop (showed it to my gaming group). But it's a 7MB files, so i can't upload it here or anything...

No Vin Diesel. Hey, we got standards around here.

But the real reason: in case a rule argument gets violent, I'm pretty sure I could stomp Oswalt, Hardwick and Wheaton at the same time if need be.

Well, there's two simple solutions... Take Vin's side, or have a bright flashlight handy to blind him in case of argument.
