Description

This is "Telehell", Where We cover the worst, the dumbest, the most sin-worthy of TV moments from the past 7 decades. Then, we rate them on a scale based on Dante's 9 circles of Hell. Add dry wit and cheesy jokes to the mix, and you've got something that will last throughout eternity--we hope.

We drop a new episode every Sunday Night (EST) Until then, thanks for coming and remember our Motto:

"If It's Not in Telehell...It's Not worth a Damn!"

Our REMASTERED series continues by simply starting from scratch (Long Story). As We revisit the wrath of a TV Pilot with no rhyme or reason behind its main premise...Seriously, all these years later and I still don't get it; Why even summon Rodney Dangerfield to begin with if you don't even Bother explaining how you got that power in the first place??

Our first REMASTERED Episode was the first one we put together with a Low Quality Microphone as the Pandemic Began back in April of 2020. Now with Cleaner audio and 17% More Material that we left out the first time, it's our look at Eric Idle's only U.S. sitcom as a Leading man. NOTE: If You already heard the first ORIGINAL version of this episode, you're more than welcome to skip this one; unless you're super-into the nuances of improved sound quality.

TELEHELL-O-WEEN concludes with--what I may truly feel--is one of the Worst Literary Adaptations ever made for Television...surprsingly enough, it's NOT because young Jeff Goldblum is Ichabod Crane; thats the LEAST of this movie's problems.

SPECIAL RE-POST: It has come to our attention that some--if not MOST--of the episode we Just posted may be too annoying for fragile ears. So with that, we present an ALTERNATE, SOFTER Version of the show in question--now with 78% Less Baby & Burping sounds. But don't worry, we're keeping the Original version up just in case there are those who don't mind the noise... Sorry about this.
PART 1: It's bad enough that we have to deal with another TV series where a baby can "Talk" despite its age and lack of motor skills; it's even worse when I have to review it while tending to the needs of future evil souls.

SPECIAL: Long before there was ever a Telehell, I was (and still am) a Radio guy...and since my radio career is now officially old enough to drink, this would be a good time to do a little reflecting on the past in this series of vignettes while I do battle against a Ham Radio unit (Long story). Since this is a little longer than our usual shows, feel free to jump around where needed below: 04:40 - Jingles: A Love Story 26:27 - My Mock Aircheck (c2005) 35:49 - "Local" Commercials (c2006) 49:09 - Me & the BBC (2008 Interview) 1:04:03 - The Tale of "TV Tracks" (2017 Internet radio station) SPONSORED BY: Dave's Archives RetroCIRQ Kier's Nostalgia Corner Kev The Ripper And (of course) Our Patrons
MIDSEASON FINALE: "The Bonfire of Vanity Projects" concludes with a simple warning; that just because you CAN do everything in the world of showbiz, doesn't mean that you SHOULD...and that includes hosting talk shows--maybe if this one aired in France, it would've stayed on for Decades. Telehell will return sometime later in the Summer...as always, we'll explain later...but until then, thank you for everything...

"The Bonfire of Vanity projects" continues with the single Worst thing Michael Richards has ever done in his career...........I will be taking NO Questions at this time. SPONSORED BY Dave's Archives RETROCirq: The Video Store Kier's Nostalgia Corner Kev The Ripper And (Of Course) Our Patrons
