I remember Manimal and even as a teenager, thought it was pretty dumb.

Warning, mild personal insult.

lol its ok. ICF used to be a bears fan and he bandwagon-ed the colts when they came into town

 

[cronos]

I loved Manimal when I was a kid!

 

[twinrider1]

I remember thinking the show was pretty dumb too (I was a sophomore in high school).
But just reading Will Ferrel and Manimal in the same sentence makes me laugh. I'm in.

i just learned that will ferrell's nickname is manimal:

Every detail from Ferrell's 10-team, 10-position tour is chronicled, stats included, and Baseball Reference even fills in a few of the blanks many of us wondered about.

His nickname, for example, is "Manimal."

He "bats" right-handed. Many of us saw his two right-handed plate appearances on Thursday, but his swing left many questioning if that was his natural side, or whether he even had a natural side.

Will Farrell needs to DIAF.

He's just NOT funny.

look, I know Abbot & Costello died about 5 decades ago, but you could at least stretch your culture a wee bit and try to appreciate at least a small bit of culture from 2 decades ago....

Sadly, that doesn't help...many of the recent "comedians just aren't at all funny...unless you're some brain-dead millennial who hasn't been exposed to actual funny people, just stupid cartoons and anime.

Will just looks funny

 

[Spydermag68]

I could see the pitch to the movie studio.

Pitch man: "We take the worst actor of the last 20 years and pair them with one of the worst TV shows of the 1980s."
Studio Executive: "You are going to remake The land of the Lost?"
Pitch man: "We already done that and the movie sucked balls, but we are going to take the same actor, Will Farrell and turn him into Manamial"
Studio Executive: "what a great idea!"

That was before reality TV became a thing, now it probably isn't even in the bottom 200.
