Rizwan's title: "TOW we start fresh"
Originally aired Monday, January 24th, 2000.

Meet the Boys:

Mike and Ben make their television debut. Ben approaches Mike and attempts to get him juiced up and focused for their show. He has chosen the wrong time and the wrong place to get Mike's attention, however.

Featuring: Mike Pesses, Ben Larson

 

Opening credits

Hosting sequence #1:

The boys introduce their show, on which both of them have been hard at work. Mike drinks and swears as Ben presents Mike and Ben's first ever skitch.

Getting Our Freaks On:

With sub-titles for the ebonics impaired. A team of talented dancers create spontaneous raves wherever they go, trying to get their freaks on with unassuming pedestrians in Ackerman Union, and facing off against people actually trying to dance for real.

Featuring: Jason Eason, Kris Holcomb, Eric Fagundes, Price Peterson, Joe Walcek, Ben Feller, Lawrence Givens, Sean Mount

Hosting sequence #2:

Ben expresses regret that the previous skitch resulted in arrests for most of the cast, and introduces the next item on the menu of comedy.

Shot Down:

Also sub-titled. A cast member with a superabundance of testosterone tries out some sleazy pick-up lines on increasingly bewildered students.

Featuring: Joshua Soskin

Hosting sequence #3:

Mike urinates on Ben's carpet, much to Ben's chagrin.

Get On My Back:

Our crew offers students piggy back rides up the steep hill leading to the dormitories. Heavy gusts of gravity contribute to varying degrees of failure.

Featuing: Mike Pesses, Ben Larson, Joshua Soskin, Roberta Brodsky

Hosting sequence #4:

A highly inebriated Mike ruminates on the consequences of constipation as Ben looks on in horror.

Derek Huang's "Toilet Turmoil" (Independent Student Film):

Being the exploits of a young man who encounters a series of challenges in his attempts to relieve himself.

Featuring: Carl Moren, Xiaoying Zou, Jennifer Song, Wesley Gong, Fabian Bejarno, Brenton Huang, John Ni

Hosting sequence #5:

Bizarrely, Mike introduces the next segment from a tree. He appears as confused as the audience, but at least he is not without mirth. Ben is nowhere to be found.

Mr. Nice Guy:

A typical day spent with the campus's cheeriest individual, whose attempts to do goodwill turn increasingly destructive.

Featuring: Myles Nye, Roberta Brodsky, Price Peterson, Thor Erickson

Hosting sequence #6:

Mike and Ben say goodbye for now and invite audience members to E-mail them at the magic, floating E-mail address.

Closing credits:

Various photo stills culled from the week's show. The Shanghai Ped logo is shown in front of a wood grain.

One More Thing for the People:

In this peculiar bonus track skitch (or "hidden video," to use the argot of "Hall Riot"), Mike, Ben, and Rizwan steer a portable box-office window into many rows of chairs, splatting against the inside of the glass like bugs on a windshield. Then they look pleased with their handiwork.
