## Resource

(Originally published on Patreon on March 25th, 2024) Well, here we are. Against our better judgement, we've decided to circle back around on Bizarre years after covering it's pilot episode. This time, we're taking a random episode from the DVDs (episode 5 from volume two, which may or may not still be from the first season) and delving into the horrors that await in it's usual Showtime/CTV incarnation. Is it one of the worst sketch shows of all time? Yes. Yes, it is. Join us!
