(rooster crowing) (lion roaring) (dramatic whooshing) – Welcome to Good Mythical More. Let’s explore some ill-fated television shows that you’ve never heard of, probably because they were horrible. So much so that they may not even have ever existed. – I’m not. You are. That’s my new thing. What’s the word? This is when we look at a word and we try to guess what it means. The word is bor, bory, borborygmi? Borborygmi? – Borborygmi. – Borygmi. Borborygmi. – Borborygmi. – Borborygmi. – I don’t know, man. That doesn’t even look like a word. – What does bor bor mean? – Borborygmi is- – I think as an art form. – It’s kind of like origami. – Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. – Borborygmi because it ends in an I. All right, we’re going with art form. What is borborygmi? The sound of your stomach growling, caused by the movement of gas in your intestines. Oh. That’s got a word, huh? – Borborygmi, huh? Probably saying it wrong. – Borborygmi. I think that’s right. Stomach growling. Huh. All right, so Stevie, you’re gonna present a stupid sounding television show and we have to decide if it was real, but canceled, because it was stupid sounding, or if it was stupid sounding because it was made up by the Mythical crew. – [Stevie] Correct. – And also, this is a s’more. That is a Good Mythical More that has an element that was decided upon by the Mythical Society and that particular rule that we have to abide by today is every time a bell rings, whoever is speaking must repeat their sentence like nothing ever happened. This is from Emily Corinne. – Okay, Emily. – [Stevie] You know, I also have the bell, but it doesn’t say every time Stevie rings the bell. – Yeah, if we hear a bell from anywhere, we’re gonna repeat this. – [Stevie] So, I’m giving the bell to Chase. (laughing) Oh, David, I’m sorry. – Oh. – You just didn’t want the responsibility of having to ring the bell. – David wanted the bell. Stevie don’t want to be. – [Stevie] Well, it would be the first More in which I’m leading a game with you and doing some kind of thing like that. So it’s too much, it’s too much. – Hey, hey, hey, save your yawns for your own time. – You know what they always said on the online nation? They were like, never gone on set. – Yeah. (bell ringing) – You know what they said on online nation? They were like, never gone on set! – Yeah. (bell ringing) (laughter in background) – [Stevie] Someone gave David a bell. – I’m not repeating that twice. – [Stevie] My Gym Partner’s a Monkey, a short-lived cartoon that aired on cartoon network in 2005. It’s about a kid who goes to a school with a student body that includes talking animals. I didn’t know you had a gym partner. Gym partner. – Oh, okay. – Like your PE partner. – Okay, so like in PE, okay. – [Stevie] Well, yeah, I didn’t know you had a PE partner. – Well, in that case, I’m gonna say- – I think that’s real because of that. It’s not like your workout buddy, because that wouldn’t be for kids. – That’s what I thought, yeah. – [Stevie] What is your gym partner? – They make sure you got your shorts on right and stuff like that. (laughter in background) You know, oh, your shirt’s inside out. Just kind of thing. – They help you climb the ropes because you know how in all PE classes, they make you climb ropes in television shows? – Right, there was never a rope where we grew up. – I never saw a rope. – [Stevie] Oh, I had a rope. – We’re both saying real. – [Stevie] I like a partnership that starts in the locker room. (laughing) Yeah, it was real. – Ha. (bell ringing) Ha! (laughing) – [Stevie] Timeout. In 2002, Nickelodeon created a show about a universe where kids can go to jail. It was controversial for tackling issues like shoplifting and substance abuse and featured a young Jennifer Lawrence. – This is not true. – 2002. – But I’ll tell you what is a good show to watch with your kids is that Scared Straight. Have you seen that one where kids go to the prisons? – No, no. – Yeah, they made the kids go to the prisons and meet the prisoners and it’s these kids that are having trouble. – Okay, yeah. – And then they make them meet all the prisoners and the prisoners like, get all up in their face and try to intimidate them. And usually, the kids start- – There’s a programmatic nature to it? – Yeah, and usually, the kids start crying, but sometimes, there’s kids who are like, I’m not gonna let these prisoners get to me and they just don’t break. – Ever? – Yeah and it really frustrates the guys in prison, yeah. – Hey, I can tell if you’re just holding it! Hey, I can just tell that you’re just holding it all in. – Right, it’s just like that. – So, hmm. – So, but that is a show that does exist, but I don’t think that one that you made up. – I don’t think this one does, either, just for the simple fact that I don’t think Nickelodeon does anything that’s that’s morally redeemable. – By the way, I don’t watch that show with my children. My kids have never seen it. I just know that it’s this thing that exists. – [Stevie] If it was called, My Timeout Partner, would you have thought it was real? – Definitely. – [Stevie] Okay, yeah, it was fake. – Okay, thank you, right. – Jennifer Lawrence. – [Stevie] Reaper! – Two for two. – Reefer? (Stevie laughing) – Reaper. (bell ringing) – Reefer? – Reaper. – [Stevie] In 2007, the CW. Oh, you should know all about this. – Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Same season? – [Stevie] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Same year. – Hold on. Okay, go ahead. – [Stevie] No, no, I’ll hold on. – Hold on, hold on. – I wanna hear what you’re gonna say because I wanna ask you a question, if you remember it, but go ahead. – [Stevie] A show aired about a 21-year-old slacker who finds out his parents sold his soul to the devil before he was born. He’s now doomed to be a soul retriever for the devil, aided by his quirky best friend. You might call it Reaper partner. – This is true. And I think I remember seeing the ads for it around the same time, but do you remember the other show? There was a show that was like, the legit 2007 CW show that was sort of like a teen soap kind of thing. – [Stevie] Popular? No. – Maybe? – [Stevie] I think, no, Popular might’ve been older. – I just remember, again, the producers were filling our heads with so many things. They were also saying things like, yeah, there’ll be like, in New York. There’ll be like the upfronts and there’ll be like the people on the new CW shows and you guys will get to meet the cast of so-and-so. They would say all this stuff. We didn’t get to go to anything. (bell ringing) We didn’t get to go to anything. They knew that the show sucked. – [Stevie] Popular. – Just fill our head with things, man. – [Stevie] Was 1999 to 2001, when the CW was called the WB. – Yeah, I don’t know what it was in 2007, but. – I also know this to be absolutely true. And the star of it, he kind of looked like Shay Carl of the time. He had a beard and hair. – Yes. – And he came back from, he was a devil. – Yeah. – Right? – [Stevie] Yeah, it’s real. – It wasn’t bad. – Now I have to see what he looks like. – It wasn’t bad. – Yeah, he did. – [Stevie] That description is not at all what the guy- – Really? Well, there was a guy who had a show that looked like Shay Carl. He was like was- – [Stevie] Oh, one of the, I think that’s the quirky best friend. – Yeah, the quirky best friend. – Okay, yeah. So, we’re three for three. – [Stevie] What? (chatter in background) – I do not know. Chase says the devil is the guy from Twin Peaks. – You need to look and see what other shows were on the CW in 2007, because I wanna know who I thought we were gonna hang out with. – Should’ve been watching Twin Peaks instead of Reaper. – I was really looking forward to that, hanging out with those stars in New York. – [Stevie] Stacked. In 2005, Pamela Anderson started her own Fox sitcom as a former party girl who starts running a book store. Get it? – Yeah, the stacking the books. – Stacked, yeah, the book stacks. – [Stevie] Yeah, yeah, yeah. – I think it was Smallville. I thought I would get to meet Lana Lang. – From Smallville? – Yeah. – Supernatural, was that out back then? – [Stevie] Supernatural has been on forever. – Yeah, since 2005? Wow. – Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars, Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill. – Stacked. TV lied. Pam didn’t do this. – Yeah. – Pam is way above this kind of thing. – Yeah. – [Stevie] Oh, man. – It’s cheesy. – [Stevie] The GG and the GG. Solid, solid. Gilmore Girls and Gossip Girl. – Gossip Girl. Which one’s better? – [Stevie] They’re different, but Gilmore Girls is better, but they’re different. We spend, like, I would say 50% of our time on the set talking about Gilmore Girls, when you guys aren’t here. – Really? – Oh, I was about to say, not when we’re here. – I know that Christy re-watched it and Lily got into it and they re-watched it together. It was kind of like a bonding thing that I wasn’t invited to. (bell ringing) It was kind of like a bonding thing that I was invited to. (laughing) (bell ringing) It was kind of a bonding thing that I wasn’t invited to. – [Stevie] It’s real, it was real. – Ah, shoot, Pam did that? – [Stevie] Yeah, all Pam. – I thought Pam had better taste than that. – Stacks. – [Stevie] Devil’s Dirt. In 2006, this show ran for one season on TNT. Devil’s Dirt was about a preacher, played by Don Johnson, in rural Texas who would also moonlight as a private detective. He eventually discovers that his church is a portal to hell. – Don Johnson had some low years. He had some weak years. He was getting his footing back. – This seems- – He’s got his footing back, is what I’m saying. – I’m interested in this. I would watch this. But I think it was an easy target. – Yeah, true. But the whole church portal to hell thing has been done so many times. (bell ringing) The whole church portal to hell thing has been done so many times. – [Stevie] It was fake. And also, it was called Devil’s Dirt, what did she just reminds me of the Dirt Devil. – Oh, yeah. Not a sponsor. What if they had to use a Dirt Devil in every episode and you’re just waiting for it? When are they gonna start cleaning something up with that daggone Dirt Devil? (laughing in background) So annoying. – You know what we have? – But I have one. – Besides another question, we have neon hair ties that we sell at mythical.com. You know what? – They come in colors? – Yeah, orange, yellow, green, all neon. It’s all cool colors. – Oh, can you wear them as bracelets? – You can even wear them as bracelets. Get them at mythical.com. – Hmm. – [Stevie] Alfalfa. This YA soap aired just three episodes in 2002 on the WB network- – Spin off of Little Rascals? – Yeah. – [Stevie] CWB network, based on the character from the Llittle Rascal’s Alfalfa. Followed the titular character as a teenager navigating his way through high school romance. Most other characters from the little Rascals also appeared, including his main love interest, Darla, who was played by a young Shay Mitchell. – Yeah, this is all real. This is all real. – No, but this is based off of the Archie series. What’s that, Riverdale. Riverdale happened, but this didn’t. – This is a precursor to Riverdale. – Didn’t happen. – [Stevie] It’s fake. – Ah. – Yes, I’ve pulled ahead, finally! – Shay Mitchell, though, even though you said Shay Mitchell, it was so, like- – Shay Mitchell? – [Stevie] I was trying to- – Shay Mitchell? – [Stevie] I’ve been trying to trick you this whole time, but also, I was like, Shay Mitchell totally would not be Darla in this and that those years wouldn’t match up, but it’s okay. – She would have been too young. – [Stevie] She would’ve been too old. Oh, no, she wouldn’t have been too old. I’m sorry, I forgot that it’s supposed to be in high school. – Why does our show not come on? – [Stevie] I’m sorry. writers. What? – When you searched 2007 CW shows, our show doesn’t come up. – [Stevie] They’ve erased it from everything. (laughing) – You keep scrolling, never shows up. – I don’t think it counted. Oh, there it is. There it is. – Oh, yeah. – One season. – Yes. – [Stevie] Okay, this is the final question. Witch Blade. Running for two seasons on TNT from 2001 to 2002, Witch Blade was about a female homicide detective who finds a magic bracelet that binds itself to her, giving her various supernatural powers. – It just sounds not good enough, so it must be real. – Witch blade, yeah. – It was just a name. They just came up with a name. – I gotta preserve my lead. (bell ringing) I gotta preserve my lead. – I guess I gotta change mine because it’s the only way I can win or tie. – [Stevie] It was real. And according to the Hollywood Reporter in 2017- – Yes, yes, yes! – [Stevie] There’s a reboot in the works. I wonder if they’ll consider bringing back Online Nation. – Let’s see- – We’ve looked into it. We sent an email to the contact address that we have with the CDW once every month. It’s an auto thing. No reply. – Reba was on the CW. – Yeah, I wanted to meet her, too. – Whose Line Is It, Anyway? Everybody Hates Chris. Seventh Heaven. – Man, we could’ve met the people who was in Seventh Heaven. – Our house is over a portal to hell! Seventh Heaven. (gentle, upbeat music) Good old Mad TV.
