Episode 28: A Look Back At "The Bobby Heenan Show"
Manage episode 286878759 series 2868512
On a very special episode of "Not About Wrestling", Chris and Stephanie take a trip back to 1989 to revisit a failed idea that might have been way ahead of its time.
The best way to describe “The Bobby Heenan Show” would be to take parts of “The Larry Sanders Show” and “The Howard Stern Show” and mix them together with David Letterman’s “Stupid Human Tricks” segments. All of the guests on the show - and their talents - were real and most were probably unaware that they’d be made fun of by Bobby Heenan on broadcast television.
The show only lasted four episodes and was canceled for several reasons.
In this episode, Steph and Chris discuss the four classic episodes - all of which are available on the WWE Network - and have a good laugh about the elderly stripper, the porn star, the cringy mother and daughter comedy team, and the sheer brilliance that was “The Bobby Heenan Show.”
