I'm pretty sure nobody in my country knows who Jerry Springer is, including myself, but based on Al's song I think our population is too small to provide enough freaks for a show like that :lol: . But once one channel showed a similar Russian show, in was quite a success :lol:

The song is very close to what the show actually is. I bet Russian Jerry is hilarious!

I don't remember whether the host was hilarious, but he definitely didn't look like Jerry Springer :lol: (he was young and relatively good looking). But the guests were like those in the song, and all the show was dramma overload, with brawls and everything :lol:

I've always thought Russians were crazy. It would be some excellent TV.

what does radioshack have that best buy, amazon, walmart, etc., doesn't have? I'm surprised they haven't gone out of business lately.
taste is only something if it is yours.

Pretty much nothing. Lately theyve been more of a cell phone store than anything. And we all have cell phones, so come on lets get real

A commercial starring Weird Al.

Radio Shack still has locations. Where I currently live, it's easier to get to the Radio Shack than Best Buy. Best Buy is further away. Of course Amazon is a few key strokes away :)

Back when I was in high school, apparently behind the RadioShack was where all the cool kids bought drugs. I did not find this out until after graduating, probably because the cool kids were too intimidated by me.

But yeah, I'd like to see today's youth try to buy their drugs behind Amazon.com!
