This volume features 10 episodes of the sought after Showtime Cabele Television's "Adult" version of BIZARRE(never shown in Canada or syndication!), hands picked by the series' producers and presented on video for the first time ever. Each hilarious episode features a range of comedy formats-sight gags & pranks, risque comic vignettes and off beat satiral sketches.

You Can Never Go Home Again, Oct 14 2006
By sun ra - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Best of Bizarre, Vol. 2 (DVD)
I was looking for a bit of nostalgia with this purchase as I remember sneaking up to watch "Bizarre" as a young lad of nine or ten when the episodes were rerun on network television(desperately hoping that the guy in charge of placing the black box that covered the girls boobs would slack on his job just once). Alas, these skits are terrible, and should be avoided--unless you happen to be a ten year old boy that has very liberal parents, or you have the maturity level of a preteen. Even when judging these episodes in an early 80's vacuum it's hard to see "Bizarre" as the purveyor of impudence that it was billed as. If your looking for cornball sketch comedy from around the same time period check out the "Kentucky Fried Movie" which has at least one skit that still manages to offend.
