| Wonder Showzen | comment |
Wonder Showzen was a grotesque Black Comedy parody of Sesame Street by art collective PFFR that managed, against all odds and Executive Meddling, to last two complete seasons on MTV2 between 2005 and 2006. It features delights such as: Puppets who... Put a robotic slave, a monkey, and the human spirit on trial. Suffer from AIDS. Literally have sex with Middle America. Other features include... "Beat Kids", a recurring segment where a young Intrepid Reporter asks increasingly annoying and disturbing questions to New York City residents. "Horse Apples", a parody of Hee Haw and Blue Collar TV.The spiritual predecessor of Xavier: Renegade Angel. | |

Meat-O-Vision: Done rather strangely in "Oceans." Stranded at sea, Chauncey envisions Wordsworth as a roasted chicken. Wordsworth then envisions Chauncey as a female roasted chicken (with wig and lipstick). Instead of trying to eat each other, the two begin dry humping instead. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: "Cooperation" shows the characters watching Wondy Showzy, a cheap knock-off of their show, with crudely made sock puppets and poorly produced segments (though some are regular Wonder Showzen segments put through a low-grade filter). The whole series can be scene as this, with the deliberately cheap-looking sets and poor puppeteering. | |

Knuckle Tattoos: The "Beat Kids" segment's logo is the name tattooed across two fists. The Wondy Showzy knock-off equivalent, "Hit Children", also uses a knuckle tattoo logo despite not having an eight-letter name, which results in a three-fingered fist alongside a eight-fingered fist. | |

Overly Long Gag | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_a188ac4b | comment |
Overly-Long Gag: The first season finale. The episode was about patience, and they made it to test your patience as much as possible. People talk as slowly as possible, there's Clarence trying to get an old guy to say "Patience" right, and to take it up to eleven, halfway through, they run the first half of the episode backwards to "literally undo any damage [this episode] may have caused", with a few segments abridged, and with a few minor changes (including "Punctuation Marks with Punk Mark" not having music in the background). After that the episode turns into one on the topic of "Speed" for about five minutes, but THEN, at the end, a recap of the entire episode (including the recap itself) is played at warp speed during the credits. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: There's a segment in one episode that parodies Muppet Babies (1984) as "Wonder Showzen Preemies". It's animated in the same style as Muppet Babies, and it even takes place in the exact same nursery that Muppet Babies took place in. | |

Self-Deprecation | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_c9597a03 | comment |
Self-Deprecation: Two of the "Funny/Not Funny" segments end with the children's voices shouting "Not funny" in response to a depiction of the show's logo. The final episode has Clarence asking people about what's wrong with television, many of them declaring that television is too violent and vulgar nowadays. Clarence agrees with them even though Wonder Showzen itself contains a lot of violent and crass content. | |

Refuge in Audacity | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_d45c0b86 | comment |
Refuge in Audacity: Practically the sole reason for the existence of the "Beat Kids" segment, where a young boy can dress up like Hitler and march down a busy street in New York because he's a kid. Even the name itself counts: one could say it's meant to imply "kids on the beat", but the Knuckle Tattoos logo implies otherwise... | |

Dream Within a Dream | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_d54f84cb | comment |
Dream Within a Dream: The episode "Health" is revealed to be a nightmare Wordsworth was having; he complains about the cheap cop-out, but he's happy to be at least healthy... until he sees he's nailed to a cross. It then turns out that the episode was actually a dream of Chauncey, who fell asleep during Wordsworth's boring speech shown at the beginning; he also complains about the cheap cop-out. A post-credits sequence then reveals the episode was a dream Jimmy (a boy who was featured in a cartoon earlier in the episode), now a talking hot-dog, was having while asleep in class. | |

Half-Witted Hillbilly | |
| Wonder Showzen / int_dbd68b08 | comment |
Half-Witted Hillbilly: A main part of the premise of Scooter McJimmy: Hillbilly Boy Genius, where the titular character uses his intellect to help out yokels with problems that they are too stupid to handle themselves or, more accurately, take advantage of their idiocy to play tricks on or do disturbing things to them. The sketch has him calm down a man who thought a bar of soap in his washtub was a monster, plug up a man's anus with a cork so that the potatoes he eats stay in his belly (the man not realizing that consumed food is supposed to leave the body after being digested), tricks a man wanting to join fishermen on the TV he's watching into running against the TV screen to fry up the birds that spin around his head while he's dazed and runs a successful food stand where he fries more birds produced from hitting the customers. | |
