Just a Show: The Real Keith King

Just a ShowAs a bonus tonight, I am watching an episode of Just a Show, a Twin Cities cable access talk show. I will be filming an episode of this show tomorrow, so I’m bringing along a review of their show for them. Let’s get started!

First off? Can’t say I’m a fan of the theme song. You know how cats sound when they’re making love? Come on, I know you do. It’s kind of like that.

Keith King is the host of the show and starts off with a short monologue to a sparse crowd. Then it is off to Adam, the audience comedian? I think I heard that right. Really, it was simply a segue to get Keith over to his desk where he is joined by sidekick Shawn. There is some standard talk show fare, such as the made up awards or press clippings being shown to the camera.

Speaking of standard talk show fare, Keith is doing a man on the street segment at Niagara Falls. It involves a lot of yelling. It would be nice if the camera was able to get a little more of the accosted tourist’s reactions, but there was a bit of comedy in there.

Now for something completely different. Just kidding, it’s time for the Parking Lot Pain, another man on the street segment. This one involves dirty sex innuendo spoken to old ladies coming out of OCB. Full people are the easiest to trap, it is a bit hard for them to run. No matter, the PLP got kicked out of the parking lot. Peace out, bitches. Peace out, bitches? In the words of Michele from Full House, how rude. Wait, is that a question? Should “how rude” have a question mark at the end of it?

Guest time. Let me see what I’m in for. Sharon Black, founder of the Exotic Destinations Studio, is the guest this episode. She helps women get in touch with their sexuality through dance and meditation. She serves wine in her classes too. Classes at the Learning Annex. You know, I don’t want to see Sharon Black in my mind’s eye giving a lap dance. Good on Keith for pretending to be turned on. I’m not sure I could pull that off. I would need a bucket

Keith’s delivery seems a bit abrasive. He certainly has a lot of energy, but it makes him seem less real. I think if it were toned down a bit he could be more relatable to the general audience. That’s one man opinion. That one man being me. Hi. How are you?

Hey, I think I got it. Keith needs to keep a straight face. Everything shouldn’t be a big wink to the audience. The comedy is there even if you don’t force it down people’s throats. We’re smart. We’ll get it. Don’t worry. Unless of course it is 2 am, and I’m choosing between this and the Magic Bullet infomercial.

Now it is time for a topical Eminem video parody. I think I hit my head and time traveled back to 1999. Hold on, I can warn the world! Will the government listen to me if I warn them about 9/11, or will they lock me away in a secret prison without trial? I’m guessing the second. Odd how that that can all come from an Eminem parody.

What kind of reaction will I get when I read this on the show tomorrow? Keith said to be as brutal as I need, so it’s all his fault. Don’t blame me. Now that is foresight, writing a disclaimer that I can read on the show in the future. Nostradamus can bite me.
