My favorite thing to do was to record the show on audio cassette and listen to them when I was laying in bed trying to go to sleep. I didn't have a TV in my room, but I was so obsessed with the show that I never wanted to stop being in that world.

I remember this particular bit...Andrew was in his room, supposed to be studying geometry, but he was completely bored with it...

"I, Andrew Clements, invested with the powers of Ultraman, do hereby declare that all trapezoids, squares, triangles, and all other stupid shapes shall be banished from this planet and replaced with one long straight line!" Aw, good stuff.

Okay, even if Edward Burns isn't the greatest actor ever, you have to admit that his writing is faboo. "Naw, it's just that some people might read you as less than straight. And, you know, if you are...you're my brother and I'll always love you.....sweet boy." That is a quality line, and I'll tell you why. It deals with the topic of homosexuality, which is a taboo subject in our society, therefore open to criticism (including jokes). It contains the line most uttered by family members considering homosexuality amongst their kinfolk. And the line ends with a cute, wacky little jab to give it a little extra "punch". THAT, my friends....is a funny line. There are plenty more to boot! I can't believe some of you didn't appreciate this film for its comedic value.

Some of you are just dumb, I guess.

Heck yeah, totally rad....to the max!

Actually, this show is pretty good for a straight to video release. Jonathan Silverman is a superb comedic actor, and Dan Cortese IS Joey Fortone.......the Mr. Man, built like a brick sh*tter, non-committal jerk-monkey that women cannot get enough of but later regret ever going out with. The kind of a-hole whom The Nice Guy Association of America would like to nail to a raft and send seaworthy. BUT, he turns a leaf at the end, so it all works out.

Go rent it...you might be surprised.
