S...stranglers with ca...ca... I guess we'll never know

This is Jerri Blank

photo05ed6.jpg

She's a 47 year old loser, user, and abuser. Even though she's a former druggie ex-con prostitute (based on David Letterman's girlfriend) she's desperate to start her life all over again, and re-enrolls in high school with predictably hilarious results

Strangers With Candy was an under-watched Comedy Central series that was canceled to make room for a show about a strip mall that lasted five minutes on air. But its memory lives on

Also significant was Stephen Colbert as an angry gay clown

    Early on in the show they kept talking about how the art teacher was the fat one in the relationship but near the end it was Colbert who was putting on a few.

    Plus he was in a speedo in one episode. Great episode

    What kind of stuff was Glint? It looked like the kind of cheap hair gel you can get in a tub at target, but I can't imagine them wanting to rub that on their lips

    My favorite episode was the herpes episode, but Jerri's son was a close second.

    YES.

    And the episode with Andy Richter is also fucking hilarious.

    Strangers with Candy was always just a little too unnerving for my tastes.

    Granted, the last time I saw it was when it was on Comedy Central a few years ago, so I should probably give it another shot.

    I think I like the series better than the movie, simply for the fact that there's more of the series, but the movie has my favourite monologues ever

    But Orlando was better than Megawatti

    Why doesn't anyone like me

    I liked the movie, but it wasn't as good as I had hoped.
    Them not having the Dad was REALLY a bummer, imo.

    Orlando, you can't be a pilgrim. The pilgrims had snowy white skin to match their pure Christian souls. They didn't sacrifice coconuts to their monkey gods.

    In the final episode they actually show what Amy looks like without the Jerri stuff, and she's so pretty.

    Then the shit hits the fan and the series ends. I love when you listen to the commentaries and, instead of just explaining their thought process, they just add more jokes to the show.

    I'm watching the episodes with the commentaries now, which I was weary about since Amy talks about them in interviews as being really boring, but they're totally informative and there's a lot of funny behind the scenes information

    Like how they couldn't come up with a name for Principal Blackman, so they just wrote "Blackman" as a placeholder name and ended up going with it

    Awesome
