No way are the first two real.

We had a ghetto public access station in the Bay Area that just came back on the air. On New Years, they kept playing reruns of this, and I LOLd



and when I was little, they used to show random dogs in between shows.

I just heard the three words "Emaculate Conception Academy" a minute ago (kitt kat's first video) and I have not stopped laughing since. HOLY FUCK DO I WANT TO GO TO THAT SCHOOL

[samiksha]

the only public access i've ever watched is a show called The Dirty Glove, which as far as i can tell is some sort of rap group in Detroit. i think i saw an episode where someone got shot maybe.

also on ann arbor's public access channel on saturday nights they play some good music videos or live performances. the last one i saw they just alternated old prince and michael jackson videos for an hour.

[samiksha]

other than that it's all city council meetings and stuff

"I thought that was my sister for a second!"

That was amazing.

Oh god yes. The first thing I thought of was Let's Paint and Excercise tv. The fat guy was always doing projects at my film school. This is pretty much the greatest thing ever and has taken up permanent residence on my Myspace page:

My wife and I found this gem on public access a couple of years ago and have not been able to sleep since!

Let's Paint is the best show on Public Access, hands down.
