I recently rediscovered MXC, promptly adding it to my menu. It originally aired in Japan as Takeshi's Castle. It was taken up by a group of unknown comics, including Canadian Vic Wilson (Vic Romano) who changed the commentary. I looked up it's IMDB Viewer Ratings, 8.7, the same as Downton Abbey...The Earl of Gratham cuddles with The Green Teabagger!
It was the right show at the right time, it started airing in the aftermath of 9/11. It developed a life of its own. I'll never forget Girl Next Door Peggy Lipgloss's line as she was about to swing herself into the toxic sludge, "I like to swallow".
