Epic Win: Star Search

Oct. 29, 2009

Submitted and Written by Danielle G

Before there was American Idol, there was Star Search, hosted by Ed McMahon. Star Search showcased us such future stars as Dave Chappelle, Norm MacDonald, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Aaliyah, Destiny’s Child, Alanis Morissette, Tiffany, Christina Aguilera, Drew Carey, Brad Garrett, Carlos Mencia, Adam Sandler, Sharon Stone, and Rosie O’Donnell (among many others who also went on to be famous).

Just my opinion here, but I’m going to rank that list in order of talent: Dave Chappelle, Rosie O’Donnell, Destiny’s Child (Beyonce, really), Norm MacDonald, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, Adam Sandler, Brad Garrett, Alanis Morisette, Drew Carey, Britney Spears, Tiffany, Sharon Stone, Carlos Mencia. Feel free to argue with that.

Epic Win: The Critic

Oct. 27, 2009

Submitted by sporkbot, and the Movies

This terribly underrated cartoon starring John Lovitz was, uh, terribly underrated. And to prove it, I’ve assembled some great parodies from the show. See them after the jump.

Epic Win: 1996 Olympic Gymnastics Team

Oct. 26, 2009

(With apologies to anyone who hates U2.)

Submitted and Written by Mary C, gold medalist

The 1996 summer Olympic gymnastics were completely unforgettable. All those sweet little girls with killer moves, floor routines to awesomely bad ’90s songs, Dominique Mouchiano, Kerry Strugg and that nutzo leg stunt she pulled the won the gold…man oh man. They don’t make ‘em like that anymore.

Ahh the golden days of scrambled Cable channels. A young man’s frist foray into the naughty video world. You’d watch it for hours just to see the ocasional naughty part. Ahh Good times…

Epic Win: The X-Files

Oct. 23, 2009

Submitted by Curt B, who wants to believe

The X-Files had it all: conspiracy theories, aliens, government wrap ups, and one time Bruce Campbell (win) as the devil. The awesome theme song might sound a little dated, but having seen a few episodes recently, the show is almost as fresh as the day it came out.
