In all, there were twelve half-hour episodes (with an additional "unlucky" episode of new & previously unaired material completed in 2002), featuring such memorable characters as the conceptual artist Simon Finklestein, Melvis T. Mearle (Cannibal for Congress), and an unintelligible raving lunatic known only as "Freak Boy." Other noted skits included: "Super Crack Fiends," about drug addicts who will stop at nothing to get their television turned back on; "Critters" -- a " COPS"-like production filmed in the backwoods of West Virginia; and the tragic saga of Hop-sing, an ongoing tale about a cardboard horse and the men who loved it (literally), which landed the show in hot water with some of the town's moral crusaders. In the end, the show triumphed by continuing on an unwavering path toward complete depravity -- one rather tasteless skit was shot at ground zero of the World Trade Center attack -- and can still occasionally be seen late nights on Channel 3. ...more on Wikipedia about "Booby Hatch"
