Once upon a time Weird TV was broadcast on independent television stations across 40% of the United States and most of Canada. What follows are only a few of the comments emailed to us after the show was abruptly pulled off the air by a swarthy band of wayward businessmen.
Weird Tv is really great!!! Now I miss weird tv so much!

It's been forever since they took WTV off the air in Seattle. We have only the one tape with two shows and we are sad. Heavy sigh. Maybe if Weird TV had more wrestling then it could still be on, the idiots watching wrestling at 3 am won't know the difference. Come back to Seattle Chuck! Soften up our comfort zone!

Good goddamn! Weird TV is the best thing since sliced bread. I usually swear off TV, but there is a big exception when it comes to this show. I likes it, likes it I tells ya.

Your show use to be aired late-night here on CKVU in Vancouver. I stumbled across it late one night, and was blown away. What a breath of fresh air! The best thing I've seen on TV in years. Unfortunately, the bastards dropped the show, and have since replaced it with infomercials or some such shit. Anyway, as someone who works in community TV, I just thought I'd pass along my compliments, and can only hope someone up here or in the Seattle area will pick up your show again.

Its been over 2 years now since Weird TV has left this area. since then, the station has turned to reruns of 227 and Good Times. i used to walk in to video stores and ask them about the Weird TV tapes. they'd just look at me and pretend to check their computers to see if they were going to get any in. they never did. Sadly, all i have left of weird tv is a collection of memories. of staying up late on a sunday (even tho i had to go to school in 4 hours)--of religiously telling people to watch the show. they didnt. i suppose i could have told more people. there is no one to blame but myself. its gone...gone...gone... i fear i have little more to look forward to than a life of normalcy. save me, someone. i miss you, Dr. Ruehl..(oh, god. i dont know if i spelled that right. memories fading...noooo)

I was so upset the day Weird TV was taken off the air here in Pensacola Florida "WEAR tv 3", my bro's and I would sit up till 3 every Saturday morning to watch it. I actually have a 6 hour commercial cut video of the show's now past. I must say I haven't been able to sit through the whole thing in altered states of mind (tahehehehe). Anyway I miss you guys ALOT!! and I have call'd my local station and beg'd for them to put it back on the air.
I WANT MY WEIRD TV!!!!!

I used to catch the show off of an independent station down in Fayettenam. Now the bastards have switched to an all-infomercial format. I really appreciated WTV -- it showed what could be done with no budget, but plenty of ingenious collaborators. (If Woody Vasulka is still alive, see if you can talk him into letting you run some of his stuff -- he's seriously crazed. And extremely cool for an art-snot.) I've been circulating my paltry collection of tapes and telling people to call the local stations.
Good luck to y'all.

hey i love the show why isn't it on more often Why do grapes turn into rasins when they're dried? how come there is so much negativity towards being weird in the society ? How can i deal with it? Well i must be doing pretty good since i am weird my self and im already 24? is this an ok age to be weird? I am adopted so i dunno if this comes from inheritance from my backgrouinds or is it developed over childhood, shcool, growing up and stuff?

Loved the show! Much better than my own version! Just wondered how you came up with the name, as I too was working on a project with the same name, and was dumbfounded when I heard that the program I was about to air. . . was actually seen (by a friend) the night before! At any rate, I love your wacky sense. Good job!

Okay, so the e-mail works (thanks for all of the "creamy treats" in the ol' e-mail box you crazy weirdos). The revolution begins at exactly 11:23 a.m. today (what, no one told you?). All is possible. P.S. Please re-start your broadcasts in the Vancouver BC area, as I am now 37 days, 26 hours, 47 minutes and 23 seconds in withdrawwwwwwwwwwwwlllllllllllllllllll........
