We’re Glad The Gong Show Is Back
Last night, we stumbled on an episode of the new Gong Show, a Dave Attell-hosted update of the bizarre and inexplicably popular 1970s talent show. And while we were at first skeptical of any show that makes Andy Dick a judge of anything other than how to embarrass one’s self in public, our doubts were quelled when the Vava Sisters came on.
Whether they were showing off fake stigmata, feeding each other communion wafers, or ripping each other’s skirts off, the act managed to balance blasphemy, sexiness, and a weird but effective sense of funny. And we just had to share it. Watch the Vava Sisters’ act, along with some classic clips from the original show…
The Vava Sisters:
2 Girls x Popsicles:
Gene Gene the Dancing Machine:
Paul Reubens (Pee Wee Herman!) and Laurie Metcalf
BONUS CLIP: The original Catholic High School Girls in Trouble, from cult classic Kentucky Fried Movie
