I only watched part of it, as a kid, but it made me way too uncomfortable so I had to stop.

- Medieval Times Waitress: There were no utensils in Medieval times, hence there are no utensils at "Medieval Times". Now, would you like a refill on that Pepsi?
- Steven M. Kovacs: There were no utensils, but there was Pepsi?
- Medieval Times Waitress: Dude, I've got a lot of tables.

Yeah. I think there was one in Myrtle Beach that my friend went to just because of this movie.

It's an underrated gem. Jim Carrey was genuinely creepy in it.

At the time people were saying it practically ended his career. Even homer had a joke about it in the Simpsons.

Includes a show to be fair. If I lived not 6 hours away from one, i'd try it. Memories and all that

It sometimes kind of feels like a more uncomfortable version of Fight Club, in the sense that eventually you're not really sure who is in on the Cable Guy's schemes, like who does him favors because he's providing them with free cable (or blackmailing them).

This is a good comparison. Never really noticed it consciously.

Few points

1. Andy Dick was likeable for once in his pathetic fucking life as the king guy.
2. Janeane was underratingly hot back in the day as that dark, deadpan chick ie. April Ludgate
3. Medieval Times seems like it kicks ass although I never went. Only did the Renn Faire a couple times which I guess was better.
