Wonder Showzen is an absurdist variety show meant to poke fun at public access children's programming. It features puppets, kids in costumes conducting interviews, and animated shorts. Wonder Showzen is very controversial due to some of its subject matter. Often times it is not scripted and can be surreal. It is executive produced by Vernon Chatman and Jon Lee, and many comedians have made appearances on the show including: H. Jon Benjamin ( the guy who voices Bob in Bob's Burgers, and Archer), Jon Glaser from Parks and Recreation, Amy Poehler, Zach Galifianakis, and David Cross. Hope you like it.

Hundley, Janelle (MW) Alaskan Bush People 10

http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/alaskan-bush-people/
The show airs on Discovery Channel on Friday at 10/9C. It is about a family who resides in the Alaskan wild and were born and raised wild. Billy Brown and his wife Ami have 5 sons and 2 daughters they are so far removed from civilization that they can go from 6 to 9 months without seeing an outsider. They have their own accents and dialects and refer to themselves as a "wolf pack". It's a race against winter to build a cabin to protect them from harsh Alaskan winters as well as enough food to supply them throughout the winter.

Garcia, Monica (MW) Steve Austin's Broken Skull Challenge 100
The show I am wanting to do is the Steve Austin's Broken Skull Challenge. It first aired in July 2014 and he gathers people who have done CrossFit, Martial Arts, etc. I really think my classmates will find interest in this show because its not really a show that leaves you hanging. You find out who the winner is at the end of the show and that winner goes up against the previous weeks winner. If they beat the previous weeks winner they will hold the title until someone knocks them off.

Evans, Jared JD (TTh) Bojack Horseman 100
This a new television show release see by Netflix. It's an animated show about a world where animals coexist with humans with the ability to perform and act just like humans. It's based on a horse who was on "a very famous TV show in the 90." It's very entertaining a crude dumb sense. i found this show fit into the same type of category as south park or family guy where its innuendos and sometimes straight forward raunchy nature get a laugh out of audiences with the same sense of humor i imagine is shared with many people of my generation and mind set. the video is the trailer produced by netflix and is just as crude as the show just as warning.
BOJACK HORSEMAN was created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg. The series will be Executive Produced by Raphael Bob-Waksberg, Steven A. Cohen and Noel Bright. Will Arnett (The Millers, Arrested Development) and Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad) will also serve as Executive Producers.

Mitchell, Morgan "Mo" (TTH) Ellen's Design Challenge 10
Top 5 Reasons to Watch Ellen's Design Challenge on HGTV
Reason 5: There will be blood.
Yes, you read that correctly, there will be blood. I mean, why wouldn't there be? Time Crunch + Tools (specifically saws) = Blood.
Reason 4: It will inspire creativity.
When you watch someone do something cool, what is your first thought? I want to try.
When you see a cool piece of furniture, what is your first thought? I want that.
When you see 6 talented designers build something cool, what is your first thought? I can build that.
The truth: No, no you can't. But at least you can get inspired to finish that home improvement project you've been working on. Especially since this is a brand new show -> i.e. you can't binge watch, sorry Dr. England.
Reason 3: There will be conflict.
I feel like this is an obvious one, but being on HGTV, one wouldn't expect to see "Real World" type argument. False. Even in the first episode, chairs are thrown and yelling happens. It's oh so exciting.
Reason 2: It's fun for the whole family.
You can include even the little tykes when you play Ellen's Design Challenge Bingo. You don't even have to be design lingo savvy.
Reason 1: It has Ellen on it.
Hello?! The title says it all. Ellen's Design Challenge. Who doesn't like Ellen DeGeneres?
The show can be watched every Monday night at 8pm central time on HGTV.
