What happens
Wonder Showzen is an American adult puppet comedy television series created by Vernon Chatman and John Lee for MTV2. It was produced by PFFR Productions and USA Cable Entertainment, having rejected the series for the USA Network and sold it to MTV Networks. Described as a children's television series for kids, the show's format is a parody of educational PBS Kids shows such as Sesame Street and The Electric Company (e.g. use of stock footage, puppetry, and clips of children being interviewed). In addition to general controversial comedy, it satirizes politics, religion, war, violence, sex, racism and culture with comedy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
