What happens

This Movie Sucks! (sometimes abbreviated as TMS!) is a Canadian comedy television series hosted by Ed the Sock, premiering on May 28, 2010, two years after Ed's Night Party went off the air. The show is similar to another former Ed the Sock series, Ed's Nite In. This Movie Sucks! features his wife and Night Party co-host Liana Kerzner, and comedian Ron Sparks, another MuchMusic personality. The series was produced and broadcast by CHCH-TV Hamilton, and also broadcast regionally on CJNT-TV Montreal and CHEK-TV Victoria, as well as on cable stations Movieola and Silver Screen Classics. A third season of This Movie Sucks! was reported as being under development. It was to feature six new one-hour episodes, as the cast stated that the original two-hour format was "killing" them. Reruns ceased on CHCH-TV until that time, although they still played on other channels. New films to be featured in season three would have included Raiders of Lost Atlantis and The Wild Weng, a film that like the previously featured The Impossible Kid starred Filipino little person actor Weng Weng. The third season either never went into production or simply never aired and CHCH has since removed the show from its listings. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
