Am I the only one?
thewatcheruatu25 May 2004
Surely I cannot be the only one who used to tune in religiously to the antics of the luscious Becca Grant and her ill-behaved digital co-hosts Throut and Neck. My introduction to this show came from a chance encounter while flipping aimlessly through the channels (these were my college years, and I used to watch a lot of "Wild On..." and the like--translation: I was horny). Five minutes after my brain went numb in witness of the image of Grant in pigtails and a scandalously tight neon green outfit with bared midriff and go-go boots, I regained enough cognitive capacity to realize that the show actually wasn't half bad. In fact, it was at least half good.

The premise: viewers would call in and take control of Throut or Neck using the touch pads on their telephones in video game competition. The games themselves were amusing, especially as to the running commentary by the digital competitors, but the success of the show owed itself to the often hilarious interactions between those disreputable yet lovable monsters Throut and Neck (video game head shots on television screens) and the lively Becca Grant, who, rather impressively, had a lot on the ball and easily kept up with their litany barbs. It sounds ridiculous to say, but these three had some great chemistry. I'm sad that it didn't last longer, but I hear Rebecca Grant made out fairly well in the long run. She was a co-host of 'NFL Under the Helmet' for some time, though I can't say that I ever watched it. I don't like football, but I do love sexy gameshows!

Funny show no one watched
djohnson228412 June 2005
I remember watching this show on the Gameshow Network at 7 p.m. every week day. Rebecca Grant was the hot human host to two hilarious monsters that killed sheep in games controlled by people using their phones. IMDb is wrong, there were over a 100 episodes, because I will forever remember episode 99 where Rebecca did the show in nothing but spray paint and go go boots. It was also funny when sick people would call in and hit on her. The funniest remark was when a guy told her "I want to swim in your oceans" in a sick voice and they cut him off and Neck replied "I want to hear more about these oceans". It's truly a shame they killed so many sheep on the show and killed off the show.
