User Reviews

| Oscars for Everyone

Jeff Probst hosts this once in a lifetime Adult Swim event, four times. Adam Scott, Paul Rudd, and others recreate the opening sequences of four iconic 80's TV shows; Simon & Simon, Hart to Hart, Too Close for Comfort, and Bosom Buddies. Shakespeare is jealous. Orson Welles' mind is blown. Billy Wilder is done. In fact, it is too good. The actors are too good at bringing their real personalities to life. It's beyond good. It's based on a true story.
