This "For Your Emmy Consideration" VHS Tape contains episode #105 (Caveman Day) of Comedy Central's comedy/variety show "TV Funhouse", which originally aired on January 10th, 2001.
Created by Robert Smigel, this show still has a huge cult following because of it's politically incorrect, dark humor & satire. I'm sure that if Comedy Central had put off airing this show and had included it in their Adult Swim lineup (which it predated by a little over 8 months), it would've lasted a LOT longer than just 8 episodes!
The videotape is in Excellent Used Condition; the slipcover has some slight wear, mainly on the corners.
Pictures are of the actual item for sale.
All items that I sell come from a smoke free & pet free home.
"For Your Consideration" VHS tapes and DVDs are manufactured by the networks & studios for the sole purpose of distributing them to members of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (who vote for the Emmy's) or the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (who vote for The Oscars) to solicit votes for their TV show/movie nominee. Because they're made in such limited quantities, they are hard to find, highly collectable and sought after by fans. Another reason these FYC copies are rare is because many of them get thrown out after viewing them (if they're watched at all), as they are pretty much thought of as "Hollywood Junk Mail".
Depending on the studio and how much money they want to spend on these copies, they may be packed in a simple white slipcover or in very fancy, eye catching or gimmicky packaging.
On most of these FYC tapes & DVDs, the video is watermarked with the phrase "For Review Purposes Only", "For Screening Purposes Only" or "Property of (fill in the blank) Studio" that may be on screen the entire time, or pop up intermittently.
