Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). There's very little apart from pop culture references, most of which are lost to time. However, the few bits that aren't pop culture references (and some bits that are but are so obscure that I didn't know they were) are wonderful. Relentlessly, aggressively zany.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.0/4 (Indifferent)
