With brief appearances in Mr. Show and the film, Run Ronnie Run, we saw the R&B duo of “Three Times One Minus One” deliver their hit, Ew Girl, Ew. If for no other reason, they might deserve a vote just for their individual names of Pootie T and Wolfgang Amadeus Stallonies Von Funkenmeister. Seriously, do names get better than that?



The Bullet Points:
TV Show and Movie Appeared:
Mr. Show (1995-98)
Run Ronnie Run! (2002)

Actors:
David Cross
Bob Odenkirk

Songs you might remember:
Ew Girl, Ew

Why you should vote for them:
We will state just for their individual names alone.

Why you should not vote for them:
As funny as this was, how many people actually saw this?

Ah, the Sweathogs! The Four Horsemen of the 1970’s Sitcom world. In a two-part episode the Vinnie Barberino led group entered a talent show but slacks when he falls for a rival female performer (which may have been a stretch for Travolta). He eventually picked his “bros before hos” but the Sweathogs lost to a bird caller (seriously). Damn, we love the 70’s!



The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
Welcome Back Kotter (1977)

Actors:
John Travolta (Vinnie Barberino)
Ron Palilo (Arnold Horshack)
Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs (Freddie “Boom-Boom” Washington)
Robert Hegyes (Juan Epstien)

Songs you might remember:
None

Why you should vote for them:
Come on, these are the Sweathogs!

Why you should not vote for them:
They lost to a bird caller...again a bird caller. How can they receive a vote after that?

Inspired by his stint in the U.S. Army, Elvis Presley starred in G.I. Blues where he and two of his friends form a band while serving in Germany. The plot really doesn’t matter in an Elvis movie, as long as there is a lot of music. As this was a period where his music was decent, that is good enough for most people.



The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
G.I. Blues (1960)

Actors:
Elvis Presley (Tulsa McLean)
Robert Ivers (Cookie
James Douglas (Rick)

Songs you might remember:
Wooden Heart
Blue Suede Shoes

Why you should vote for them:
The music was good here.

Why you should not vote for them:
The Elvis films are not ones that people flock to watch.

Here is another one that we are befuddled if they really qualify. Jack Black and Kyle Gass basically are fictionalized versions of themselves and have essentially created “Mock Rock” where their over the top guitar solos and theatrical singing is a parody and tribute to Rock and Roll. What started as a comedic rock goof led to a television show, a movie, three albums and tours, though when they perform as JB and KG, how fictitious is this really?   Although when we watched their 2006 film, “Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny”, we can argue that it is pretty fictional indeed. Again, we are glad that the decision is yours on this one.
