Hangman's Joke

Hangmans Joke
In what was Brandon Lee’s best and final film, The Crow was a dark and brooding film with an amazing soundtrack. Before he turned into the “Crow” we had a brief glimpse of his musical career, as he was the lead guitarist for Hangman’s Joke, which was explored more in the seldom seen TV Series. Does this deserve an entry? Probably not, but this was a very good film, so we are throwing it a bone here.

None

Why you should vote for them:

Handful of Peter

Handful of Peter
Inspired by a local talent show, Peter and Lois Griffin elect to resurrect their old folk duo. They remembered themselves as brilliant, and thought that is what they recaptured. Unfortunately, they also adopted their old practice of doing drugs before their performances, and the end result was the two of them wailing incomprehensibly.

TV Show Appeared:
Family Guy (2006)

Actors:
Seth McFarlane (Peter Griffin)
Alex Borstein (Lois Griffin)

Noble Indian Chief/Do Her

Anything Family Guy related is always good for a laugh.

Why you should not vote for them:
They were very bad.



Hampton the Hamster

Hampton the Hamster
As the Internet exploded with porn, the other end of the spectrum gave us a high-pitched dancing hamster. If there was one thing that pop culture has taught us, it is that trying to decipher what will become successful is impossible, so rather than figure out how the Hamster Dance became a minor hit, let’s just say that for a hot minute initially because a Canadian art student wanted to make something cute, and American commerce found a way to make money off it.  




The Bullet Points:
Album Appeared:
The Hamsterdance Album (2000)

Actor:
None

Songs you might remember:
The Hamster Dance

Why you should vote for him:
Dear God, you really shouldn’t!

Why you should not vote for him:
Not only is this a hamster, it is easily the most annoying song on this ballot.



Hamlin Rule

Hamlin Rule
The cheese factor is through the roof here as Martin Mull starred as Hamlin Rule, a Rock and Roll flute player who uses his piping skills to have children steal for him (Seriously). This was of course before he was stopped by Wonder Woman and learned a lesson in life. Thanks Lynda Carter!
