Dear God.   In the guilty pleasure Saturday Morning Sitcom, Saved by the Bell, we were treated to an iconic episode in which a dream sequence (narrated by Casey Kasem of course!) shows the rise and fall of their band, “The Zack Attack”. Beyond a school dance, we learn little of the band, but does it really matter here?

It does not get much cheesier than this.

From “Smashing Time” which was a satire of the 1960’s Swinging London scene, Yvonne (Lynn Redgrave) became a pop singer, who was very bad. Of course, like the real music world, many songs that make it are very bad, and despite her inability to sing and cheesiness of the material, it became a huge hit. Sadly, we can’t say the same for the film.

Ted “Theodore” Logan

If we are to believe what we saw in Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (and why wouldn’t we?) it was the music of Wyld Stallyns that brought peace to all of Earth and excellence.

Musically speaking it might be hard to digest that as in the last scene of the first film we saw them actually play and the results were not very good.  Rufus (George Carlin) assured us that they would get better, and in the sequel (Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey) they did get better thanks to time travel and intense lessons, which allowed them to win the Battle of the Bands and start the domino effect that brought harmony to the World.

How can we not have a band that accomplished this not be enshrined in our Hall of Fame?

The Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame are pleased to welcome Wyld Stallyns to the Class of 2017.

“Show me Your Weenis!” From the criminally under watched (we say that, as we wonder why everyone didn’t watch this!) Mr. Show, we have a gay Heavy Metal band. That in itself was not the gag, but that Wyckyd Sceptre was in complete denial of their sexuality. What hurts them here is that we learned about their carnal preferences but little about their actual music.

Why you should vote for them:
