Dave and Steve's Video Game Explosion was a show produced by Burly TV (burly Bear Network) - a television network that catered to college students across the country. Burly TV had several television shows, but Dave and Steve were certainly in the upper quartile when it comes to pure hilarity.
Burly TV presented Dave and Steve's Video Game explosion weekly on TBS (Turner Broadcasting) at 2:00 AM Wednesdays & Thursdays, for a duration of 30 minutes.
So, by now you may be questioning the quality of the programming, considering that it aired at a time when even the most dedicated hackers are feeling a bit drowsy. I tell you: Dave and Steve are hilarious! Dave is fat. Steve is skinny.
Dave is the dominant presence on the show, with his demanding size, and his overpowering voice.
Steve is the submissive of the two, usually being squelched by Dave, and therefore rarely gets a word in.
I was reluctant to watch the show when my friend first linked me to their archive website, but after a few episodes, I was hooked. By the time I watched the entire GTA3 review, I was in tears - from all the laughing.
Oh, yes, did I mention that it is a video game review show? At least, that is what they advertise it as. It's more of a variety show than anything else. What kind of variety? Not much. SoBe, their "sponsor" gets mocked, Tiffany Holiday, their cheerleader/bimbo gets abused, and abusive, and Dave and Steve go through great lengths to humiliate even themselves.
I mentioned that Dave and Steve enjoy a sponsor - SoBe, to be exact. Whether SoBe is a true sponsor, or just a mock sponsor is a mystery, but therein lies the fun. You see, Dave and Steve give SoBe nothing but the worst. Allow me to illustrate: ...every time we get a letter telling us to be nicer to SoBe, we are going to do the following...
(Dave reads from a bottle of SoBe, white in color) Dave: SoBe Lizz Blizz: a tropical brew that celebrates snowboarding.
Steve: What a bunch of crap.
Dave: This looks like a big bottle of horse semen.
Relentless.
Unfortunately, D&SVGE, along with Burly TV's, run on TBS ended too soon. We should all bow our heads for a brief moment of silence... Okay, that's enough.
