Show overview

Telehell has been publishing since 2019, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 140 episodes, alongside 27 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 110 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence, with the show now in its 7th season.

Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 35 min and 59 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language TV & Film show.

The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1.2 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2022, with 34 episodes published. Published by Justin Kaplowitz.

From the publisher

This is "Telehell", Where We cover the worst, the dumbest, the most sin-worthy of TV moments from the past 7 decades. Then, we rate them on a scale based on Dante's 9 circles of Hell. Add dry wit and cheesy jokes to the mix, and you've got something that will last throughout eternity--we hope. We drop a new episode Bi-Weekly on Sunday Night (EST) Until then, thanks for coming and remember our Motto: "If It's Not in Telehell...It's Not worth a Damn!" Hosted on Acast.

S7 Ep 2EPISODE 109 - Who Wants to be Governor of California (2003 Game Show/Special)

E

Dear 2003 TV Viewer,We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice an hour of Prime time. But we think you’re crazy for making us put on a Game Show about how crazy these gubernatorial candidates were. You see them as you want to see them… In the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of them is an ex-sitcom star, and an old guy, and an artist, an Adult film Star, an inexperienced adult, an ex-MTV VJ, and a son of a basketball player…Does that answer your question?Sincerely yours,the Game Show Network.Support the California Wildfire Efforts, visit RedCross.org Hosted on Acast.
