The Greatest

Drama

Created by Ben Watkins

An intimate exploration of the incomparable life of Muhammad Ali. The amazing victories and defeats that made Ali a legend, both in and out of the ring, have been well documented and while those landmark events will live in The Greatest, the heartbeat of the story is fueled by all the moments that took place outside of the spotlight. The world remembers an icon, but The Greatest is about a man, a husband, a father,… From TMDB

    It's weird that there's a SCTV documentary called "The Greatest Show You've Never Heard Of" when there's concurrently a documentary about a Godspell production most notable because of the number of SCTV cast members in it.

    The Greatest Show You've Never Heard Of. That was the SCTV experience. This Raw sketch comedy show starring freaking movie stars & no one knew it. The McKenzie Bros, Ed Grimly &, Count Floyd would pop up in other things & folks didn't know what show they were from. It was crazy!

    Just watched "SCTV: The Greatest Show You've Never Heard Of". Other than the title -- every Canadian has heard of it! -- it was a beautiful laugh-until-you-cry look at one of the greatest comedy shows ever. And if you're a certain age? It's a poignant time machine. 🥹🇨🇦❤️ youtu.be/5vri0LVrMIE?...

    On the Greatest Generation podcast, they say RSVP instead of RIP among other little in jokes. If you haven't listened to it, it's a pretty funny take on basically every episode of Trek at this point. It starts a bit rough (and slightly inappropriate with some Wesley jokes IMO) but it gets good quick and now it's a fulltime job for the hosts. It's a good time if you're looking for a parasocial relationship with a couple of Trekkies.

    Today's treadmill entertainment — the documentary SCTV: The Greatest Show You've Never Heard Of, with a subtitle I hate, because who are they to say I've never heard of a show I watched when it originally aired and loved more than SNL?

    Good job! Given your description, I am not surprised the human story took a back seat to big flash of a modern Kaiju sequel. Bigger, more impressive was always the pattern of Bond sequels until a reset. Plus, there are some that will argue that Mr. Bond is the Greatest Movie Series of all time.
