Description:

Show detail Hide detail

PUPPETS WHO KILL is a live-action half-hour comedy series which revolves around Dan Barlow, a well meaning but incompetent social worker, and the four criminal minded puppets he is entrusted to rehabilitate. In this episode Dan send Rocko onto a local telethon (for people who have impaled themselves on sharp objects) both in the hopes to get publicity for Rocko and to get him and the half-way house into corrections services' good books. Dan uses the money they have raised for another charity and sends it with Cuddles in the hopes to make Rocko look good on air. However, Cuddles is distracted by an exotic dancer on his way to the telethon, while Buttons does his best to throw himself at the attractive but impaled hostess who finds him repulsive. Rocko's anger gets more and more serious on air, as his medication slowly wears off he falls into a swearing match with the shows host. The telethon turns out to be a great success as people are more willing to watch the pole people be humiliated. <23mn>
