YTV - WTV (1993)

[freedomfighterguy1]

Warren Chester Grog was and is still my favorite Grog.

[SpookyHelder]

I'd kill for one of those tees!

[INT3RNAUT]

It's only now that I realize that these great vj's I grew up watching were high as fuck, but I still like them.

[crazyrabbits]

I'm fairly sure that there were several instances where hosts ordered pizzas and had them delivered to the set on-air throughout the 90's. I think that practice seemed to stop at the very beginning of the "Sugar era".

[youtubasoarus]

Jesus, even back when it started this show was cool as hell!

[chyld]

I'm too late for the awesome contest hehe 

[PetiteOzma]

I really wish the Grogs first christmas would be put out on DVD I loved Warren so much as a kid.

Also there was a show that was on YTV late night that had Phil and a few others doing reviews of comics and popculture, anyone remember what it was called?

They did an action figure theatre segment, I found out about so much interesting stuff from it, from the church of the subgenious to Alan Moore stuff.

@PetiteOzma The AntiGravity Room!

[freedomfighterguy1]

@PetiteOzma  holy shit I remember watching The Grogs First Christmas Special on YTV when I was a kid as well and I loved it.

I was waiting for someone to remember the name of that YTV special.

I also agree with you 100% that The Grogs First Christmas YTV Special should be put onto DVD.

Maybe we should start a petition to get YTV to release The Grogs First Christmas YTV Special onto DVD.

[musicalminor]

Although I do miss the old stuff on YTV, I have to wonder: how much drugs did Phil have to be on to do this? He's always talking to Snit or Grog. He had to be smoking weed everyday.

[KILO993]

Now that I'm older, I wonder how Phil actually managed to do this for so long? He must have toked a bit before the segments lmao

[djkrueger6]

lmfao this was classic..I miss this..man the puppet has no comic voice!

[angel5469ca]

hahahah i had one of those fisher price cameras.. and i too miss the old sets.

[XuliusCaesar]

I miss what YTV used to be. It's too bad that they changed the entire format. haven't watched it since the 90's.

[LUESoldat]

LMFAO when Phil puts the hat on him. DOUBLE LMFAO when he takes pics of him again hahahahahhaa

[barqueWorks]

iused to tape all of these when i was a kid, but the tapes got destroyed, oh well. thank god for youtube lol

[spiffylemonz]

I remember PJ Gord, and he was once trying to get through reading a fan letter to him -- but he had apparently NOT read it prior to airtime. So he was stumbling through it, trying to "censor" some of the more provocative words on-the-fly: "Me and my friend think you are so... *snicker* 'Nice' ...and we want to... *snicker* 'Say hello to' you..."

[maestermatt]

you can totally tell that they didn't want to be there that day.

[ytvforever]

i actually have one of those toy camras phil was buggin warren with

[TheCharacterActor]

Those were the good days.

[SkInHoUnD]

I miss warren

[dartly008]

i deffinatly stil have that shirt had to send away to t.v guide for that bad boy

[coozman64]

wow you have one of the shirt thats awsome

[RyanMinaker]

@dartly008 luucky bastard

[ladykisses23]

Well that was definitely a pleasure to watch! YTV was the channel I always watched when I was about 8-12 years old.

Boy, has programming ever changed.

This sort of thing seemed so real and interactive.... Those "In the minds eye" really interested me when I was younger.

[GreatBigSlide]

You've got an ugly smile

hahaha

The Zone was so awesome when PJ Phresh Phil was there! He was my idol

Wish there was some footage of Pat Kelly, I don't remember what he was like, but I saw him in a few things on YouTube recently and have been wanting to see his YTV days.

[MrPixelbully]

i remember when grog took over the station new years day 1995 THAT WAS A BIG DEAL

[Anthony830201]

very tru....crazy cartoons were on when he took it over...

[Yickbob]

@MrPixelbully Me too! - though is was '94.... Unfortunately, there was a real dispute between the station & the puppeteers over merchandizing rights which ended up with them being fired & depriving us of future Groginess - bloody TV execs!!

[burnburn25]

I remember this day and that issue of TV Guide. I also remember that on January 2 when it went back to normal, I felt a little let down lol.

[2009Murph]

I'm 25 and used to love this lol. One summer they had the pj's come to Newfoundland because they were doing a cross country tour and they had all th grogs and that. It was awesome/

[theman05yo]

LOL

Contest ends Janurary 14, 1994

3 Years Later I was Born!

LOL

[bcmasta1returns]

WTF am I watching?

[Melmonkey89]

I wish I watched some ytv in the 90s. But growing up watching cartoon network and Nickelodeon is way different.

[TheDashRendar]

Wait, so you are telling me that there are no remaining reels/copies of the day Warren turned YTV into WTV?

Perhaps on of the defining moments in Television history, has forever been lost, never to be seen again?!

[Vedelminashigo]

I know, it breaks my heart just a little to know all the great stuff I used to watch is very likely gone. Just....a fun warm memory. TV like this was personal, it spoke to me. Sometimes literally. That doesn't happen anymore. Though they were pushing it with PJ Katies farm....that was just her and a bunch of erasers.

[TheDashRendar]

Yeah, it all went to shit after PJ Phresh Phil left.

He was the glue holding the Grogs together.

[neighbourinblack]

I thought they were clay animals.

[Vedelminashigo]

That's not a lot better then erasers, even if she had the best clay in the world it was still here standing there for a full half hour talking to herself and moving little clay animals. It was like a bet. "I bet you Katie can't make even one episode on a hundred dollar budget." She spent most of that on her outfit.

[bursey15]

They were made with Crayola Model Magic actually. I remember because I was enough of a loser to go buy some and make my own farm when I was little lol.

[Gwydenvox]

I remember watcing this!!!!

[dinorpg]

I was probaly only 3 or 4 then, so I wouldn't remember this.

[perutott]

that gorg is really scary for nowadays people. For people then it was cool

[dbzmiri]

I remember those cameras!

[Melmonkey89]

Me too, I had it when I was a little girl. But I only live in america. I wish I have lived in Canada.

[JunkMaster83]

i was 10 in 1993

[armandmax]

does phil have myspace!

[blackAzureKnghtmare]

Damn you warren !!!!

[vitlioness]

it has been nearly 16 years, and I still remember Warren, and phil for that matter, who apparently is over at some country station. but point being.... I miss the grogs. Particularly Warren.

[bowflexor]

LOL i had the exact same camera when i was a kid. I remeber using it when my dad is doing a home video. I was taking pictures of my dad lol cute!

[Sage80]

WARREN ROCKED!!!

[AnimeTalk]

what ever happened to warren???

[Nimnoms]

What ever happened after he was thrown out. Wasn't there a few allusions made about him later on?

[castrewq]

[vanillabebs]

oh my...i love warren!!!

[cook4839]

phil is so cool!!!!!wonder what happened to him.

[vaudevillepictures]

That's very funny- interesting design on Warren too. The Set reminds me of MST3k. What city/town did this show air in?

[ocviotav69]

10 years later and I still find this freaken funny.

Thank you for that awesome clip.

[CampBreezyBeach]

Does anyone remember when Grog was on It's Alive? He interviewed the cast of Party of Five among other teen stars of the era. AWESOME SHOW!

[kiikapotter]

[meowmixx]

[chipmunkwarrior]

Short Circuitz

[ladykisses23]

Omg. It's amazing how easy we can forget about the little things , like these little bits inbetween shows... I am totally back to when I was 7! LoL.

[LampreyMoose]

I love how he would fly around with his jetpack, which was little more than a toilet paper roll and some string.

[GCalla420]

right on thanks for posting this, warren the grog was funny as shit i was hoping to find him here there was so many moments with him that are gone and lost forever

[Montork]

[RichGilly]

OH MAN I totally forgot this guy until now... I loved him!

[coozman64]

[IndyX]

Holy crap, I just had an Nostagla(sp?) orgasm

[supermark34]

[2SweetReda]

[stylishshenel]

[101chocolate]

..o.o..lol

[hoodyofdeath]

we should all write ytv and tell them to give us all there video footage from 1988 to like 97.that would be the shit.

[hittingrabbits]

WE'RE IN HERE YOU FOOL!!!

[Brando2600]

WHAT HAPPEND TO THE 90'S?!?!

[DBroesberg]

britney spears ,the backstreet boys and american idol took a shit on it and all we can smell is shit. that's what happened to the 90's its sad really. :(

[Cab246]

this is sooooooooooooo bad that i would barf

[snowstormcan]

Dude, you suck, hard.

[Richardwalsh00]

hahaha PJ Phil, i think i may have actually seen him when i went to toronto a few years ago. or atleast someguy who looked alot like him

[potterizeme]

It would have been funny and toatally random if they let the pizza guy come in while they were on air and deliver the pizza to Phil and Chester. Then they could have done "Interview with the Pizza Guy!" lol! That would have been the old skool YTV.

[thedreaming1982]

I can't frikken believe this was 15 years ago. I remember seeing this. holy MOSES.

[Kyokuji]

"Did you know this is you?"

I like how he looks at the camera and stops laughing. I wonder if the producer shot him a nasty look or something, lol.

[potterizeme]

Knowing Phil,probably. lol! I wish Phil would give us all a nostalgia trip and comment on some of these vids. He's on Youtube! Phil, we know your out there!

[hardehar621]

I definitely remember WTV.

[Biovore11]

Oh man, i forgot the grogs took over and called it WTV for a while. Man, thats pretty cool

[MrGreenGenes]

MORE!!

Please Someone upload more WITH commercials!!!!

[Bobo411]

wow, i don't remember the grogs, they're even funnier than snit. it's weird how ytv has actually devolved over the years.

[keetner]

I'm going to write to that address one day, and see what they say, haha.

[eliasmurray]

this made me cry

i miss being that young so much

:(

[DocSloth]

[nicks220]

I miss the old ytv..

[sarahjaneM3]

OMG, I sooo remember that new years day, i was 8, so freakin sweet man!!!!

[killerinstinct1337]

[EdgeHardy4life]

IT must take a special person to be a host of a childs program. PJ Phil was cool.

[pivotdude2]

[brandonman01]

I honestly had nightmares of this thing

[CanadianRanger17]

me to, he was gangleader with all his grogs but the Power Rangers killed all of them but Warren Chester Grog turn into a big grog, so then the rangers call the MegaZord to kill him and they did by useing The power sword and it work and gave me home ride by to my bed and that the story of my Nightmare, brandonman01

[computerzombie]

Warren was my favourite grog. I loved it when Phil made fun of his bald spot.
