From Candid Camera to American Idol, American television viewers' appetite for
watching other folks get embarrassed, humiliated, or worse at the hands of
both themselves and others never seems to wane. How else to explain the fact
that MTV's Jackass, a show built on dangerous, painful, and stupid stunts,
could spawn not only a feature film but a spin-off like Viva La Bam, issued
here in a three-disc set compiling the show's fourth and fifth seasons with
extensive bonus material? This is classic MTV fare, made by and for slackers,
stoners, and skateboarders, the tattoo and heavy metal crowd who get off on
the kind of jejune, puerile behavior that Bam Margera and his crew celebrate
in every one of these 16 episodes. A combination of The Tom Green Show, Paris
Hilton's The Simple Life, and the aforementioned Jackass, Viva La Bam is
hardly what one would call innocent, but it's neither as cruel nor as mean-
spirited as others of its ilk. It focuses less on outrageous stunts than on
Bam's good-natured tormenting of his family, including mother April ("Ape"),
dad Phil, and especially uncle-clown Don Vito (the latter two have a combined
girth roughly equal to the Earth's circumference); in the two-parter that
opens the fourth season, for instance, they follow Phil and Ape to Europe
(later adventures take them to Brazil, Mexico, Finland, and Russia), wreaking
havoc everywhere they go and pretty much living up to the stereotypical image
of the boorish, ignorant American abroad. There are guest appearances by
rockers like the Bloodhound Gang, Hanoi Rocks, HIM, the cartoonish Gwar, and
even Billy Idol, along with ace stunt bikers the Metal Mulisha, but unless
your idea of hilarity involves folks dumping food on one another (even better
if the dumpee is asleep), Viva La Bam's appeal will be limited, to say the
least. On the other hand, folks who do enjoy that kind of thing should be
delighted
