The oddest show on television

While there are plenty of shows that can lay claim to be stranger than the norm. Few come close to the sheer oddity of Fishing With John. Although it is played 100% straight as a fishing with the stars sort of thing, it is actually an odd piece of performance art complete with narration laded with false facts ("How deep is the ocean? Nobody really knows for sure.") Aside from the strangeness of the narration, we have the generally reluctant celebrities going on fishing trips. Have a gander at the first part of episode one, which involves Jim Jarmusch fishing for sharks. I like this bit from one with Willem Dafoe going ice fishing. The last line is classic.
