Everyone's Favourite Internet Serial About A Dangerous Sociopath With A Heart Of Gold
No agonising over scripts, situations, characters or plot here; it's unplanned serial comedy as it should be: generally unfunny and uninteresting!
Click here for an ever-growing list of characters, and over here for the episode-by-episode guide to the net's most hated ongoing drama/comedy (dramedy, for all you hip Ally McBeal fans - All five of you). Or just scroll down and choose from the episodes, each one titled in a spontaneous and confusing way, in keeping with the whole theme
We meet Mr Spontaneous and his rag-tag bunch of friends, and try to grasp exactly why Mr S leads the life that he leads: unplanned and frenetic. We also attempt to clarify exactly what the hell 'rag-tag' means. |
At the movies, Mr Spontaneous attempts to divert attention away from a 'hunky spunk' moving in on Cynthia, while Monroe makes overtures into the high-profile Popcorn Production Industry. It makes more sense when you read it. Honestly. |
As Mr Spontaneous does his bit for the eradication of feral park benches everywhere, Hamish has a date with destiny and Monroe goes real-estate shopping. All this and a cameo mention of the classic television show Gomer Pyle. Read on! |
We catch up with Monroe, who is hard at work scouting for a prospective home for his Popcorn Manufacturing Empire and is, in the process, learning more about his past. We also see how Hamish is faring after the bail hearing for his nasty (and falsely laid) 'sex offender' charges. Please read it, it was very agonising to write. Well, not really, but I'm hoping pity will sway you. |
The folks all rush to the hospital as Rand struggles against his charades-induced lightning strike. Meanwhile, Monroe makes an important decision and Mr Spontaneous finds himself being hailed a Messiah by a particularly 'interesting' (read: insane) medical practitioner. All this and more in the final episode of Series 1! |
After a two-week hiatus, we rejoin the gang on a night out in celebration of recent triumphs. The romantic tension brews between Cynthia and Spontaneous (why?!), the Melodramatic Head Surgeon pledges alleigance to a new God and Monroe delivers a crappy version of a Smiths song (remember the 80's, kids?). Yes, things are really heating up in Series 2! |
Spontaneous' accidental healing of Rand Oxford in Episode #1E has assumed stupidity of epic proportions, as he leads a devout group of followers, who believe he is the new Messiah, to salvation, consumption of beer and prank-playing. Meanwhile, Cynthia continues to grapple with her feelings for Sponty, and Yahoo Serious talks about Reckless Kelly for twelve hours. Your favourite internet serial just got a whole lot more complex (insane). |
Monroe proudly takes Spontaneous on a tour of the popcorn manufacturing plant on its first full day of operations. Impressed and slightly frightened by the system in place at Monroe's Popping Corp, Spontaneous leaves, only to meet with tragedy. |
After Spontaneous' reckless use of the medical (and fictional) drug dihexelphrene, he finds him self in limbo between life and the afterlife, and spirits attempt to instil him with new knowledge and understanding....schyeah, good luck. Will he live? Will he make it back to the mortal world in time for Christmas? It's a 21st Century re-tooling ('tool' being the operative word) of the classic film It's A Wonderful Life in Episode #2D! |
We look back at some of the highlights of Series One and Two of 'Mr Spontaneous', PLUS an interview with series creator and writer Nick Marland and musical guest Warrant. With your host Todd McSway! Yes, it's all a load of bullshit. |
We return to the, ahem, 'action' at a movie premiere for a film which Monroe has (unfortunately) invested in. Meanwhile, one of the stars of the film makes a subtle escape to hasten away to his experiments with nature...and Spontaneous, with no regard for his safety, follows. |
After skipping out on uni to while away the day, Sponty is steered in a new life direction by Hamish. Will he turn over a new leaf, or will his new philosophy be too late? |
Continuing from last episode's dramatic events, Cynthia, Monroe and Hamish attempt to peacefully free Sponty from army camp whilst the man himself is courted by an agent for a lucrative career in stand-up |
After a week that seemed much more like two months, Sponty embarks on his stand-up career under the manipulative guidance of slimy talent manager Craig Fildano. With his friends watching on, will his jokes be a hit... or will they cost him dearly? Ooooh, dramatic. |
The start of Series 4 brings us back to the bitter confrontation between old friends Monroe and Sponty. A father's advice helps Monroe decide his course of action, whilst Hamish tries to grab parts of Cynthia's flesh and Elmoİ of Sesame Streetİ fame entertains with genuine pathos and his endearing, squeaky lil' voice. Read it; it may make some more sense afterwards. |
After a seemingly interminable wait, we return to the quaint domestic idyll of Spontaneous and friends. Sponty pays visit to Monroe to try and rectify the legal situation, whilst Cynthia offers sage counsel and a glimpse of cleavage and Hamish thankfully doesn't make an appearance. |
After hardly any time has passed at all, we are at the court house for the commencement of proceedings in Cleitwald v Spontaneous. What will happen? Why is the judge continually chuckling like a well-loved soap character? How many years before the next episode in Series 4? |
