Doctor Insano recently appeared on television, attempting to take over the world during Green Bay’s Mynew32 Halloween Special airing of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Host and creator Josh Hadley has kindly pointed me to the footage of the host segments, played to lead in and out of the movie during commercial breaks. Look for special guest stars Bill Mosely, Mr. Lobo, Ivonna Cadaver, and Tony Todd!
As for me, I feel like I let Josh down a bit. The sound during my segments is even more tinny and “roomish” than I remembered, and it’s totally my fault. This was recorded around the same time I was still struggling with my old camera and getting my new HD camera in order, so I was still forced to record with the crummy onboard microphone.

The Doctor Insano segment was quite amusing but poorly structured, and seemed to lose its way toward the end of the sketch. Even so, this TV appearance marks Spoony’s first notable venture into mass media, and may summon further opportunities for him in show-business.
From this promising start, I wish Spoony the best of luck.
I should also add that my favorite part of this video would have been the ‘torn Chroma key’ sketch.
Fantastic! You have taken your first steps to true world domination! I wonder how many people went to the site from that clip just to figure out what the hell was going on.
The trailer for Plan 9 and your appearance as Doctor Insano were the best parts of that XD You need to get your own host segment on TV Spoony. XD
In all honesty, Dr Insano was the best thing in this video, audio problems be damned. Although I love Vampira-style hosts, so I’m adding Ivanna to my future harem.
As an aside: Twilight vampires taking over the world is probably the most terrifying vampire apocalypse I can think of. Even putting aside the sarcasm, Twilight vampires are pretty damn dangerous: they’re incredibly strong, faster than the human eye can follow, they don’t need to breathe, they have massively developed senses, some have mental abilities like clairvoyance or telepathy. To top it all off, sunlight doesn’t kill them, it just makes them sparkle.
That’s probably the most depressing thing about Twilight: they’re offensively difficult to kill.
Gah! “Twilight” vampires! Their brooding, supposedly deep, non-threatening natures will be the end of us all! It’ll be worse than “Push-’n'-eat Macaroni in a tube”, radioactive suicide squirrels, and Neutro combined! Ruuuuun!
But before we’re all damned by the tweenage heartthrobs, it’s nice to see you get some outside recognition.
Even though it wasn’t the intention I think the bad audio and so kinda worked for you on this one. Probably because the host referred to him as a hack. Great stuff, loved the pony bit.
Taranich: Pretty much alll of those, except the sparkly thing, is common traits of vampires in general.
Put a Twilight vampire in the same room as a pissed of Dracula from Castlevania and see how well he’d do. :P
Well think about it, Dr. Insano could use the Twilight Vampires to grab every insane fan girl in the world and then mind control the fan girls and take over the entire world WITH SCIENCE!!!
At least I think, or he could always go for the Van Helsing, Bram Stroker, or that other movies about Vampires and do it the old fashioned way.
Loved the whole segment!
Loved your segment! Actually, I think with the sound issues, it would have been funny to get a quick glimpse of Dr. Insano broadcasting from a small bedroom.
All the rest of the stuff was painfully unfunny. I got what they were going for, but it was just plain stupid. I think more rehearsals would have benefited them immensely.
FUCK IT, WE’LL DO IT LIVE!
God I love that.

I haven’t checked out There Will Be Brawl, but that scene would be a reference to a Mr. William O’Reilly’s rather famous freakout on camera.
DX Oh God, not the Twilight vampires! Believe it or not, I’m more terrified of those poorly written monstrocities than anything old school horror could cook up. I mean come on, just look at how creepy Edward and his family is, just staring off for minutes at a time with no dialogue at all. Seeing an army of him would just be awful.
Awesome work Spoony, and the audio wasn’t that bad in my opinion, or maybe I just didn’t notice cause I was laughing so much. Either way, great job.
Message to 87, just so you know, that isn’t a troll. I’ve said it many times and i don’t say it in an antagonising fashion. I’m a fan of most of spoony’s stuff, dr insano however i’m not, i find it cringeworthy and i’m embarassed on spoony’s behalf when i see it. I’m entitled to that opinion pal, just like you’re entitled to yours :)
Your first steps toward world domination are taken here in my state of Wisconsin? So, what’s your plan – to introduce the rest of the US to the official Wisconsin diet of cheese and beer, thereby making them too fat to resist you? Embarrass us to death by repeatedly showing us images of our state quarter?
Congrats on the TV appearance, though, seriously. Green Bay is a great place, and I’m sure you increased your exposure.
Dr Insano really was awesome in it. To think you did that with a failing video camera is amazing. I hope he gets on more shows like Attack of the Show.
NBC26. Not bad, not bad. Hopefully there are more and more… congrats.
You were great Spoony, but that host is pretty bad.
Yay for Insano! You were great!!
I’ve gotta admit, the Dr. Insano bits are hit and miss for me. He’s a character that’s best used sparingly; the times when I didn’t like Dr. Insano were usually because the sketches with him were too long and intrusive, continuing even after the amusement had expired from the scene.
Still, I’ll agree that Dr. Insano was the best bit in that segment, and I hope this is a stepping stone to greater notoriety for the Spoony One.
When he smacked them tapes I laughed so loud. That was the best skit.
Not only did I laugh at this, I’m still laughing. Can’t… stop… laughing! *HEHEHEHAHHAHAHAHAHAGAAAAASPTHUD*
Very funny, especially your cameo. :P
I think the sound quality fit well. It makes Dr. Insano seem somewhat incompetent, sort of mickey mousing his way to world domination.
does doctor insano have a fetish? with the suicide girls thing?
Oh yeah soon Dr Insano will be the Supreme Leader. If he ever needs any Uranium look me up. I am currently stockpiling it to hatch my own diabolical world domination plan.
