Trivia:
"Strange Wilderness" began its life in the 1990's as a series of independently produced short videos by former "Saturday Night Live" writers Fred Wolf and Peter Gaulke. "They started out as little parodies of wildlife shows," explains writer and producer Gaulke. "Fred and I went out and shot them with the help of John Burrud, who actually has a real-life wildlife show. His father Bill used to host 'Animal World' and other travel and nature shows back in the '60s. So John helped us produce these little shorts which we eventually got onto Comedy Central." moreGoofs:
Continuity: After the scene where we see that Junior has had his eyelids tattooed, we never see the tattoos again. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Peter Gaulke: [talking on phone] Look at my dad. He was the king. I mean, no matter what happened, I mean he was as cool as a cucumber. He never forgot a line, and he never let anything ruffle him. My dad was the king. No doubt. And his TV show ruled the ratings.

Peter Gaulke: What was that?
[coughs while getting high]
Peter Gaulke: Excuse me. It was a wildlife show called Strange Wilderness. Oh, you remember that? Do you remember my dad? Oh cool. Yeah, then he died and then I took over the show, then it went all to hell. I mean, I'm nothing like my dad. Nothing at all. I don't know. I don't know if it was like I wasn't bright enough, or I didn't work hard enough, or I used to smoke a lot of dope. So...

I was seriously disappointed with the overall acting and plot of this film. There were some funny parts but they didn't make ANY sense. I seriously believe EVERYBODY on set and acting were high off their asses. Jonah hills character was so offbeat and most of the things he said didn't even make any sense. I was expecting to see something close to the quality of grandmas boy which I thought was hilarious. I love most all of the actors in this movie but they just didn't work well together and the story was just too choppy for me. Hopefully Allen Covert can make another winner like grandmas boy.He has been great in most of the happy madison films like wedding singer, little nicky, big daddy, etc.
