Best of the Worst is a television program that was hosted by Greg Kinnear and aired by Fox Broadcasting Company as a part of its 1991–92 schedule.
Overview
Best of the Worst, hosted by Greg Kinnear, was a lighthearted celebration of the worst elements of life—the worst movies, the worst places to get married, the worst museums, the worst airline food, and the worst Elvis impersonators being only a few of the "worst" examples. There was even a special correspondent reporting from Japan, David Spector, apparently to prove that North America had no monopoly on life's worst things.
Memorable segments included a wacky “beat poet” duo who sang in gibberish, an Elvis impersonator convention, rent a witch, and a man who collected roadkill.
Cancellation
Due to its Nielsen ratings it was cancelled at midseason. It finished dead last out of 98 shows and only averaged a 4.42 rating.
