Great show for metal heads!
runoson8 February 2013
If you're into hard rock and heavy metal - this is the show for you. Two comedians and a hard rock nerd host this show and are joined by great rock and roll guests, e.g. Axl Rose, Ace Frehley, Lemmy, Slash, Lars Ulrich and the late Ronnie James Dio.

The show has evolved during the years and has been a masterpiece since about season seven.

That Metal Show (aka TMS) is like Dave Letterman but with funnier hosts and better guests.

People in the USA can watch for free on VH1's site, it's available for download here and there(...) for the rest of us, Check it out!

Long Live That Metal Show

Absolutely great show for metal and hard rock. This show is this generation's Headbanger's Ball. Hard music has been pushed back to its underground days and this show is our voice. All 3 hosts are true metal heads and have a lifetime of memories. Eddie Trunk has spent his entire life involved in Heavy & Hard Rock and is a legend himself. The show has expanded and gotten even better as seasons went on. Going from a 30 minute format to an hour was great. Despite some negative reviews and criticism this show is loved and supported by the rock community. Jim and Don bring their comedy background to have some laughs and get the audience involved. I hope this show is put back on possibly a different network but Eddie,Don,and Jim are a must.

absolutely insulting

Although they really did get a lot of icons on this show it was so poorly executed. The "hosts" are mostly washed up comedians if they even are and some fat guy who rode the coat tails of all the rock stars he either interviewed or met through other friends like a groupie who will go their whole life that they were #9993434 who was with Gene Simmons. The hosts are fat obnoxious poser, boring stern one who looks like he would even make talking about roller coasters boring and Mr. I try too hard.

Well! We start off by asking rockstars such as Tony Iommi for the billionth time about his fingers, if they had Ozzy Osbourne on they would ask about the bat or doves, perhaps Metallica about Cliff Burton or AC/DC about Bon Scott. You get the idea. The stuff they are asking is stuff you can either go on the worlds most reliable website wikipedia and find out yourself or better yet see other interviews. No one ever asked them any questions hardcore fans would want to know. It's stuff for like casual listeners of whatever band. Then they do "stump the fat guy" I seriously forget his name. Where you get really bad gifts that make the Canadian television series Uh-oh look bad and then at the end they SOMETIMES in the 10 or 15 episodes I've seen they do ask the bands some new questions but for the most part they just rush over that last bit.

At least someone had a brain and cancelled this trash you get more mental stimulation watching Jerry Springer or Maury.
