Celebrity Deathmatch
MTV's gleefully violent claymation series, in which caricatures of real celebrities beat each other to a pulp in a wrestling ring. Premiering on May 14, 1998, it staged absurd stop-motion grudge matches — pop stars, actors, and politicians torn limb from clay limb — narrated by ringside commentators Nick Diamond and Johnny Gomez. Gory, silly, and weirdly beloved, it signed off each fight with the same line: "Good fight, good night."
