Captain
Tenneal (AKA
The Skipper): A crucial character/host on the Most Extreme Elimination Challenge (
MXC). He brings a necessary balance to the game by exploiting his authoritative role and using his philanthropic abilities in his dialog to improve the human condition (usually at the expense of the game's participants). His mental salvos of motivational verse can really light a fire under players, encouraging them to push on... bringing structure and continuity and to the game.
Example:
(CT)"... Well, what I'm trying to do is add a little
levity because the tension is thick here between the meat handlers and the cartoon voice actors. Uh, let's meet some of the meat handlers. How many of you are filleters? And how many of you jerk your meat?
Show of hands, how many boners here? Come on, somebody's gotta be a boner. And how many of you just like touching meat with your hands? Ok, well let's do some funny voices. You, chubby, get up. Come on, come on, stand up and do one of your funny voices...come on!"
(Man)- "Huhhuh..Well I'm a meat
handler!"
(CT)- "I bet you are! Hey, give him a round of applause. Meat handlers, cartoon characters, we're all people huh? So what do you say we all race down to the starting line.
