There was an episode of Made that premiered last week that, as far as I can tell, got ZERO play despite it being UTTERLY AMAZING. It featured the kinda awkward, kinda sickly awesome high school student Jason, who has some kind of degenerative disease that will soon paralyze him (I missed the first three minutes, but the only reference to what is ailing him that I could tell came when he said he was hypermobile, although that just means double-jointed, so WHAT?). He wanted to be a rocker to get "chicks," but then once the cameras did that job for him, he kind of lost interest but still had to stick it out for his hunky Made coach Eoin Harrington (who's "like pie"). For some reason this episode isn't even online, nor is it airing again in the near future (as per a cursory survey of upcoming episodes on my cable box). So here's seven of Jason's best minutes, which are as cringey and hilarious as teenagehood itself.
DELIGHTFUL! Really lightened up the morning.

The pageant mom's stomach ... I don't understand. (Sorry. Great video, but, I am still haunted by that indelible memory.)

Oh dear lord. Like...I just don't know what to say. Miss Teen Georgia? And her MOM? And HIS mom? PAPA ROACH? In other news, I know so, so many people who were nerdy like him in HS.
