Throwback: LL Cool J On MTV’s Remote Control

I was saddened the other day when I heard news of the passing of Ken Ober. He was the host of one of MTV’s first non-video playing ventures in the late ’80s, a TV trivia game show called Remote Control. Adam Sandler got his start on the show and my 16-year-old hormones had a thing for Kari Wuhrer. I found a clip of one of my favorite eps featuring LL Cool J with bodyguard in tow, chompin’ on cookies and milk and havin’ a good ole time. It’s not as entertaining or funny as I remembered, but still a bug out to witness nonetheless.

    Yoooo, this was my show!! This was a time before Collin Quinn came out of the closet, I hated Just Say Julie, Dennis Leary was still funny and Kari Whar did the fake porno’s on Cinemax… Ahhhhh, the 80’s, it doesn’t get much better..

    RIP..Ken Ober!!
