Watch Rifftrax online: Episode 100 The Fad Diet Circus

In preparation for working on Fad Diet Circus, we here at RiffTrax decided to try out a few of the more popular fad diets. We started with the �Macho Man Randy Savage Diet�, which allows only foods that you can �Snap into!� Then there was the �Soup-Made-From-the-Cheez-It-Crumbs-At-The-Bottom-Of-The-Box Diet� (use your own tears for broth). And of course the �Villain from the Muppet Movie Diet�, which consists entirely of Kermit the Frog�s legs (this one is known to true dietary insiders as the �Doc Hopper�). Finally we came to the �Penelope Cruz Diet�, permitting only food items you find while going through Penelope Cruz�s garbage. Thanks to this rigorous regimen, RiffTrax HQ has been temporarily relocated to the hospital, with one of us working remotely from prison (FORGIVE ME PENELOPE!!!!) You might expect a film called Fad Diet Circus to cover several different diets, or at least something, you know, �circus-y�. You silly fool! The filmmakers instead focus on the low-carb Atkins Diet. And by �focus on� we mean �aggressively attack�: one gets the feeling this hit piece was commissioned by Betty Crocker and the �time to make the donuts� guy. They even wrote an anti-Atkins torch song (really, we�re not kidding) and dressed the kindly old doctor up in a heinous plaid coat (there�s no way that coat was a voluntary choice) just to discredit him. Mike, Kevin, and Bill are willing to try any diet plan as long as the words �pork fat smoothie� are involved
