Bam's latest instalment of video mayhem aired last night on MTV, 'Bam's Unholy Union'. As his fiancee Missy put it "this isnt Viva La Wedding.....", but for some of us Im sure it seemed just that. The show was more or less Viva La Bam format, with the addition of a 1 Part Missy - 1 Part Marriage Theme - 1 Part Bam's usual antics.
Bam's Unholy Union certainly sheds some light on a side of Bam Margera that, for the most part, we haven't seen in his past productions. Its more of an inside look to the life of Bam. I know that sounds kind of cheesy to say the least, but in the first few minutes I think Missy summed it up while talking about getting her named changed on her drivers license: I'll have "The Margera Curse" of "No body wants to deal with you, no body wants to deal with you, nobody wants to book out hotels with you". Bam of course laughs that off and moves on to what makes him Bam: "You were a little chubster".
As I was watching my mind drifted off thinking about what kind of reception the fans were having at this moment. Largely Bam's fan base is certainly younger kids, the 'Jackass Generation', how were they processing this 'Grown Up' material? "I barely know my address, how the hell do you expect me to know some of my friends addresses." As Bam and Missy discussed the "TO-DO" List for the wedding. But, then it just didn't matter when Bam started writing the list on a Mirror with a Bar of soap:
1.) Dress
2.) Brides Maids
3.) Grooms Men
4.) Sex
5.) Partys
6.) Food
7.) Rock!
We're all rolling on the floor for sure, regardless of the 'Grown Up' Discussion taking place. And, there you have it, Bam's a kid on the inside and he's going to hit the target everytime.
- "Its going to be like a wedding on Crack!" - April Margera.

I liked the 'Theme' format (Their Wedding) better than Viva La Bam personally. Even when you question how scripted out what you're watching is, you know Missy is trying to keep a handle on things because this is serious for her. Ladies and Gentleman, thats entertainment. You have no idea what Bam is going to do next, and you certainly didn't think it would be French Kissing his fiancees Mother and Sister, but he does! "He made out with my mom!" - Missy
Reminds me of the catch phrase from Viva La Bam - What will he do next, "Whatever the fuck I want."
The 30min episode came to an end nearly as fast as it started. Left with perhaps another small glimpse into the real life of Bam Margera, maybe truly an inner thought: "Do you know what you're Getting into" Bam asks Missy, as she simply nods yes... "Then welcome to hell".
So thats my little review. Ive been doing underground Bam web development (in no relation to Bam himself) for about 5 years now, and its the first 'review' Ive written. Funny! If starting the first online e-commerce site (ckymovies) selling thousands of Bam products, and creating/running the largest Bam Fan community doesn't impress.... I know my writing skills wont! ha!
