What is (are) the Three(e) Geniuses? A Brief Hagiography of the Threee Geniuses The Threee Geniuses has rightfully been dubbed "The most intentionally psychedelic television show on cable TV." (LA Weekly) It utilizes no pre-production, no post-production-just pure, unadulterated production. The show is conceived, written, acted, shot, sound-mixed, and edited live, in "real-time," so that in less than 30 minutes, another complete, fully realized, mind-blowing video masterpiece of Total Television Freak-Out is spontaneously generated. It all began humbly in May of 1996 when three geniuses-DAN KAPELOVITZ, JON SHERE and TIM ("Mr. X") WILSON-decided to create a public access television show. Entering the TV studio with no idea of what to do-and without even a name for the show until mere seconds before air-time-they changed the entire course of Television History forever.
