Nickelodeon's Superstar Slime Showdown at Super Bowl 2018 mini-reviewed

What is it? Hour-long unscripted...ish...Superb Owl special thingamajig
Where did it air? Nickelodeon
Who stars in it? Breanna Yde and that other dude from School of Rock, some football superstars like Drew Brees (yeah I'm too lazy to look up his name), Demarcus Ware, Deion (again too lazy to look it up) Sanders, yadda yadda

It's...this big pile of barely watchable whatever. You can really tell it's filler, and yeah I know they're making no effort to even disguise its filler nature. But still, in past years (including last friggin' year) they actually put some friggin' effort into it. I swear they just let it slip more and more. Back when they just had a bunch of local kids playing flag football, they actually put more effort into that and made it more something actually worth while to watch - you know, made it into a worthwhile sport

This is just a massive friggin' waste of time. And I don't mean that necessarily for the viewer (although that's still true), I mean for the network itself.

Special Event Grade: D-. It had one or two segments that were actually worth watching, which is what saves this from a friggin' F, for friggin'. But otherwise there were massive segments I just FF'd through because, again, waste of time.
Special Event MPV: The two local kids who were flag football champions that had maybe a total of 45 seconds of screen time combined, I guess. Also that Kate reporter woman from ESPN or something because why not.

Extra Thoughts:

 - watch the Puppy Bowl instead.
