DUMB QUESTIONS, ROUND 2. 3Q3D newcomers Colt McCutcheon and Doug Harvey bring just the right amount of wrong while contemplating several rounds of stupid questions. Fueled by a random assortment of awful beer, incredible wine and a cocktail that will make you run into a wall, the show quickly falls off the rails as Colt envisions a world where Mr. T plays a starring role in the Green Mile and Doug theorizes Big Bird is abusing Snuffalufagus.
