Kenny Vs. Spenny writer/creator Kenny Hotz crafts this sitcom centering on a pair of roommates and longtime friends who both work as test subjects at an off-the-wall product testing factory. Peter (Steve Markle) and Ron (Jeff Kassel) are both in their early thirties. They've been friends for years, but these days they share an apartment and work together at Testico, the local product testing facility. Each week the hapless duo is given a new product to test and asked to report back on the side effects. Despite the fact that the side effects of the products being tested are generally ridiculous and consistently negative, Peter and Ron both do their best to carry on with their lives until the next line of products rolls around and the cycle starts all over again. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Roommates and best buds Kenny Hotz and Spencer Rice participate in more crazy competitions wherein the winner exults and the loser undergoes the most humiliating penalties during the second season of the Canadian reality series Kenny vs. Spenny. Some of the contests witnessed herein are of the sort indulged in by "roomies" since the Year One, such as determined which one of the two can drink the most beer, can tell the funniest joke, or can score with the most chicks. Other competitions are, to say, the least, unique to this series, notably the one in which Kenny challenges Spenny to a "rat race"--with real rats. Also, the boys try to find out who can stay naked the longest, who can impress the most old people, and who can sell the most Bibles door to door. And don't miss the battle of the century, wherein Kenny and Spenny attempt to prove beyond all doubt which one of them has the "biggest balls." ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The winner gloats, the loser suffers unspeakable (and unbearably funny) humiliations as roommates Kenny Hotz and Spencer Rice indulge in a vast array of bizarre and often ridiculous competitions during Season One of the Canadian reality series Kenny vs. Spenny. This time around, Kenny takes on Spenny, and vice versa, to determined which one of them is the best cook, the best fashion designer, the best parent the most successful moneymaker, the most skilled figure skater and the most erotic strip tease artist. In other contests, our heroes vie for the honor of being the best-looking in women's clothes, and the most skilled and performing everyday functions without using his arms. Plus, they try to see which one can stay awake, stay blindfolded, and stay seated on a cow the longest. In one of the more chucklesome episodes, Kenny vs. Spenny spills over into another form of reality TV as Kenny takes Spenny to court over a small unpaid debt. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
