Video: Watch the first episode of MTV's MEGADRIVE
 

Okay, it's no Top Gear, but MEGADRIVE is about stunts involving machines, along with a healthy dose of hi-jinx and hilarity. The show has but one host, the baby-faced comedian Johnny Pemberton. He doesn't even look old enough to buy cigarettes, but what he lacks in terms of grizzled experience or a five-o'clock shadow he makes up for with fearless dialogue.

We were hoping MEGADRIVE would at least be watchable, and 45 seconds in, it is... if just barely. The show's opener features a Smart ForTwo, a flaming arrow and some explosives. We don't want to spoil the show's stunts, so check out the entire first episode after the jump, complete a jet-powered semi, a high-flying prop plane and an industrial logger.
