Hi,

Remember Ray Cokes, the funny guy from MTV's Most Wanted and X-Ray
Vision who left MTV to do a radio show on Kiss FM and Virgin Radio and
a TV game show on Wanted, well he will be back soon with a new
program.

If you are interested in receiving more details of his new show or
like to participate than send us an email and we'll send you Ray's
official statement when it is released in 2 or 3 weeks time so you
won't miss a thing of his new show.

Greetings,
Adri and Reinhard

Please define the use of the word funny in the same sentence as the words
"Ray Cokes" - didnt think the two went together.

It was excellent, it was the only thing that kept me alive when on an
exchange trip in Germany "tonight we go to the ice cafe, again!!!". I
was 15 yrs old in 1995 I used to really enjoy Most Wanted, on cable, I
think it was encrypted then on satellite?!

Well, not everyone likes the same type of comedy: some like Friends
others like Monthy Python's Flying Circus. That's normal...

But Ray is a funny guy and I'm not the only one who thinks that: he
was the most popular VJ on MTV and people still talk about him even
some who haven't seen/heard him for a couple of years...

Greets,
Reinhard

About a year ago I heard Ray Cokes presenting an evening radio show on Virgin
.

Not sure if he still does though.

NO! That was Maiken Wex� in 1989. Too bad nobody was watching back then.
Whatever happened to her? 

All the guys wanted her. She was funny. It was MTV before they did
marketresearch on what viewers actually want. Except Remote Control,
perhaps. Who doesn't like that game? (hosted by Ken Ober).

It was really all about the cameraman don't you think? Rob the
cameraman. 

I *do* remember the immortal interview he did in Cannes with Arnold
Schwarzenegger (sp?).  

"Hey, the text on your t-shirt is upside down" Ray cokes said. 

Arnold looks down with his chin on his chest, pulls his shirt a bit and
mummbles... "yeah.. you're right". 

It was so funny that Ray made us believe that guy can read!

Maiken Wexu was the best looking, but Ray Cokes was definately the best...
Do you remember that Cari Wuhrer was the 'babe' in Remote Control???

Maiken had that special quality of not only coming into your living room
through te-le-vision but also hanging in your favourite chair. While you
would get up to fetch some more tea for both of you. 

Maybe not that funny, like Ray Cokes would make you a bit hyper like an
overdosis sugar. I demonstrated with the anecdote in the previous
posting why Ray was funny. Until he became aware of it. In the end I
became really fed up with his cartoon-like grin in the camera.

> Do you remember that Cari Wuhrer was the 'babe' in Remote Control???

That voice reading the specs of the prices, he was the best. The babe, I
know there was a babe but what did she do? He was cool. Did she also
read out the specs of the prices? Real avant-Wired technolust.

in media.

Danish media? Anything substantial or the same kind of thing? Does she
do presenting or is she doing news/documentary work?
