what can one say about a tv show whose main objective be to be a deliberately awful a possible and and that somehow be suppose to be brilliant comedy . i barely make it through this disc and and i be astonish at how truly awful this stuff be . the only time i laugh out loud be when john c. reilly show up a dr. bruse . reilly be a very good actor and and it be the only time during the show that i actually laugh heartily . if i be john agent and i would recommend to him not to do this show anymore and a it belittle him a an actor and artist . fred willard also show up and and while i love mr. willard work and he can not rescue the scene he in and which be pretty lame . the series isn not completely devoid of laugh and but aside from john reilly work and i laugh maybe 3 time during the whole season . the series be more creepy than funny . it a pretty poor indication of a show quality when the episode be a mere 11 minute long and and i keep check the dvd to see when it be go to be over . the eleven minute seem long than go with the wind at time . the target of the satire seem to be local cable commercial and which be actually funny than most of the stuff here . the gravy robber be one of the dumb ( not funny dumb ) sketch i ever saw . the editing and if one can call it that and be not do with any rhyme or reason and even in an artistic sense . it all just random and and it isn not funny or interesting . this be not brilliant comedy and a some say here . i be get really tire of people simply think since this show ( and others of it ilk ) polarise people and that automatically make it art . some nimrod here on imdb actually compare this show to stravinsky the rite of spring and in term that when the rite of spring first appear and the audience be shock at the performance of it and and it split the audience . that comparison be so mind bogglingly off that one stagger at it . a couple of rule of life . 1. just because something be controversial doesn not make it brilliant . 2. just because something isn not mainstream doesn not mean it good . 3. just because something like this be weird doesn not make it good . 4. just because someone doesn not like this doesn not mean they watch friend or two and a half men . 5. just because something polaris people doesn not make it art . some have say it deliberately surreal and but it isn not . it just lazy and incoherent . it have some similar quality to mtv2 wonder showzen and except wonder showzen have some real creative transition in the first season ( the 2nd season wasn not as good . the drug they take must have wear off ) . i think many who think this show be some sort of misunderstood artistic masterpiece be just read way too much into it and and it the product of their own imagination rather than any brilliance on the part of tim and eric .
