remember when rick mercer be funny . 22 minute be a great show when rick mercer be on it and make in canada be a great show once too . talk to american be such a funny special too . but like my friend say rick mercer wake up one day and wasn not funny any more i think that day be when rick mercer report go on the air . what be the point of this show . rick mercer read wacky fake headline and show picture of bad shed that people mail in and then spend about 20 minute of the 30 minute show go somewhere and just talk to people hop to say something witty or clever enough to get on tv and maybe even make somebody somewhere laugh . be suppose to be interested in see rick mercer visit a gymnastics team and then try to do some of their move and and then suck at it on purpose while try desperately to be funny . rick mercer get old or just lose interest or just ain not funny any more . even his classic rant bit have lose all their bite and humor . you can say that about cbc comedy in general though because how many year have they be stick air farce on tv to deliver the same kind of useless joke .
