I think it's moronic and childish. I mean, puppets? It would've been more interesting if they just used the audio tracks from these "OMGAH FUCKINHI LAREEUZ!!!LMAOOLMAOO" phone calls, which aren't even too funny on their own. This show obviously panders to the undereducated american public and 8th graders. I just can't reiterate enough...it's a stupid show. Opinions?

You know Psydd, I saw this topic and I saw that you started it... Instantly my heart sank. I assumed that you had been lured over to the darkside with delusions of candy and grandieur.

FORTUNATELY, I didn't kill myself on the spot based on the assumption that one of my favorite people online had fallen victom to a show of such low value.

Comedy Central USED to put out good stuff... UCB, Strangers With Candy, Viva Variety, and Ab Fab to name a few... No wait forget Ab Fab.

Sigh... Has America REALLY gotten caught up in in the reality TV craze to allow drivel of this low calibur can worm it's way on to TV? Or are the producers like eight years too late to catch the tail end of the Jerky Boys craze? Either way, it's programming like this that makes me sad to be an American.

well,I thought parts of it were pretty funny,I dont see whats so bad about its.Its a damn show designed to make people laugh,not ponder the our existence.Granted most of it was stupid,but there were some parts of it that I foudn worth watching.Honestly this show isnt any worse than the man show,which glorifies drunkeness and the objectification of women.And I wasnt a big fan of Viva Variety,well some parts were ok, it was the first time I'd ever heard "pig @#%$".

Who could forget Viva Variety, with our cool ass pal, Johnny Blue Jeans!?!

I caught it for the first time late las night and I have a lukewarm reaction to it.

It's a great idea to have puppets doing stupid stuff, I likethat. But the prank calls they played simply weren't funny. The puppets were the only thing that kept me from turning it off.
And if they really got some good and funny parnk calls, I think the audio alone should do the talking, the visualization takes your attention away from listening.

For crank calls, stick to radio and tapes.

Um, get your ass FRANCHISED®

Strangers with candy sucked.

Psydd · Guest

LIAR! THOU SHALT NOT SPEAK ILL OF STRANGERS WITH CANDY!! Well, the first half of the first season yes, but the rest was GOLD!!!!

Hackascii · Guest

If by gold you mean "Something I crapped out after eating a box of fruitloops" then yes, you are correct.

NBGreenday · Guest

of strangers with candy was the show with that ass nasty lookin whore who decided to go back to highschool to have misadventures,then yes I agree with the dirty russian.

heheh principle blackman. In Soviet Union, TV watches YOU!

Senses dull now staring at the wall
It must be a defect
Going numb and I can't feel at all.
