i haven't seen dave foley in a single promo
so that's an exciting bit of news
i'm curious to see how long the scenes will be, just from an improv perspective (though the cues will obviously not be improv, so meh) 4/6/2007 4:01:27 AM |

get ready for a lot of suckage. Hopefully they try to pick people trained in improv, but just because someone is a good funny actor or comedian doesn't mean they can do anything in improv 4/6/2007 9:17:00 AM |

one of the chicks from all the christopher guest movies was in one of the ads. at the very least she should be good.
jason alexander has done broadway stuff, so he should probably be decent too.

shows alright, but the schetches kinda drag sometimes (particularly if they have someone crappy). monique and kevin nealan both did well. joel mchale was a bit disappointing except for the customs warmup.

too much down time. cut out the host. leave the judge, but give him less talking time now that he wont have the host to chat with. add more skits. 4/9/2007 10:24:23 PM |

yeah the 1 minute of dick sucking after they are done could be done away with. 4/9/2007 10:25:52 PM |

the host said "i'm not even going to ask" so many times... and a few times he asked anyways
if the host had any duties they needed to keep, it could be passed on to the judge.
they really spend too much of the show time focusing on things other than the point of the show. 4/9/2007 10:27:27 PM |

it realllllllllllly has potential to be great
wrong cast though and wrong comedians
the whos line people would be great, or some of the good SNL people as well
just really disappointing although the high altitude climb one was funny 4/9/2007 10:48:57 PM |

that marriage counselor shit was painful to watch. As a rule, improv doesn't translate to tv. 4/10/2007 12:04:59 AM |

I saw the game show segment with Moesha & it sucked, so I turned it.
It was way too rigid. It was like the co-host couldn't react to what Moesha said & couldn't improv.
If there going to do an improve show, all the actors should, i don't know.. improv? 4/10/2007 12:09:20 AM |

DVR was busy last night so I only got to watch the first half of the first episode...I thought Wayne Knight and Bryan Cranston were pretty good. Will watch the second episode later. Yeah it could be tightened up with less fluff more funny though. Its available online so I might try watching the rest there.
By the way, if it wasnt obvious this isnt an original idea, this is based on an Australian show of the same name. 4/10/2007 4:40:12 AM |

The last 2 episodes were light years better than the first two. It's worth giving this show a 2nd chance if anyone wrote it off early on. 4/18/2007 9:25:59 PM |
