10/9/2008 2:07:46 AM

It looks completely retarded to me.

i have very low expectations of it.

10/9/2008 2:12:19 AM

did you not like In Living Color? if its anything like that it should be good

10/9/2008 2:24:06 AM

WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU EVER CONSIDER WATCHING THIS

THIS IS THE STUPIDEST FUCKING SHIT IVE SEEN IN YEARS

HOW CAN THIS POSSIBLY BE FUNNY TO ANYBODY

10/9/2008 5:09:57 AM

is it possible for a show made by black people to be racist against black people?

b/c the previews of this show look absolutely racist

10/9/2008 7:41:02 AM

David Alan Grier is a funny guy. But this just looks stupid.

10/9/2008 10:03:27 AM

the last time i laughed at david allan grier he was being folded like a piece of origami by some kid

10/9/2008 10:06:19 AM

10/9/2008 10:21:20 AM

i really wanted this to be good, and i gave it a chance, but this shit was fucking terrible.

10/16/2008 2:05:51 AM

I guess comedy central is still trying to catch that chappell show lightning again.

you'd think they would have given up after the cesspool that mencia show turned out to be.

10/16/2008 2:20:52 AM

i missed it was it any good?

10/16/2008 2:46:27 AM

well, i don't really like the comparison, because i've never seen anything funny from mencia, but there were a few commercials for chocolate news that gave me a chuckle, like the tandem bike drive by (which wasn't in this episode, so maybe there is a very very very faint glimmer of hope),

10/16/2008 2:47:58 AM

Saw part of it... wasn't especially bad, but it really wasn't funny either.

It managed to walk the line between funny and annoying.

i don't know if you're serious or trolling, if you're trolling then you saw my comment two posts up from yours, and are just being annoying. if you are serious, you just didn't bother to read the post 2 up from you

10/16/2008 2:52:59 AM

i must have just missed that post, cause i didnt see the show tonight, and since i made the thread, i'm obviously curious about it...i'm guessing based on how they do TV nowadays, they will re-show it a number of times this week so I can catch part of it and realize how much it apparently sucks

10/16/2008 3:17:02 AM

yeah, i'm sure they will reair it many many times in the coming weeks, and i'm even willing to give th next episode a watch, but this one was pretty pathetic

10/16/2008 3:35:19 AM

I wonder what the world would think if white people started demanding all sorts of free shit and handouts, accusing everyone of not respecting them enough, and then started propagating our own absolutely ridiculous stereotypes despite the fact that it negates everything we've been trying to claim about ourselves?

ONE OF US WOULD PROBABLY MAKE THIS SHOW

10/16/2008 9:30:35 AM

I'm still hoping for something mildly entertaining
it was nice to see another DAG maya angelou appearance, that brought me back

10/19/2008 5:19:58 PM

David Allan Grier is stuck in that mode of trying waaaay too hard to be funny. If it doesn't come naturally, give it the fuck up. This also applies to Tommy Davidson.

10/19/2008 5:49:05 PM

this is horrible

11/5/2008 10:54:31 PM

The only funny thing this show has done so far was the opener to tonight's episode: *wait five seconds with camera on Grier* ... "HOLY SHIT."

I laughed, but REALLY wanted to change the channel shortly after. But for some reason my roommate seems to like this shit.

11/5/2008 10:57:10 PM

the stand up part in the beginning is pretty funny, but the skits are really bad and not funny.

11/6/2008 4:09:35 PM

this show makes me feeling like punching a dead baby

11/6/2008 4:11:00 PM

^What's the point of punching a baby if it's dead?

11/6/2008 4:33:09 PM
