While waiting for Person Of Interest to start, I had Rob tuned in. It was awful. Whoever watched the pilot and said "OK, let's air it", needs a remedial course in what constitutes entertainment.

That was the worst POS I've seen in a long time, if not ever. They developed the premise and charactars hideously & the writing was miserable.

You have to admit though, if their target audience is people who enjoy shows about Mexican stereotypes, they've got a hit.

Where was the chihuahua? I demand to see a chihuahua with my Mexican stereotypes!

...but not "ha ha" funny.

Mr. Schneider can be very funny in supporting roles.

But when he's the main character, I don't bother watching.

I agree, mostly. The chick in The Animal was hot and John C McGinley was goddamned hilarious in it.

Act like Rob Schneider is attractive? The prostitutes in Hollywood don't get paid nearly enough for this Herculean of acting feats.

This bugs me. Why do Farkers never caption their pictures or otherwise give some clue as to who the person is? File names usually give it away, but that's just obnoxious.

I just kept shouting "Teinteresa Los Blanquilos!" as I fapped to her. Whether or not it's her actual name didn't slow me down a bit.

Listen to me. You can thank Sandler for pulling his career from the jaws of a last embrace like some sort of genius sorcerer and providing such an amazing resurrection. No matter what "comedic acting" we think is all the rage, 2010 is over. Move on. You can take your overrated men's club, paper lion hacks like Oswalt and Carlin with their "cerebral" humor and all that jazz. I'm listening to the comedians who'll surprise me when they come out of the blue. Thunder is what the applause will sound like and you all will continue to be amazed by this guy's career longevity; he's a true marathon man. A true star!

I'd pay for a pay-per-view boxing match between Rob Schneider and Andy Dick. With no safety gear, of course, it doesn't count if they're wearing the padded helmets. I'd be paying to see blood.

I watched it, I've seen worse. And of course seeing Cheech Marin as the cuckolded father-in law is pretty amusing.

Let's be honest with eachother though. If a show, especially a comedy, is on a channel you can get for free the FARK Thespian committee (TM) will deride it mercilessly.
 
2012-01-13 11:54:12 AM
I'm just pissed off at the long-standing crutch of naming the character after the actor.

"Who's The Boss"
might've been the first time I noticed it, with Tony playing "Tony". Then "Spin City", and dozens, if not hundreds, of others. Now, it seems like just about every sit-com does this.

For $X grand an episode, can't you make yourself respond to a different name!?

I was scratching my head on that one.

THIS I sat through God knows how many hours of that PBS show with Gwyneth Paltrow and Mario Batali shamelessly hitting on Claudia just to see her jaunt around Spain.

Based on the comments of this thread about how awful it was and why it was awful, I can only assume that here in the US it will be a top 10 comedy and run for 5 seasons.

Rob is kinda funny. Maybe that isn't a popular thing to say, but yeah he is funny. Remember Deuce Bigalow, Male Gigalo? Terrible movie, but God bless Rob Schneider for giving it his all and trying to make it funny. It is a sterile funny, but to tell you the truth, I find him funnier than Mike Myers.
 
2012-01-13 12:24:49 PM
Sue me, but I thought Deuce Bigalow was funny. Not quite Happy Gilmore hilarious, but still funny.

It's definitely not a popular thing to say; but I agree. Saw him do stand-up back in the "makin' copies" days and he was really funny. His jokes may not be smart/witty or whatever, but his delivery makes people laugh. That's funny.
