Anyone else watch the pilot last night? Wasn't Mick Jagger a hoot? |

Darn! I had planned to watch it, and then forgot entirely. Does it look like it's going to be good? |

Looks like it has potential. Funny as in stoopid funny.
In Mpls, ABC will be rebroadcasting the pilot on Friday the 5th so they might be doing so in your area too.

I watched it while I worked on some jewelry projects and thought it was hilarious.
"Security in that building is tighter than Gary's turban"
"I don't wear a turban. And stop calling me Gary"
Of course, I'd already made up my mind before I even saw it that I was going to like it. I think it's like Earl...you are going to either laugh your butt off, or turn the channel. No middle ground.

When I saw the "I'm with meshugganah" t-shirt during the previews, I laughed so hard I thought I'd hurt something. I think I need to watch this.  |

Original title was something like "Let's Steal Mick Jagger's Stuff"

The Mick Jagger cameos were hilarious. I wish he were doing more than one episode. I personally don't find him at all attractive, but he was doing a parody of himself, so it was really funny. Kind of like Shatner singing funny.

That's not Shatner doing a parody, that's how the man really sings. Don't you remember his stellar singing on that album he released in the 70's?

The singing etc., was real, painfully real (Erik, you are a sadist!) but if you look at the things he's doing now (Boston Legal, PriceLine), he appears to be making fun of himself and The Personna.

I know what you meant - the singing still sucks, but in the 70's he thought it was good, now he knows it's crap

I could never get into this show. We watched the first couple of episodes and then canceled our Tivo subscription to it.
