NBC had a new comedy on last night, "Thank God You're Here". It was by far one of the worst shows I have seen in a long time, but sadly for me there was nothing else of any value any better on TV.
So as I sat and crocheted, I watched this really stupid show, and in the last say 6 minutes I laughed harder than I have laughed in many years. It was so funny. The end was so ridiculous, it was funny in a silly sort of way.
Anyhow, I was just wondering if anyone else ventured into the sublime of comedy last night with me? It was not my usual type of comedy or TV show, but I did enjoy the end.

I saw about half of the first hour, and all of the second one. As I expected, it desended into some icky humor, but the parts that were clean, I was just rolling. I adore Richard Kind, he was just about dying on stage, but it was so funny! And I about split a gut at his Scottish chef that moved to Ireland to "get a better accent".

Bob and I enjoyed it. It was light and silly.

I watched the first one, but fell asleep after Monique in the second. The first had me rolling, especially the end with all four. I thought it was going to be really dumb too, but it ended up being pretty funny. It's nothing I'll make a point to watch every week, but if it's the only thing on and I have nothing better to do, I'll probably tune in.

Monique in the second one was really bad in her stand-alone segment, but it got better after that. She actually ended up taking the "lovely plastique" award statue at the end.

I didn't see the second one. It was the end of the first one with all 4 of them. When he lifted up "Donut girl" 's skirt and she bent over, I about lost it.

Yup, that was pretty funny. I especially liked when "Human Cockroach" kept loosing his antennae - "I can't see!"

My hubby came out to see what was so funny. I had just finished complaining about the show, and I was crying. Every time he lost the antenna I lost it too!!!

Dan and Jeremy watched the first one. Jeremy was supposed to be doing homework and kept sneaking peeks and laughing. Dan said it was horrible. I came home after choir just in time to see the second one - Dan was Not Happy because it pre-empted The Black Donneley's, but he watched it anyway. Either that or The Bachelor, which is NO WAY IN HELL (me, not him) or David Caruso  .
So anyway, it was faintly amusing but I managed to read while watching it. Which meant it was not all that enthralling.

we watched it after Deal or No Deal and it had me laughing. It was cute and silly and stupid. Lots of fun.
