What Just Happened??!

I wish there were more shows like this. It's really in the vein of mockumentaries. I think Fred Savage was inspired casting as it has a Princess Bride feel, in that it never was a real book. I mean, it was, but it wasn't. Read the book. It's great. I think though that the show expects too much of the audience. But if you like mockumentaries, you'll get it.

I grew up watching "Wonder Years", and like when Fred would make a cameo/get work whenever he did (even in "Rules of Attraction", which really showed his potential range). But much like the last horrible short-lived game-show where Ricky Gervaise had to hideously contort his face into something that resembled tolerance for being around children, Fred's presence is made painfully boring due to a lack of good writing and a poor concept overall. Much like Brian Cranston, when Fred has good writers, he's actually quite good on camera. But that's the key...since on his own, he neither has the charisma, humor or experience to carry a show on his own personality or "wit". There really is very little positive to say about this show, since the concept is weird, the editing is horrendous (the lulls and spaces between "jokes" and audience reactions adds up to one big face-palm) and the writing is just plain awful. Fred really looks like he's trying to over-act to get SOME sort of laughs from the audience, but it doesn't come off as anything other than trying too hard. I know this all might sound harsh, but give the guy a good show and format...he'll be worth the investment.

This show is brilliant. And anyone who has given this show a negative review is either too stupid to get it the joke, or hasn't learned to button their shirt yet.

For those of you who don't understand what's going on, it's a takeoff on the Talking Dead, which is discussing The Walking Dead. In this case, "The Flare" does not exist but this is the AFTER show discussing it. I think Fred is doing a great job with this. I also enjoy when he ventures outside the studio. If you understand the concept, you would appreciate it much more!

This show is not a fantastic show. It's stupid, it's silly. It's nonsensical. But that's what I enjoy about it. It makes fun of itself. It makes fun of the after shows like talking dead. If the show gets cancelled I'm not going to lose any sleep but it's just a fun show. If you take it for that you'll enjoy it.
