Pauly

Dreadful sitcom which has seems to have (thankfully) faded from public memory. Pauly Shore plays a man living at home with his widowed father. His father marries a hot young blonde who Pauly lusts after...but it's him MOM! Predictable "jokes" and complication ensue.

Truly sick and tasteless. Every single joke was unfunny and painfully obvious. This also has the dubious award for having more jokes about womens breasts than any other sitcom in history. I watched only two shows in utter horror. This played on FOX. I realize their standards were low but THIS low???? Completely forgotten and will hopefully stay that way. I wish IMDb had negative numbers....

This show aired for only five episodes according to the Trivia page. It seems like it was only two or three. Pauly Shore was playing a 30 something adolescent whose world is rocked when his dad brings hope a hot young wife. I seem to recall there was an annoying step-sibling brought into the mix too. This show aired on Fox in 1997 and while being no "smash hit" it was decent enough that I was looking for it to be on the next week, yet it was gone and never to return. I don't see how the show could have lasted too long. The whole premise had been done before and Pauly Shore, while he has a following, does not appeal to mainstream America.

This show was so fantastic. It really showed how funny Pauly Shore could be. It's a pity it got canceled when it had yet to have the chance to find it's key audience. There should be a law against that kind of Bull Swine. Or at least a law that says all canceled shows should get their own DVD. Damn! That would be a lot of dvds. VIVA LAS PAULY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I appeared on an episode of this show that never aired before the series was prematurely canceled. I was cast with about 10 other actors who were primarily taken from the Dragon Talent agency which specialized in gender variant talent. The premise of the episode called for Pauly to judge a beauty contest before discovering the gag which was that the contestants were all drag queens. We had a lot of fun filming the show over the course of three days. Lyle Wagonner and Shirley Hemphill were guest stars in that episode. I remember sitting backstage with them between takes. The show was a bit asinine so it is no wonder that it was prematurely canceled. I only wish that my episode had a chance to air.
