That's My Bush!

Really disappointing. The sharp wit that makes South Park so great is completely missing. I was hoping for genuine laughs at the expense of GW Bush but instead got no laughs from the cliché antics and generally bland, mushy feel of the show.

That's My Bush! needs to be introduced to South Park the movie.

Only today have I seen all eight episodes of this hilarious show and I love it! Although I can imagine it being a solid show if continued, I think eight episodes is just the right number of episodes to quit on before it gets too repetitive. What I love about the show is how Trey Parker and Matt Stone don't focus as much on politics as they do on parody of situation comedies, ranging from "All in the Family" to "Friends." (Best example of this is episode seven, where the common sit-com plot of getting characters stuck in a small space to settle their differences is in effect.)

The sit-com spoofs are done very well and I think it would be overkill if it focused too much on Bush, since I'm sure Trey and Matt wouldn't mind doing it with any president. The characters, while formulaic, are developed very well, and you get to feel for them not as real people in the world, but as fictional characters, giving you a chance to take a break from all the political wars between all kinds of people in the Bush years. If you have a sense of humor and don't mind removing your political affiliation away for the viewing pleasure of the show, I suggest you go get the DVD!

The first time I saw this show, I thought it was terrible. And it is. But you have to understand the underlying genius behind this show for you to 'get it'. Stone and parker are not trying to make a respectable show here, hell, they arent even making a decent show. In fact, this isnt really a show at all. I mean, it has plotlines and scripts and cameras and stuff, but the whole reason why this show exists is to make fun of every other stupid sitcom, which is why its so friggin lame. Think about it, its only just began and they have the wacky neighbor, the special guest star (Charlton Heston), the very special episodes (i.e. the death penalty morality lesson). They could have hitler join the cast, and it wouldn't end. That's how good this sitcom spoof is!

Basically what I'm trying to say is this show is so absolutely god awful, that its entertaining, and its so god awful because its based on the cliche's of other sitcom's! get it? this show is just one, huge joke. But a good joke.

This show does tackle social issues. Contrary to popular opinion TMB addresses issues such as abortion, euthanasia,SDI and the environment just to name a few. The crazy antics of the TMB whitehouse are really not that outlandish if you consider the last eight years under slick willie.

This show is well written, well acted and just damn funny for republicans and democrats alike.

If you are not into toilet humor, slapstick, and political parody this show is not for you. Otherwise enjoy!

Even though I have only seen one episode, I can already tell this is a new smash show. Trey Parker and Matt Stone, who created one of the finest and funniest shows in history, South Park, bring a show that principally makes fun of 2 things- 1 (of course), George W. Bush, the imbecilic guy who lives at 1600; 2, TV shows. The show takes from other shows (like Married With Children, That's My Bob, etc) and the more you get the joke, the more you'll like this show. Kudos to the two creators, executive producers, co-writers Matt and Trey and also star Timothy Bottoms for presenting such a instant classic. By the way, first episode has laughs scattered about, but the aborted fetus (voiced by Parker I think due to the Cartman likeness of the voice) steals the episode, and hopefully it won't be it's last episode.
