The Pitts

This show is funny. It's a "ok I'm going to sit down and be a dumbass for 30 minutes. I'm going to laugh at silly jokes" I think the jokes are funny, and the actors are good. If you thought this was going to be "The simpsons: real life!" You were sadly mistaken.

This is what people do stupidly. They watch spin-offs and tv shows made by producers and directors of popular tv shows expecting a double of the original. Anything remotely new or original is "unclean,unclean!" and must be taken off the air immediatly.

I am a fan of the utterly bizzare in the entertainment industry , and yes The Pitts is one bizzare show...just like FOX's past sitcoms Get A Life with Chris Elliot and Family Guy..only difference THEY WERE FUNNY

The Pitts is a sitcom with one joke..and it's not even that funny...we've had the family with bad luck done so much better in Married With Children, Malcome In The Middle , The Simpsons , Family Guy , wait a minute isn't this a coicidence..these are all FOX sitcoms?

And the humor is over the top and weird..but it's more stupid than funny..like the mentioned sitcoms above..it requires at least a tv episode plot structure , not just rapid fire sequences of bad luck...so far it's only been 2 episodes..and i've kinda just sat looking embarrassed more than I laughed..actually this series reminds me of a 30 minute Saturday Night Live skit...thats all it is..a skit..stretched to 30 minutes..not a tv show

On the other hand...hey it's different..and we all know it will build somewhat of a cult status in the future..so I guess it's interesting..in that degree...but I doubt it will last long at all It probably would belong better on Comedy Central...they're more experienced in this type of ironic twisted humor

It's nice to see humour that isn't just off the wall...it is all over the place. I just love this show, and it's sad peple don't apreciate it. The concept is funny...where a family with luck worse then the unluckiest person. Is it far-fetched? dang skippy it is...that's the point. where normal things never happen, and the outlandish do...a show where something remote is also very likely. I also like the obvious gags and spoofs...like being possessed, terrorized by a obsessed girfriend/date. This is a gem, and despite the obvious cornyness, it's very clever and layed out. It will probily get canceled, cause people just don't get it...that's why we loose great shows like Family Guy....and keep bore fests like King of the Hill. The Pitts show...if something is to happen...no matter how remote...it will happen. I give this a 8.5 outta 10.

I like this show. The humor is funny, both the mom and the daughter are babes and script obviously has some good lines. The bad news is that the show is quickly wearing thin on the cartoon antics and the far-fetched situations. If the show is supposed to be a live-action cartoon, it really hit the mark, but to survive on Fox, the show needs to turn straight and maybe go into another direction. The son on the show is a funny holy terror, but the dad is just played way too dumb. Let's face it, at it's core, "The Pitts" may actually just be time filler may be cancelled with just one season under its belt. I mean, anyone remember an obscure FOX series called "Whoops!" which also was based on a one joke device. The series might have been a lot better as a cartoon, but I'm still catching every episode while I can and maybe taping a few before it's gone.

Ok, so the pilot may be a little weird, but come on what did you expect from the writers of the Simpsons? But it is an okay show with stupid slapstick comedy and dumb characters. I doubt this show is gonna last a long time.
