Kid Notorious

Kid Notorious is a tribute to a great man who has had many unfair trials in his life, but has always come out on top. Robert Evans is an extraordinary man. Kid Notorious gives us a rarely seen insight into the "glamour" of Hollywood life. The fact that Robert Evans still has a sense of humor and can laugh at himself after all he has been through is an admirable thing. Hilarious, often cutting edge, never boring, this show is one of a kind, and a must see.

I watched this show on accident and found myself laughing out loud more often than not. Evans is so slick and "Hollywood-ish" that it works like a charm. The supporting characters of Tollie Mae, Puss-Puss, and English are hilarious and the outlandish stories and adventures just keep getting better. Animated or not, this show is funnier than most of the sitcoms out there right now. Worth watching.

I agree, Kid Notorious is so good I wonder if it will catch on. I'm recording as much as I can before they yank it like they did Dr. Katz. The first one I saw was with Jacques Chirac and it just railed on the French, talk about timely! I laughed so hard and was hooked. Only the coolest show would have Chirac, Rumsfeld, Kim Jung Il and Slash in it. As for the racial stereotype, lighten up, Tully Mae is one of the best characters. Besides, everyone is stereotyped just as they are on the Simpsons and South Park. "Ain't it Great! You bet your ass it is!"

So of course, I expect it to be cancelled, and am taping episodes already. I have been a loooong time fan of Law and Order, and rarely miss a show, but I have blown it off for Kid Notorious.

This show is bold and daring and that's one reason I love it. They aren't afraid to make fun of anyone--actresses, agents, singers, rappers. Maybe their "peeps" have put out the bad press.

One naysayer on IMDB praised the unfunny Crank Yankers. Well, what can I say to that? "A chacun son gout." So don't spoil this for us.

Several people said that it has inside jokes. I DISAGREE! Who needs to be a Hollywood insider to know that Hollywood churns out garbage because of agent-engineered deals and box-office perception? Who needs to be a Hollywood insider to know that actresses have everything lifted and tucked and collagened? Or that said actresses drop and pick up projects on a whim? Aren't such stories the entire contents of People Magazine and Entertainment Weekly?

In the first episode, the "mafia" come after Kid to get back their investment in a movie. He reinvests it in a musical version of The Godfather, featuring rappers Kid meets in jail. Who doesn't know that turning perfectly good movies into musicals is the rage these days, or that these adaptations are sometimes ridiculous? Isn't the idea of The Godfather as a musical with rappers funny? I think it's hilarious. Maybe you just have to really enjoy movies, or maybe you have to have a good sense of irony.

One person mentioned a joke, "This is one of the most remote villages in the world...hey, look, I got full bars on my cell phone!" Now, what's wrong with that? It's exactly the type of joke you'd find on The Simpsons, about the omnipresence of technology and/or the importance people place on having it that way.

I laughed at this show as much as a good Simpons episode (unfortunately, not as frequent as they used to be). It's a really funny show. It makes me laugh out loud. The pacing is fast and the jokes are funny. I hope it makes it to syndication.

I know that network tv listens to the whims of viewers, but Comedy Central usually knows better.

Everyone has heard about the amazing life of Robert Evans and this makes for great possibilities in this show. This show is a great spoof of "Hollyweird" and how movies and TV shows are really made. inside info and references make this a great show. I hope this show gets a chance to have a good long run for many years. There is nothing better than intelligent TV and this is one of the best.
