Dog Bites Man

OK, I realize that some people wont like this show, everyone has their own opinions...but as for MY opinion...I think it's the best comedy I've seen in a long, long while. It is a different brand of humor than a lot of people are probably used to. And it took me a couple episodes to get into it, but after I learned about all the characters and the plot, I loved it! The best part is the cast...I can't even pick a favorite because they feed off of each other so well, all of them have an equal amount of funny lines throughout each episode. Give this show a chance and don't be so close minded when it comes to comedy. I give it a resounding 9!

This has to be one of the funniest programs on television. The actors are all VERY natural and are able to deliver subtle, yet hilarious comments throughout the show. It follows closely in the footsteps of shows and movies such as "The Office" and "Best in Show." It is easily one of the best programs Comedy Central has created. If you don't find "Dog Bites Man" funny, it's likely because you do not have a dry sense of humor. The comedy isn't slapstick, in your face, or obnoxious, but mature. Some of the jokes and cracks made are truly hilarious, but it may take you a second to get it. One of the actors in the show, Zach Galifianakis, appeared in the Comedy Central movie and documentary "Comedians of Comedy." His humor as a comedian comes through greatly in "Dog Bites Man." I would recommend this show to anyone who enjoys sarcasm. However, if you are the type that would rather see a pie thrown in someone's face or fart jokes, "Dog Bites Man" most definitely will not be for you.

I don't know....maybe now that I'm in my 30's I am regressing. I think this show is funny. Some of the lines are of such basic lowbrow humor, I find myself laughing out loud. They speak to each other like I do with my friends. Wait a minute...I guess that means I have a bad sense of humor! Oh well, i stick by my comment. Being a fan of Zach's, I find his character right on. It's a far cry from his character on Tru Calling. He had a special on Comedy Central though, that is right up there with his Alan character. I would like to see more of him. The actors do a great job feeding off each others' lines. This show is so dry at times, I cannot tell what's been scripted. If this is how news is actually made (and I sometimes think it is), we're in a lot of trouble!

Okay, here's the problem I had with this show. I am a huge fan of comedy. I am a professional entertainer whose act relies a great deal on comedy. So there I was, watching a show that is supposed to BE a comedy, on a television network devoted TO comedy, a network that has the word "comedy" in its NAME, and yet I didn't laugh. Not one laugh, chuckle, guffaw, giggle, snicker, snort...nothing. I only gave it two points because the one girl, Andrea Savage, is a hottie. That, and the fact that I was hoping for something to be funny at some point, are the only reasons I watched the first episode all the way through. I am sure when the creators thought up this show, it was a great idea, but unfortunately, this idea just did NOT translate into anything resembling something humorous or funny. Comedy Central: This is the time you should eat your young. Don't allow "Dog Bites Man" to live.

I frequent the UCB Theatre and the other day I finally got to see the UCB 4 together for the first time. They are amazing. I am so happy that this show is doing well and I love MATT WALSH (he's my favorite of the 4).

The most important thing that you have to remember about the show is that ALL, let me repeat that, ALL of the dialog is IMPROVISED. Every scene has its goals but the show is 90% improv. The comedy is quick and SMART, instead of Dane Cook crap. This is comedy at its best.

The show provides a nice change from other Comedy Central shows (ie. Blue Collar TV) and is probably most similar to Reno 911 (i'm not sure if that is improvised).

Don't CANCEL THIS COMEDY CENTRAL!!!
