Real Rob

Someone obviously watched a lot of "curb your enthusiasm"....problem is, when you are not a comedic genius & try to give your show some "street cred" with live cutaways to your stand up...which is as observational and funny as a new comic anywhere near you... He was cute in Dr Dredd I guess... But when there is a "stalker..and it is about as believable as a stalker for a dancer in a Nickel Back video. .This is comedy garbage..so, my opinion only..clumsy nonsense.

This show has some good laughs in it, but occasionally they drop in a scene that is just terrible. If you want a little over-the-top, silly comedy that can be a bit inappropriate and awkward at times, but laugh-out-loud funny, this is something that might interest you. It has Rob's sense of humor throughout, but occasionally the acting is a little bland; but for the most part everyone does great. The show parodies the life, and privilege, of being a celebrity in Hollywood, and does so by intentionally being both over-the-top and pompous, but in some ways more realistic than some want to admit. It really leans on the celebrity perspective and uses that to absurdity. It has the feel of a show that will only get better as it matures, I definitely enjoyed the laughs and I hope you do as well.

Rob Schneider financed the first series and his mates played their parts for free. He then fired his agent who said he was nuts, but he should have listened. This is just not funny... or entertaining.

Schneider was recently interviewed on Howard Stern. He and his wife came across very well, so I thought I'd give their show a shot. Netflix paid him off for the series he made then financed the second series... but God knows who is doing the green-lighting over there because they need to be versed on what comedy is.

It's about as self-indulgent and as preposterous as you can get. The script is drab and the plots are derivative and unoriginal.

I just can't imagine that anyone is sitting down to this and laughing or being in any way entertained. As far as I can see it's simply Rob marching from scene to scene, being a dick and annoying people to provoke some kind of comedic value where none exists.

Rob and his wife seem like nice people and he's a talented actor. This won't be remembered for anything of value, sorry.

Rob Schneider and his trophy wife Patricia are writing, directing and starring the over-the-top (yet deliberately pretending to be casual) "reality" comedy called "Real Rob".

The situations are impossible (for example Rob forces his assistant to have a ...vasectomy, just to see how he feels, before he does one himself!) in an effort to parody the life of Hollywood celebrities and the special treatment they usually get.

It is funny, but sometimes it crosses the line to absurd and ridiculous.

It has a bright photography (that I like) and good rhythm but because of the single camera setup, there are countless continuity errors that might become distractive. Just saw the 5th episode and his assistant is talking to Rob's wife wearing a hat, sunglasses and a ...fake mustache and in every cut he is wearing a completely different combination of them! (Yet someone might find funny these goofs and laugh even more.) The 1st season consists of only 8 episodes. Hopefully it might get a 2nd season although there is a possibility to become repetitive.

Overall: Silly yet funny. I'll keep watching...

Every high-rating review on here was posted by Rob himself, his team or actual brain-dead chimps who derive pleasure from watching tortuously bad shows. If you haven't watched Real Rob and are reading this review, I have some really important advice for you: DO NOT WATCH REAL ROB. Trust me. I'm speaking from first-hand experience. After having watched just a couple hours of this show and then promptly REMOVING it from my Netflix watch history, I'm now noticing some troubling effects it's had on my life.

For example: some of my peers whom I work with have started DISTANCING themselves from me. The other day I got a text from one of them after work straight up calling me an a**hole for no reason. And then a few days later--and believe this--my mom actually stopped calling me by my NAME and instead started referring to me as a "GERM"? She continues to call me that to this very day! And at home my wife looks like she feels DISGUSTED being near me every night in bed now, MY OWN SON will no longer look at me in the eyes, and just a few minutes ago I tried to get my old dog to go on a walk with me and even SHE refuses to go near me! WTF?! That dog actually really liked me too!

I'm honestly sickened by the fact this kind of thing even exists on the internet. Real Rob is not a Netflix series, but rather a modern-day PLAGUE! Writing this review right now has me in cold sweats for having to think about how rotten a person Rob Schneider is for conjuring up such a vile medium for his "humor." I beg you, DO NOT WATCH REAL ROB or even consider witnessing a SINGLE SECOND of it! You will regret it for the rest of your life!!!
