TV Funhouse

There is no doubt that comedy central has gone down hill... but this show is awesome. I don't think there's been a time I haven't laughing during this show. It has great writing and I think corrupting children is the funniest. "Places to find Christmas presents", "Jokamel", "Stedman"... this show is genius.

From his days on Saturday Night Live to his success on Conan, Robert Smigel has shown his amazing ability to create memorable characters. This show was very witty and low brow at the same time. My favorite episodes involved Triumph the Insult Comic Dog (a Robert Smigel creation) and a lizard who doesn't want to mate. Robert Goulet does a great job playing himself (as a pal of Triumph) and I would recommend this for everyone except young kids. There are great cartoons in this show but they aren't for children.

This show is great. it is 2nd funniest show on comedy central(behind south park), and maybe the second funniest on T.V. the anipals are hillarious, and Doug is great. the cartoons are even better. this show is great. rating= 10 out of 10

I was skeptical at first--the weekly intro with the host in various positions while people walk around him isn't great--but this show is hilarious and gets better each week. Lots of shows try to be sick, but very few are sick AND funny in a new enough way to make them watchable each week (South Park being the obvious king of the genre). The show consists of both live action, with the kiddie-style host "Doug" and his puppets, and short clip segments (many of which are cartoons). Happily, Smigel doesn't just fall back on the Ambiguously Gay Duo or Triumph; his new creations, like the Joe Camel Pokemon take-off, are very funny if a little over the top. I do wish he wouldn't use real kids in his skits, as most of them are clearly adult-oriented. Comedy Central has had more than enough bombs lately, but "TV Funhouse" is definitely worth watching.

This show totally warped my mind! I've never seen anything on television that could top how raunchy and offensive this show was. I thought the characters, the acting, and the writing were all dug up from some junior high school playground. Sexist, perverted, and mysogonistic, this is one great show! I'd recommend it to anyone who thinks that television is just here to keep us in a perpetual state of numbness. Trust me, this one will wake you up! It's amazing that in these PC times, a show like this is allowed to be on the air! Rating: 10/10
