Wanda at Large

I love Wanda! There is no doubt that she is very very funny! I watched her on comedy central a lot and she was amazing and so funny, so I was very excited when I heard that she was getting her own show!

But her show is indeed "Wanda". It is the real deal, but It seems very watered down, possibly censored. Normally there is 2 or 3 VERY GOOD laughs in each episode that keep me coming back for the first season and I think that the supporting players need time to grow. They just fall in the background as of now.

So the second season should be something to look forward to!!!

Just watched the pilot episode of Wanda at Large. I have never in my life laughed SO hard at a pilot episode of a sit-com! If the writing stays this fresh this show will be wildly successful!!

Every comment on this show thus far has given it rave reviews, but I really didn't find it all that great. Of course it's better than some 2002-2003 FOX shows, like 'The Pitts' for one, but when it comes to FOX comedians, 'The Bernie Mac Show' is alot better.

Wanda Sykes (Hawkins) is a funny comedian, I've seen a show of hers on Comedy Central, but the character, and enough of her, comes off way too annoying. And my biggest griefs are that, though it's only been 3-4 episodes, character development still seems stifled.

Phil Morris does his best with his easily cliched character, unfortunately, no matter how much fire he sends Skye's character's way, you know the 2 will have a dating relationship. JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER SHOW. You knew Eric & Donna were gonna hook up on That 70's Show. J.D. & Elliot on Scrubs. Ross & Rachel on Friends. So on and so on.

Overall the shows is alright, maybe 5-6/10, but it doesn't have '5 year' material. Fans of Morris won't have to worry about this performance overshadowing his Jackie Chiles character on Seinfeld.

There's only been two episodes of this show, but, from those two, this show is one of the best comedies - definitely the best comedy to come out of the last few years.

Wanda Sykes plays Wanda Hawkins. She lives in the same apartment building with her sister-in-law (Tammy Lauren) and her sister-in-law's son. Her wit and sarcasm lands her a job at a local TV station as a reporter.

Wanda Sykes is HILARIOUS. Both episodes kept me laughing from start to finish. If you aren't watching it, I really suggest you do. With the crazy stuff going on today, we need a good laugh. And this show delivers with excess. It's not just a show for black or white, young or old, etc.

Great show so far. Has the makings of an all-time best comedy show.

Rating: 10/10

The most entertaining part of this show is Wanda's reporting segment. These bits are both as funny and as biting as anything Michael Moore did on "TV Nation" or "The Awful Truth". He must be kicking himself for not coming up with what Wanda did in the first episode's gun control story.

Let's hope Fox doesn't catch on and start dumbing down and toning down this show. It's a welcome relief from all the "reality TV" crap.
