The New Tom Green Show

I didn't think I would like "The New Tom Green Show," but it's pretty good. I guess Tom Green is our newer, wackier David Letterman. He really could do this show (or a version of it) for 20 or 30 years and become even better and more respected as time goes on. I think he has the right combination of intelligence and silliness to keep people interested for many decades.

Why hasn't anyone commented on the New Tom Green Show yet? OK, then I will comment on it. I like the New Tom Green Show. It is a funny show with Tom being himself rather than always yelling and making noises. And Glenn is a Hollywood Humplik.

Before I say anything about the show itself, it should be noted that I am a huge Tom Green fan. I consider him to be one of the funniest guys on the planet. He's a comedic genius. There has not been anyone like him since Andy Kaufman. Now that that's out of the way, on to the show...

"The New Tom Green Show" was hands down the best new show of 2003 and probably the greatest show MTV has ever aired (yes, even better than "Beavis and Butt-Head" was). Tom Green made the perfect talk show host and Glenn Humplik (or Hollywood Humplik, as Tom called him) was an excellent sidekick. Because of the good relationship between Tom and Glen, each episode was amazing. The show was smart, funny, and always entertaining. The guests actually seemed to be enjoying themselves as opposed to the guests on Letterman and Kimmel where they seem like they would rather be somewhere else. There will never be a never talk show like "The New Tom Green Show." The fact that MTV had the nerve to cancel it only after only two months makes me angry. I hate MTV now. The network execs should be ashamed for canceling such a fantastic show.

This show was hilarious...to me, it had the chance to rank among the greats of Late Night Talk shows. This beats the crap out of Late Night with Adam Corolla...that was boring...and I'm an open-minded person. Anyways, it aired at, if I can remember, 11pm pacific time...or it may of been 12. If MTV had aired it earlier in the evening and pushed it's reality crud to eleven, it would of been truly great. Tom Green can be a little annoying at times, but what he does is usually outrageously funny. Only if it came back. Every episode, Tom would host celebrity guests and one I remember is Little Jon...that was a good episode. Since his fan base is mostly teens, and since most teens go to sleep before 11, it never had a chance.

If you liked Tom Green, then you will hate this. MTV made him look like "The David Letterman of the 21st Century." One thing, if you spend $1 million, doesn't make you a million dollar man, nor does it make Tom Green funny. It was funny the first episode, but then it became annoying...jackhammer annoying.
