Fred

I registered for IMDb just to say this: Was never entertained by this, and I can't believe this is in the comedy section of IMDb. I'm sorry, but screaming and yelling random trash into the camera and then speeding and chipmunking your voice does not make for an internet sensation. Besides having the brain of an airheaded teenager, I see no reason for anyone to watch this without having their ears bleed. His videos themselves are terrible. Having cliché, bland jokes as well as irrelevant, overused high- pitched screaming, it makes me wonder why he has one of the most subscribed channels on Youtube. The videos lack a comedic effect on me, and to my understanding, he also lacks the talent that others such as Smosh and Nigahiga otherwise have. (Although I have to say Nigahiga's videos went downhill ever since he joined a production team). I just have to say it again. Fred does not deserve the internet fame he is receiving.

I admit the first time I watched this series it was funny at first but then it started to feel bland and repetitive the second time round. I don't know how this series became among the top subscribed let alone the #1 subscribed on YouTube. If you want to find really good videos on YouTube don't always assume the top subscribed have the best videos because you'll soon realize that the number of subscribers someone has provides no indication whatsoever on how good their videos are especially when you look at this series, despite having the most subscribers it never was and never will be the best series on youtube and to be blunt some people with tons of subscribers might have crap videos whereas others with fewer subscribers may actually have far better videos, browse youtube and you'll see what I mean as you will probably come across much better videos from some users that aren't on the top subscribed. For over 1,000,000 subscribers this series really doesn't live up to the hype but yet it's viewers and subscribers continue to grow. It's understandable that people like this series but if this was made during the Golden Age of comedy it wouldn't have stood a chance as comedy is rarely as good as it used to be nowadays and even then most of the recent comedy is way funnier than this ever was. I used to regularly check back on this series to see if there's any improvement in the humour but sadly it falls flat and is only remotely funny because of the chipmunk voice which in itself is getting old too. This series is a disgrace to Monty Python and any other true comedy legends but to be fair it slides by. It was funny in it's own way but it pales in comparsion to *true comedy*. It used to make me laugh though, I'll admit but at least I can watch Monty Python sketches again and again and still laugh whereas this series is not in the least bit funny anymore :/ A lot of the hype if anything is mostly from fangirls who think Fred is cute and I don't even know where to begin on how retarded that is........ Though this series has probably opened doors for Lucas' career and I have to give him credit where it's due but it still doesn't make any sense why so many people stand in "awe" at this series and without doubt Hollywood is bound to cash in on this but then again some people in Hollywood are only to happy to cash in as long as they make lots of money from it whether it's good or crap. If you want to find one of the most overrated things in the world you've found it.

Overall an alright series but nothing special and proof that people need to look beyond what's in front of them to find better videos because youtube literally rubs our noses in videos from the top subscribed even if they aren't that great.

I'm not sure why I bothered to look at this show and I'm not sure what appeals to all the others! It's absolutely the worst of YouTube with the incessant screaming. Absolutely nothing of value here. And he didn't deserve a movie either.

I'm one of the very few people who are willing to admit I enjoyed Fred's first few episodes. I didn't love them, but I felt entertained. Then it felt like the show just got worse with time. I think there are three main reasons for this. One is the fact that it got way to monotonous. It kept on doing the same formula over a billion times. The fact is Fred's act gets annoying after a while. Reason number two is the fact that it became to kid friendly. When the Fred franchise got involved with Nickoldeon it lost a lot of dirty humor. They stopped focusing on stuff like Fred's alcoholic hoar mother, and tried to get more into Fred unpopularity with the other kids. This just made the show start to feel like I was watching one of those Disney Channel or Nick live action TV shows about teenagers in school. It got to a point where I felt like Miley Cirus was going to jump onto the screen, and start making my ears bleed. Third is how the show became a flat out cash cow. When the guy who made these videos realized he could make money off it he started George Lucasing it. He constantly advertised Fred products, and put in-show advertisements. I stayed with the show hoping that it would make a comeback, but eventually I had to click the unsubscribe button. I recommend the first few episodes, but other than that I can't recommend.

I stated on my Fred the Movie review that I'm not a fan of Lucas's. This isn't to say I'm a "hater" as extremist fanboys would call me and thousands of others. I too was a fan! I got into Fred in his early days,when he was still part of JKL with his cousins. When Fred had half a million to a little over a million views. That's how early, not a bandwagon jumper. I thought he was entertaining,and helped take up some spare time in my day. At some point though, he jumped the shark and became the plummet downhill.

It strikes me as odd how Fred's movie came out; after he became washed up and really a nobody, becoming shadowed by renown Youtube celebrities like Shane Dawson,and the immortal Smosh. Fred was alright, but his quality began to go downhill, and he stopped being funny. He was just the high pitched ADD kid who just wanted to annoy everyone. I'm giving Fred a 1, because I grew out of the immaturity and sold my funny bone to Satan.

If you want someone to laugh with (or at) just go watch Shane Dawson or Smosh,someone with talent.
