Howie Do It

Howie Do It is such a horrible show that I can only think that maybe, just maybe, the entire thing was just a really bad joke. Who on earth would put a show this bad on TV and actually expect people to watch it? I can't begin to say how awful this show was. Howie was a terrible host, and what was with him always wearing a stupid disguise (just a bad wig usually) and always calling himself Larry? The pranks were all really bad, what is the point of copying a successful old formula like Candid Camera and not even updating it to be better, or funny in today's world? This was a really bad show with really bad performances, bad hosting, and bad writing. Bad idea from the get go, all around terrible show.

This show is awful, I don't know if it has been cancelled but I have not seen it on television for a while (thank goodness!) so I hope that it has had the plug mercifully pulled and we will never have to expose our eyes to this pathetic excuse for a TV show ever, ever again. If this is "Howie Does It" I can't see why he can even leave his house without hired bodyguards because Howie whats his name is so unfunny and terrible it makes me want to vomit all over my TV. The hacky pranks they pull on people are even less funny than in Candid Camera reruns from the 1960s or whatever if you are going to rip off Candid Camera ideas at least make them funnier than they used to be! This show is just awful, the worst U.S. made comedy I have seen in years and I would say maybe the worst comedy show ever if it wasn't for almost every show produced on that constant waste of time network The Comedy Network in Canada.

This show was awful on every level you can think of. Howie Mandell is uncomfortable to watch, smiling through all the awful hidden camera pranks he presents on this show. The actors he uses are terrible, the pranks are lame and unfunny, and they people they prank don't give great reactions either. The only laughs I had were unintentional ones when Howie would wear really bad costumes to surprise people with who he really was and the people would be like "oh OK I guess I kind of recognize you from the eighties or whatever"......

Just #smh at how bad this show is. Howie Mandell is a comic I like but he's got to be the worst and most awkward host of a show of all time. The pranks are really awful and unfunny and none of the reactions of the prank victims are funny either. And what's up with the stupid costumes for no reason? This show is just the worst.

I had the displeasure of being in the audience for this show, basically, a ripoff of Candid Camera where real life people would be set up by Howie and, in this case, other family members.

I won't bore you with the details but of the 4 separate families we had to sit through 3 misfired, in other words the victim, instead of getting upset and crazy which seemed to be the point, kept their composure and decided as a family they would work through it. Big credit to the victims, no credit for idiot Howie.

The final target was so upset she started crying and became so hysterical she had to be seen to by the set medic. Big laughs there.

Mandel has never been much of a talent and this pathetic, badly written outing shows how only 'Canadian content' rules set down by the CRTC keeps losers like this on the air.

Avoid at all costs!!
