    anyone else see that the other night on comedy central.

    was that not the worst show ever. now it would be great if we were in 4th grade, but i dont think many of the people watching were.

    i do think the gay guys were funny though. if it was just about them it would be great.

    Haven't seen the actual show yet - but I've seen the commercials for it numerous times. I laugh out loud everytime she yells "Hey same car!"

    I didn't catch the show, but from what I've seen of the commercials it looks like her sense of humor is a bit too low-brow for my taste.

    My fiancee and I watched about half an episode last week, but couldn't get into it. Her stand-up success isn't translating well into a good sitcom.

    She wouldn't be the first to try and fail. I could probably list five or six other spin-off or stand-up attempts at sitcoms that fell flat.

    i didn't even bother to watch it. It came to the point of changing the channel when the commercials came on. i hate her. Why does she think she's funny?

    I haven't seen the show either, but I don't think I'm going catch it! It does seem funny, my sense of humor is very childish. The problem is that I think her show comes on the same time as Scrubs or 30 Rock on NBC (9:00-10:00pm) and I never miss those two. Her show seems something like a bunch of skits, as opposed to an actual sitcom, which in my opinion make better comedy TV shows.

    its not really skits at all. its just a crappy storyline that looks like its skits.

    Sara can be a bit mean spirited at times, so I personally like her movie/television acting better than her standup comedy routines.

    I think Wanda Sykes had like 2 or 3 such shows all by herself (and if I recall they were decent too).
