    The man show is a prime example of why I no longer watch television.

      My favorite part of the show: Girls & Zkribbler on Trampolines.

        I think it's being phased out since Jimmy got his show on ABC. I don't know what Adam's going to do.

        Is Love Line still on? I used to listen to it all the time, but for some reason no stations carry it here in the Bible Belt.

          It's damn funny most of the time, although sometimes its lame. As others have said, the Man Show isn't meant to be taken seriously.

          The most memorable moment to me was when they went around campaigning against women suffrage.

            People say that the demeaning is so over the top that it can't possibly take it seriously. Ok, I don't take it seriously. I take it as a joke. But this brings the question, is it right to transform peoples' bodies not into merely objects then, but also the butt of a man's joke? Hmmmm. It's not funny, and just seeing it makes me literally CRINGE.

              Many American shows suck, for instance:

              "Everybody loves Raymond". He even got a price for it. How sick are you ppl really?

                Everybody loves Raymond is a GREAT show! It's utterly hilarious!

                You Scandinavians with your lack of humor !

                  Raymond rocks. The thanksgiving episode with the Tofurkey was a riot.

                      Are we talking about that slow dude. Talks a bit slow or so it seems.

                      Mike Myers... Another VERY VERY sad story. Saw Waynes' World I and II and 12 mins of Goldmember. He seems to parody on "Ja" and other languages in GM. Too bad he doesn't understand them. Europe-ignorant.

                      If the majority of Americans think Mike Myers is funny I hope Iraq beats A...... in the upcoming war. Putting a smiley here so I don't get sued or attacked You never know what crazies and stupid stuff American lawyers can pull on you. Another sad story.

                        Pretty much what everyone else says, the hyperbole is exactly what makes the Man Show funny. It's not potty humor or the objectivization of women that's appealing, but the way it's overdone. Plus most of their bits really are original.
                        Unbelievable!

                          BG, you should see "Fleksnes". It rocks.

                          European humor is much better judged by the two horrible American shows/films I have mentioned.

                            I take it you've never seen 'Austin Power's 1' or 'So, I married an axe murderer'? He's a good comedian... oh, and he's Canadian.

                                So you have no frame of reference .

                                If you don't see the man's best work, you cannot critique his entire act.
