true scifi nerd would notice that one.

i have given up on ripping funny man now, everyone can see he's a 'tard, he
doesn't need anyone else to point that out to him.
as for his 'reviews', they've never held any merit for me but will probably
continue to give me a good chuckle at the expense of the authors sheer
stupidity.
ok, now i've given up ripping funny man

funny man review: the tudors.
as much as funny man wanted to like this show he cannot. it is historically
inaccurate to the point of meltdown. the acting in this show is middling to say
the least, with many miscast actors. the story tends to lean towards
entertaining people as opposed to supplying an accurate historical account.
funny man is not entertained by this in the slightest and the fact that they are
tampering with history makes funny man's blood boil. rhys-meyers' performance is
about the only saving grace for this show.
4/10 - watch "rome" instead.
much love to all the funny man fans.

i'm not so sure i've seen much evidence of a fan base, funny man ... but i will
acknowledge your staying power amongst adversity.
also, though i don't agree with your assessment of the tudors
(entertainment for the sake of entertaining is not neccessarily a bad thing
imo), your last two evaluations suggest you may have accepted some advice in
regards to writing a review of sorts. you've provided some examples from the
programs to back up your opinions, and discussed different aspects of the
production in regards to acting, story, and even camera work. obviously, you
could still use some improvement but i appreciate that you are making an effort
to learn at least.
to everyone else, perhaps it is time to recognise and accept the funny man
character for what it is - light-hearted entertainment. i mean, does it really
matter that funny man thinks he has fans and refers to himself in the first
person? not everyone is the same and it would be an awfully boring world if we
were blah blah. it wont hurt to cut him some slack and let him have his
opinion, there is always the "the funny man show reviews criticism thread" in
which to demonstrate your own flair and offer an alternate viewpoint to the
masses ... many of you can be absurdly funny, even if funny man is not.

funny man review: battlestar gallactica
as an avid fan of the original series, funny man was overwhelmed when he heard
the series was getting a make-over. thinking back to the days of starbuck and
the sylons, funny man remembered the "good old days". however, his nostalgia was
short-lived, and soon thereafter smashed to pieces....
the pilot episode begins, and you are immediately thrown into the middle of a
haywire story where not a lot makes sense. funny man spent the majority of the
pilot just trying to figure out what was going on....then he just gave up. some
nice special effects will not cover up the mess that is the "storyline". the
people responsible for this truly have "lost the plot"!
no starbuck (dirk benedict)
no sylons
no use
3/10 - totally confusing! an insult to the original series!

watching it then judge it off one episode too.
what a tool.
if you actually had the ability to comprehend what funny man was saying, he said
he was an avid fan of the original series, which ran in 1978. this new version
started in 2004.
what a noob.

and what part of waiting years to watch it don't you understand fuglyman?
galactica started in 2003. . . . . . it is now 2008
also the fact that you watched (or at least reviewed) the first episode of the
tv episodic series, instead of actually watching the previous 3 hour (4
episode) miniseries (2003) of which the 'pilot' 42 min episode continues.
had you done so, you would have seen a cylon in the first 5 minutes.
and on the topic of starbuck, i am sure dirk slept with more men than katee
ever will.
on the topic of glen larson, this is what he had in mind but was restrained by
70's television. thank god they don't come accross a human occupied planet
every episode that apollo can attempt to re-populate in his own image.
they did an excellent job (with 2003 mini and the first 2 seasons)
ps. was that you on the news last night, getting rescued from your flat after
having a fall? or was that your smaller brother?

funny man review: shark.
with high expectations funny man tuned into cbs' legal drama "shark" one
unsuspecting night. funny man soon discovered that this would be a lesson
learned. the premise of the show is laughable, with the main procrastinator,
james woods starring as himself yet again. the usual string of situations where
woods can "lose his temper" all crop up here. the "high-blood pressured basket
case" routine has long since worn thin by this stage, woods!
the laughs cannot be found for love nor money. the creepy supporting cast are
lame and confusing. the cases dealt with are so far fetched only a fool would
buy into them. last, but not least, the music is godawful.
4/10 - bad, but at least it's not "top gear".

no big loss about shark .. there's a glut of lawyer shows as it is.
how about a review of the new techie show jpod - any potential there or is it
likely to be another deadend?

funny man review: jpod
funny man went into this one optimistic that a good show awaited him him judging by
the description. the description forgot to mention a few things though. allow
funny man to elaborate.
the premise of the show is an annoying mix of scrubs, the office and my name is
earl. unlike two (office, earl) of the three aforementioned shows jpod is a
total mess. the characters are stereotypical and lack any depth. there are many
"in-jokes" in this show also - something that funny man really hates. the
storyline is garbage that doesn't seem to want to go in any particular direction.
the only thing that puzzled funny man upon first hearing of this show was what
the "j" in "jpod" meant. funny man will now reveal the meaning. the j stands for
junk, because that's what this is!
2/10 - absolute garbage! 6 broadcast episodes (max.) before being axed!
extremely annoying, avoid at all cost.
