I'm just not laughing


Look, I'm the biggest "Mr. Show" and "Arrested" fan there is. I marvel at David Cross's talents, as a writer, actor, even a standup. I even like my share of British humor, and I do admire, in theory, the hybrid of styles Cross is trying for here.

But after watching most of Season 1, I gave up on it, when I finally realized that I was sitting there stone faced each week. The Season 2 teaser episode made me decide to give it one more try.

Nope. Same problem. I can't say the show is UNfunny. But there just seems to be any fresh or surprising moments that genuinely tickle me.

I really wish I could say otherwise, but this one is a thumbs down for me. Let all the other threads analyze or argue; I just ain't laughing.

Well, all I can say is that it's just not suitable for you as I love the first two seasons.. season 3 -- no thanks.

Season 1 and 2 were horrifically amazing in pure black humor delight! Season 3 was when they lost me completely. I couldn't even finish it because the third season is simply unfunny. That middle American yokel from 30 Rock just didn't fit and Todd Margaret played a lame more assholish version of my last boss... Just made me feel bad LOL
