GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Lawbolisted Powerful
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
RavenGlamDVDCollector A favorite of mine. Hey, I'm still reeling. Just now saw on this very site that bit about the supposed Fourth and Fifth Seasons. Come on, that's a mislead. Just three seasons! What is this? Hell, no, I'm one of those Commentary-listening nerds and have been informed on good authority there are three seasons with 42 episodes. Good thing I pay attention otherwise I'd have been off on another damned Hard-to-Find hunt! Perhaps IMDb can just smother this ruse?Getting back to the review, Notch Johnson for President! What a truly great American hero! Up there with Al Bundy (MARRIED WITH CHILDREN, toilet plunger in hand, other hand down pants) and Mr. Floppy, the Bunny from UNHAPPILY EVER AFTER. I'd follow these three guys through hell and back, or in my case, order them through a DVD supply store, and welcome them laid back in my easy chair with hot buttered popcorn, or rather, in my case, a jar of peanut butter. Ah, heaven on Earth! Of course, there is B.J. Cummings, played by Playboy's 45th Anniversary Playmate, Jaime Bergman. This one, of course, brings new meaning to the term 'heaven on Earth' and she can have some of my peanut butter anytime! Oh, I know she's married to that ANGEL guy, so okay, lemme just shut up then...This is a rollicking laugh-a-second fun show that is ten times as fun as its inspiration BAYWATCH. An episode flies by just like that! Never a dull moment! The grossest sight gags on TV, most of the stuff too awful to repeat. Notch in a thong? Mayor Anita getting barfed on? But then there are those delightful bits, B.J. going (as she wonders about sexy stuff) "I wonder what that will be like?" and then we do get to see close encounters of the most wondrous kind, like girly love between her and her many, many full-bosomed friends. Chip Rommel is another noteworthy character, think Arnold Schwarzenegger and a good-natured, well-meaning Adolf Hitler combined, and you might get the picture.Even more fun than a beach holiday!
Andrew Taylor Excellent. Reminds me of Sledgehammer of the 80s, early Married With Children or perhaps Red Dwarf... contrived, crude, crass, self indulgent and unrepentant. It's perhaps easy to dismiss, but watch a couple epis and you'll be hooked. Notch Johnson (Timothy Stack), and good writing help this stand out. There's a good amount (if stereotypical) character development with each episode following a predictable, but enjoyable path. The character's names crack me up... Mayor Anita Massingil, rofl. The Steven Hawking character was a bit too much. Perhaps they're finding it tough to one-up South Park. It's a shame it was cancelled. TV needs more of independent voices and less of the contrived, mass market, lowest common denominator Raymond and Survivor tripe. Find it and watch, if you can.
sugaraspa If anyone would care to check, this is my first review/comment on any movie or show since I began using IMDB (religiously for about 4 years now).The reason why this show deserves this somewhat dubious honor, is that I simply cannot believe that a show like this is actually having money spent on it and, pray that it's not so, but that it might actually be making money.When making a comedy series with the premise of a satire (Baywatch of course), you'd expect the script writing to be even halfway intelligent. Boy! Not this one! When you compare a series like this which is (currently) under active production, and then you compare it to an absolute treat like Futurama which has been canceled - you've got to wonder just who the producers are actually making these series for - people as brainless as the "satired" idiot's of this show?Come on people! Let's start upping the quality of Television, before we give any more credence to the old adage "Boob tube"!
William (wmattifo) I've always enjoyed Tim Stack's work. To me, he always seemed like a comedic genius in need of the proper place to showcase his talents. Luckily Howard Stern recognized this, too, and put our man Tim Stack in his "role of a lifetime" as Notch Johnson. Finally he is allowed to show the world his many talents. The writing for this show is outstanding and the delivery is impeccable. Jamie Bergman (as BJ Cummings) has maybe the best comedic delivery in show business. Kim Oja (as Kimberlee Clark) and Leila Arcieri (as Jamaica) are outstanding "straight men", while Lynne Marie Stewart (as Ellen) does an underrated job as the lusty lesbian. And the list of guest stars is impressive and they are allowed to be as funny as the regular cast. My favorite guest stars have been Alan Thicke, David Arquette, and Mark Hamill, but even "wholesome" stars like Maureen McCormick (Marsha Brady) have been part of the raunchy fun. This is a show that works because it isn't afraid to be funny. Notch says that his "unit isn't the biggest but it's the best" and this show just may be the best comedy on television. Bravo to Howard Stern.
