Um...this sucked

This was painfully UNfunny. Martin Short was funny 20 years ago, and he gives a great interview, but people--Jiminy Glick is horrific. It's so bad, I felt bad for Jan Hooks! The TV show is abysmal, but this is worse since it's longer.

Here's a guide for you fools that were entertained by this tripe:

Funny: Kids in the Hall, Strangers With Candy, Fawlty Towers, Monty Python, Fletch, Midnight Run, the Daily Show.

NOT Funny: Jiminy Glick, Ellen Degeneres, Jimmy Fallon, Saturday Night Live after 1999, George Lopez.

Get it straight!

You really shouldn't have expected much from a straight to dvd film.

For what it was, i thought it was funny. It was weird but i did enjoyed it.

It wasn't straight to video. It was distributed theatrically in the US in May 2005, albeit in a limited release...

... just for the record...

I'm sorry but it is NOT up to you what people find funny and what peole don't find funny. Can't you just go "oh I have a different opinion from the people who liked this film, I have the right to voice it, but there's no need for me to be rude to those who do like it"?

IN YOUR OPINION you stupid dick

Is it really necessary for everyone to write "in my opinion" after everything they post? I mean, it's pretty obvious if I post "this sucked" that it is me expressing my opinion.

I thought the movie was great. Jiminy Glick was much more like-able in the movie as compared to the TV show. The movie is still different from the show, but is very enjoyable. I want a sequal!!!

I agree, I like the TV show all right but this movie was pathetically UNfunny.

Your lists were somewhat accurate -- 'specially since Meyers left SNL. But Jiminy Glick? I'm still kicking myself for wasting the $5 in the Wal-Mart Bargain DVD Bin on this one. Utter fecal.

One thing that irritates me about imdb boards it's the "looks like" topics. Never even close.
