How sad is this?

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

If it wasn't for West Coast Julie Brown, I probably would have never cared to watch the show. She plays a former child star, Tammi Tyler, who operates a strip mall with lesbian Chinese restaurant owner played by the wonderful Amy Hill. The show was silly at best with stupid plots about killing and sex jokes. The show was dark comedy more like a dark soap opera with comic overtones. The show was filmed at a strip mall in Los Angeles. The show aired it's full season on Comedy Central. The show had it's moments with Julie Brown and Amy Hill who ran the Chinese restaurant with her lesbian lover until she got killed. I remember the actual name of the place, "Wok Don't Run." Like I said, Amy Hill was unforgettable and I wished that she would get more jobs.

What an amazingly funny and original show. The cast starting with the hysterical Julie Brown(Homecoming Queen's Got A Gun) is just perfect. Add Amy Hill(All American Girl-Grandma Kim) who plays a lesbian who is always arguing with her partner and business partner(Asian restaurant-WOK-DON"T RUN) I have laughed harder during this show than any other I have ever seen(including Newhart-one of my all time favorite shows) If you like movies like Naked Gun and Airplane- you will love this series!! One of the best moments of the show is Cindy Williams playing herself. When she snubs Tammy at the dry cleaners, Tammy finds a picture of Cindy Williams in her coat. The picture is of Cindy Williams doing an unmentionable act with a bowling pin-upside down. It is awesome to see an actress like Cindy Williams being able to play herself like this. Soap opera like with many surprise twists during its short run. I can only hope that this will someday be released on DVD with special many bonus special features. Funniest series I have ever seen!!!!

I loved this show, it had always had 4 or more different story lines running at once. Definitely not for kids, of course. I thought it was great right after South Park. I'd love to know what happened to the show. I've tried to find out information as to what happened, but to no avail. If anyone has info. Please post it.

In "Strip Mall", the creative team has distilled all the motivators behind American commerce (power, lust, backstabbing, jealousy, fabricating lies) and made them the key plot developers of an amazingly sharp (and FUNNY!!!!!) TV show.The production is over the top, which is where one has to be when looking down to examine the key foundations of our society. This show is slick and gaudy, like a laminated menu from Denny's, and (I have to repeat) FUNNY, FUNNY, FUNNY!!!
