Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
peddlerofbls Every time I read a review of this show it's always some kind of failed comparison to Politically Incorrect. There's no comparison because they're two different shows. Like Quinn said "They had experts and none of us are experts. We don't claim to be." Most of these reviews come from people who don't agree with Quinn on things like the war so automatically they trash him and label him uninformed or stupid.Either way you vote Quinn was honest and wouldn't let anyone get away with hacky moves for applause like Marc Maron, which is nice these days. Every show on TV relies on weak, yuppie comedy that makes me want to toss my set from a Buick and hit a cyclist. WOO BUSH IS STUPID!!! YEAH LETS GO LOCK OURSELVES IN MIKE'S TRUNK!! If you're into that sort of thing keep catching Bill Maher on Larry King, turn your dials to ABC on Friday nights and leave comedy to people who know what they're doing.Boycott Comedy Central.Sincerely, Dinner for..1?
winelover37 For so long I had watched a similar format of this show which was great called "Politically Incorrect" with Bill Maher. Bill was articulate, informed and made valid arguments for his opinions yet let the panel speak their minds as well and so the show was balanced, fair and funny. Colin Quinn for "Tough Crowd" just can't cut it and is quite the opposite of Bill Maher. Colin doesn't take the time or have the intelligence to stay informed of key political and social issues. Whenever he does "try" to bring up an issue through his babbling of fragmented sentences and incomplete thoughts, the comic panel's eyes dart back and forth to each other, as they scramble to put together a comment to cover Colin's butt because he never really asked a question throughout his ramblings in the first place. Colin then gets flustered and either brings up the race card or lashes out at one of the comedians. Colin is as articulate and eloquent as a man with Turrets Syndrome without the expletives. It seems as if Colin has to "cram" 30 minutes before the show to try once more to sound informed. I think Colin graduated "Sum Cum Laude" at "Take it in the Brown" University, hence his habit of "cramming", which is probably how he got the gig at "Tough Crowd" in the first place. Has anyone seen Bill Maher? We all miss him.
ivyleague3 America is the land of milk and honey.I have to say that I love late night TV. 2000 years from now, our ancestors will be looking at Jon Stewart and Conan the same way kids learn about Socrates or Plato. I usually watch Stewart, then Leno's Monologue, then Letterman's guests, then Conan, then I fall asleep after he stops rambling (which everyone knows is the best part anyway).So I would like to declare that I have made a schedule change. Goodbye Leno, hello Tough Crowd. If Pat Cooper has an IMDb account, I want him to know that he is the funniest one there.
ilcaccitore I generally watch "Tough Crowd" every night, or at least the opening monoloue. All I would like to know is, how did Colin Quinn get on TV in the first place. He was never funny on SNL, and is very rarely funny on "Tough Crowd." Its not just that I disagree with him more often than not, I just don't find him funny. It seems that he simply states the facts and expects the audience to find it funny. All he ever seems to be good at is insult comedy, and, frankly, anyone can make fun of someone. Furthermore, even his insults seem bland. The only one he can ever come up with is "Shut up, stupid." To be blunt, shut up, stupid.
