Dear Joel,
First of all, I just want to say that I'm a big fan of yours. I'm also an avid viewer of The Soup. Especially when I'm bored out of my mind and I'm out of trashy reality television to watch. Plus, I really like to watch Chelsea Lately, and she typically comes on after your show, but you probably already know that.
Anyway, when I heard that you had a starring role in NBC's new show Community I had to set a DVR timer immediately. Okay fine, I had Brent do it because I still haven't figured out how to operate that kind of high tech gadgetry. Don't judge me, Joel McHale.
So the timer was set, and I watched your new show.
I'm pretty sure at that time I had what I like to refer to as "bed hypnosis". It's kind of like highway hypnosis, but it occurs when you watch some extremely shitty show in the bed. You know, like when you're driving somewhere, and before you know it you are at your destination, and you have no recollection how you got there in the first place? That totally happened to me as I was watching your flaming turd of a television program. When I came to I had drool rolling down the side of my face, Joel. To say that I was not aroused with the overall feel of the show would be an understatement.
How dare you? How dare Chevy Chase?!? What the hell were you idiots thinking? That show is intensely boring, and frankly, I'd rather watch flies fuck than ever watch Community again.
My advice? Don't quit your day job, because your new show sucks balls!

Phew! Glad I am not the only one who feels this way. It is painful...the whole thing....! Just ill conceived, dim-witted, and lame. My teen-age boys think they like it...but when I asked them to explain why...they really could not. I am taking it OFF the DVR list.
Greta- Well, there aren't even any hot chicks in it, so that can't be why they like it. Hmm..
Further proof that boys are weird. ;)
Agreed 100%. I was expecting so much more from that gang... ???
Oh Candice. Never fail to have me in tears! There will be an award for you over at my place in an hour or so! Swing on bye and "pick it up"!
Never even heard of it. Thanks for the heads up! Or, as you may say. Thanks for the "other" heads up.
Me too. Yet my husband refuses to take it off our DVR series recordings. He is one of those frustrating people that refuses to admit a show plain old sucks. He thinks funny people = funny show.
Hey, I'd love to watch flies go at it.......better than watching them eat poop and garbage.
Don't forget to check out my new web show, "Braking News" when I get it up and running soon. Hopefully it won't suck as bad as the current Chevy Chase.
Foxy- Me too. Oh well, I guess I'll give the Lamas reality show a try. It can only get better with that dysfunctional bunch!
That one Mom- Sweet! Thanks :)
Danielle- Trust me, you aren't missing a thing.
Kyslp- Brent will get rid of a timer if the show sucks, but if he's in the middle of a shitty movie, he won't change the channel until it's over, and then he'll have running bitching commentary about how bad the show sucks. Then I'll start in on how big of a moron he is in the first place for watching some piece of crap that clearly sucks ass, and then have the nerve to bitch about it.
Then I'll roll back over and go to sleep like I was before all the bitching started about the "pathetic acting", because unlike him, I know exactly what to do when something doesn't hold my attention. SLEEP, or change the channel, just as an example.
Haha that photo is hilarious, and yes that show sucked BIG TIME.
I LOVE him as well! I even followed him on twitter for awhile but his tweets were almost robotic sounding. His show on E is funny as anything, so I'm sad to hear that his network show is such a bomb :(
You are so funny with that picture! I like him, too but to be honest, didn't know he had this new lame gig. Just found your blog from Speaking From the Crib and it's fantastic! :)
OMG! love the graphic. You have taken John Madden's yellow pencil thing to new and higher heights.
Good thing for Joel you are not a real critic. You made me laugh good tonight, Candice. You are one hard ass broad when you get a mean-on.
Love it.
Somehow, apparently luckily, I've missed seeing this one. But, I've seen several other new shows this week, some of them with well-known players, and there's not a one of them I'll watch again.
It doesn't seem to be for lack of acting talent, either. It seems Hollywood is plumbing ever deeper depths of the writing talent pool. The premises, the dialogue, the timing, the organization, the flow - just everything. I don't know how these shows even got taped without somebody piping up and saying "WTF? Are you shittin' me?" I gotta think they could have ad-libbed better stuff.
Just pitiful.
I've never seen flies fuck.. that might be fun to watch.
Love ya, girl.
I watched the first two episodes on Hulu.com but stopped watching it. I was very disappointed with that show.
Well, I didn't see it, and well, I can only drop to my knees and thank you for preventing my eyes from beholding such vapid shit. I know you know what I'm saying.
And nice donkey balls imagery on the cast photo. You rival Monday Night Football.
As you know, I’m so far out of the loop, I have no idea of who this guy is or what this show is about. But I know that Chevy Chase has been sucking huge, hairy, distended balls for a long time now. I’ll stick to trashy reality.
I just saw on the MSN homepage though that the entire cast of Seinfeld did an episode of Curb your Enthusiasm. That is a great show to begin with. If not that, there’s always Project Runway, and Hell’s Kitchen.
Candice, don't hold back, tell us how you really feel.....
Okay, I dvr Community and have been hanging in because I hoping it's going to get better. Unfortunately, it might be like Parks & Rec which sucked cow balls (I had hopes for that show).
I will say, it was better than "Cavemen."
I love Joel but I would have to agree. I watched the first one and haven't watched it since.
And if I'm not watching it then it must be pretty bad, because I watch some shitty ass shows.
seejaneblab- I'm glad you and everyone else agrees. I thought at first that maybe I wasn't giving it enough of a chance. Turns out it REALLY is a flaming turd after all.
I love it when I'm right. :)
Nancy- Yes, I suppose I'll keep watching him on The Soup instead.
Theta Mom- Welcome!!
Fat Daddy- Joel Madden could take a few lessons from me. ;) Oh the things I could do with Monday night football.
Cagey- I totally agree with you. This is the exact reason why 98% of my TV watching experience is reality TV. ;)
My own two feet- It will happen eventually, and when it does you can be all, "HEY! This is more entertaining than watching Community!"
Charmaine- Right back atcha!!
Jay- It BLOWS!
Fragrant Liar- I'm really disappointed with the color of my penis. It blends in with the color of paint on the walls in the picture, making it difficult to see. It really should have been pink instead. Oh well. Live and learn. ;)
Scott- LOVE Curb Your Enthusiasm! Yes, they did an episode last Sunday and it was pretty good.
LMB- I never recorded Parks and Recreation because I can't stand the lady that was starring in that. Wasn't she on SNL? I find most people on SNL these days to be lame, and well, basically not funny.
Lotgk- Ha!! I can't believe they even made a show out of that shit. Needless to say, I didn't watch that one either. The commercials were annoying enough.
Brandy- Turn your attention to Trauma. I think that's actually a decent show. Mercy isn't bad either.
Your penis overlay on the cast picture just made my day.
MDubs- Some penises tend to do that from time to time. ;)
Beau- Sorry. Didn't mean to skip ya! I'll definitely be checking out your show. Good luck! :)
