The Pitts (2003)
The title says it all... and that's not a good thing!
Until they make a show called "Crap" or "Horrible" or possibly "It Stinks" this will remain the only show in history that is best summed up by its title. This is by far the worst thing I have ever seen on the small screen. The creators of this show should be applauded for making a show that is just as bad from fade-in to fade-out. It is truly a colossal feat. (Imagine the willpower it takes to disregard all natural instincts toward comedy and good taste.) They have done for television what "Plan 9 from Outer Space" did for film. Halfway through the show I had to switch over to CNN to replenish the brain cells I'd lost watching the first half so I could sit through the horrendous last act. (I won't even mention the vampire prom date or the goofy exorcism.) The person I feel the most sorry for is Dylan Baker, who has had a very promising film career until now. I hope he did this show because of a lost bet or some horrible blackmail scheme because I'd hate for this to be the entertainment credit chiseled on his career tombstone. March 30th 2003 has become a sad day in television history...and I blame FOX!
Under One Roof (1995)
So bad it's....good...in a bad way!
I stumbled onto this show late one night while channel surfing and was mesmerized, like a deer in the headlights. One b-story of the episode involved a stick-thin asian guy fighting his plus-size wife to keep her from shaving off his mustache. (Insert obviously forced laugh here.) I have to agree that the jokes were on par with any American sitcom but the other user failed to indicate what decade that sitcom would be from. The quality of the humour is on par with such notable American sitcoms as "Perfect Strangers", "Charles in Charge", "Mr. Belvedere" or any such 80's laugh-track enhanced show. (I must admit that in my youth I was a fan of all these shows.) It doesn't have the quality of any current American sitcoms...maybe a Canadian one though. Watch it with your drunk friends and have a laugh.
