Reviews

fitch09 This show makes me physically sick. What's even more insulting than the show itself is the fact that TBS tries to convince us that this is "very funny" with the words coming direct from Mr. Engvall's own mouth. Congrats TBS, you've reached a new low. It is quite sad that Tim Meadows has stooped low enough to play the token black guy in a horrible, horrible "sit-com" with this douche Engvall. I'm sure he's having trouble finding work, but come on, man--this is worse than doing gay porn. Farley, Hartman and other SNL pals are rolling in their graves right now. There are plenty of comedians out there who don't have to be "profane" to be funny, but this dude is not one of them. This style of cheap comedy needs to go away forever.

craigpaul I appreciate people saying that if I don't like the show that I shouldn't watch it, and I generally don't. It's impossible, however, to avoid all of the promos and I just had to see if the show was as awful as the promos make it seem - and since they put the funniest bits in the ads, I wasn't surprised to find that it's even worse. The only reason I'm writing this note is because it's really frustrating unfair that so many talented people are out of work when this passes for a sitcom.One other somewhat unrelated note - this is another in a long line of shows where unattractive men have attractive wives, an obvious result of men being the writers and producers of most of these shows.It's surprising that women viewers don't object to this. It is, however, consistent with most men's attitudes - I can be a fat slob, but my women have to be hot.

danielalcantar The Bill Engvall Show is terrible on almost every front. Bill Engvall as a main character is one of the worst in recent memory. He isn't funny, he has no comedic timing and he is just plain laughable as a "therapist". The jokes and family situations are topical and predictable to the point of being cringe-worthy. The advertising campaign for this show is also the worst I've every seen. Pausing quality shows on TBS for a solid 30 seconds while Bill talks about his mess? Give me a break.Perhaps my biggest problem with this show is the culture which is represents. NASCAR has signed the big contract with ESPN, Larry the Cable Guy's movies made obscene amounts of money and redneck culture in general is now right in the middle of the mainstream. Doesn't it upset anyone that NASCAR can't show the center of the track because of all the confederate flags on the RV's? Bill Engvall represents all this and more. The "family values" displayed in the show are nothing more than an excuse to show a white, upper-middle class family in which a heterosexual marriage heads the parenting role, being highly functional and displaying the kind of virtues that have allowed things like the Iraq war and Bush re-election to take place.Never has a white, upper-middle class family been portrayed as being so steady and so "united". The undertones to Bill Engvall and his entire career are glaringly obvious. You can feel the pro military ideals oozing out of every trashy pore in this terribly written, racism-perpetuating show.

depaulbeatkuHA This show is pretty darn awful. First off, it fails on every level imaginable. The script made me suicidal. Do you recall the pilot? One of the "funny" parts was when the little kid made the remark, "you haven't WASHED your hands in a while." What? The jokes are terrible.Next, the characters do incredibly dumb things. In one episode, the mom starts selling muffins to people in Bill's office. She is bringing home hundreds of dollars a day when she would normally just be sitting at home. However, this is to Bill's DISMAY. He hates her doing this! He's such a frigging moron! Then, she has to (get this) work HARD! OH NO! And we, the audience, and supposed to feel sorry for her, instead of saying, "heck with you! you need to work hard to make money!" So whats the message of the story? It's even if you make hundreds of dollars a day, if it's hard, then just be a house wife! And of course the episode ends with that dork going back to being a housewife.
