Reviews

Johny Loh First,this TV show is one of the best TV shows ever.Couz there is mixed comedy and action and the great character of beautiful and lethal Vallery Irons.Pam really did a good acting and she was all in the character.Also all the other actors in this show making it even more special.There is a lot of fun,a lot of action,and if you start watching it you can't stop.:-) The story of V.I.P. is also created very well and it makes you feel that things like that really happens in the real world.I am just very very very sorry because there is just first serial of this great show made on DVD.I really hope that it will be and the other 3 serials on DVD soon because the V.I.P. have a lot of fun's and people would buy those DVD's.I would!:-)
z_atkinberry First off, most people commenting on this show are looking at the show in the totally wrong light!! The show is very cheesy, over-the-top, campy and is not meant to be taken as a serious show, and that is pretty obvious from watching it for only a few minutes. I mean, it's biggest star is Pamela Anderson - that should tell you it's not serious.Anyways, on to the show!! I remember flipping through the channels one weekday afternoon and landing on VIP, and from the very first minute of seeing it I knew I would love it. I am a big fan of Pamela Anderson (I'm female so I'm not a fan in that way!) and I thing she is totally funny in her own way. This show was just so tailored to Pamela. I mean every episode had her running around LA in skin-tight outfits while the other bodyguards were performing over-the-top stunts and blowing up things. Plus the show had lots of subtle jokes about Pamela herself, and she seemed to enjoy making fun of herself. The best thing about this show was that you knew any time you watched it, you would enjoy it! So to all the other reviewers who dismissed this show - lighten up!! VIP is great! PS - If you liked this show, I recommend watching Relic Hunter. It is similar to VIP and also features another funny female - Tia Carrere.
mixedmessage Don't confuse this lighthearted comedy-action series with lightheaded. It never pretends to be anything but a fun distraction. It's got fun people, cute lines, and the plot is clearly intended only to move the characters into a few situations to play around. Yes, it is unlikely; the standard assumptions about bodyguard services are being played upon here. The show is built on caricature and unlikelihood: a curvy beauty concerned with little more than fashion leads a former top Russian agent with a dark past, a weapons-and-explosives expert mob princess, a research and computer expert with a cute naivete, and two guys with style to fight and be extra-masculine among all the curvy women. The characters have perfect hair, custom outfits, fame and money. The settings are saturated colors, big money, celebrities, and expensive toys. Lots of fun stuff so many of us dream about. Sure it's ludicrous and mostly nonsense. Fun nonsense, even silliness, is part of the point. It's not that the characters are thin, they are deliberately light. Their interactions are playful, friendly jibes rather than character assassination. They aren't founded in ego but in exaggeration, and they succeed at each challenge because of ability, effort, and proper social responsibility. It's not that these people can't act -- this style simply doesn't let them show negative or complex emotions. More importantly, the show doesn't degenerate into simple sex gags, innuendo, and adult horseplay at every turn, even though everyone there is acompletely appealing adult. That's not accidental; it would be too easy to let these situations degenerate into prurient coitus interruptus action and almost-saw-you-naked jokes. Typically, plot background is given in simple research dialog, carefully explained by the cute computer expert as the others plan and grimace at the foolishness of clients or the inhumane threats of criminals and spies. The beautiful antihero distracts herself with unusually playful costume changes every few scenes, as she observes the plans and efforts of her colleagues and often confounds both. It's a simple formula, but it's the playful approach and cuteness of the accidents and dialog that make this style work. It's not a tongue-in-cheek approach to action like a Schwarzenegger movie or Die Hard. This is a sassy 'sometimes any of us can do well in spite of how others define us'. Anderson portrays not a dumb blonde, but a hopeful and playful participant making a little from every opportunity. Her character makes the observations and witticisms that seem silly and wise at the same time, and wins the day through some fortuitous quirk or accident. It's not badly made, either. It's got it's own lighting style, some unusual wipe techniques, and the editing focuses on movement. It's dialog is timed just long enough to get character reaction, rarely overlapping each other or rushing the script. Each episode features musical background from a single new album, usually something uncommon and stylish rather than mainstream. (However, I really liked the episode featuring Lit, partly because they so clearly enjoyed fitting the show around a few video-style performances, but mostly because Lit plays such fun, straight-forward rock.) So why isn't it much more popular? That's pretty easy -- not everyone wants to spend time with such a simple story. Such a light formula, simple characterizations, and unlikely plot events requires the user to lower his expectations and just enjoy a show for the fun of it. "VIP" accomplishes that without the lowbrow humor and ridicule that often ruin sitcoms, without mood-thickening personal philosophies, and without the drama and tragedy that expand your understanding of personal motivations and philosophies. "VIP" knows how to be simply fun. This is entertainment.
redguy1 One of the worst shows in television history, combining talentless acting, 2-dimensional characters, wooden dialog, and moronic plots into something so incredibly bad that many reviewers think that the whole thing is a campy joke and should be enjoyed as a comedy. However, that point of view may actually be a symptom of the brain damage that watching this truly awful "show" can cause.
