    I belive that this is a damn good show. Sure I like South Park and Crank Yankers but its about time Comedy Central aired a show for us who don't drool all over ourselves. I am really looking forward for more episodes. Keep them comming.

    If you want to get every joke, you have to have read Evans' book or seen his autobiodocupic or, like the show's hilarious take on Kim Jong Il, have heard the Books-on-Tape version.The man (former actor [he *played* Irving Thalberg!], movie producer [ever hear of Chinatown? Marathon Man? Popeye?], studio president, inspiration for Dustin Hoffman's character in Wag the Dog, and husband or lover of just about every movie star and model since the mid '60s, Robert Evans) has had more deaths and resurrections than a 16-part slasher series. This show parodies Evans mercilessly and equally mercilessly satirizes the corruption of the post-studio-system Hollywood way of doing business, along with plenty of famous people who have had it coming for a long time.If you come into it cold, I suppose you'll just be left wondering "What the f--- was *that*?" But the Osbournes was a hit, so there's no reason to write The Kid off again. And even if you do, he'll just come back bigger and richer.So is it the funniest show on television if you have the clues? You bet your ass it is.

    Everyone has heard about the amazing life of Robert Evans and this makes for great possibilities in this show. This show is a great spoof of "Hollyweird" and how movies and TV shows are really made. inside info and references make this a great show. I hope this show gets a chance to have a good long run for many years. There is nothing better than intelligent TV and this is one of the best.

    This show is beyond awful, it's like an eighth grade AV project that was somehow mistakenly left in a network tape machine. I'd watch deleted scenes from The Critic before I'd watch this show again.Robert Evans' only perceptible skill as a voice actor is the seemingly impossible ability to sound stoned and stiff at the same time, reading his lines like an audio book he learned phonetically.The constant blur of racial slurs, profanity, and repeated attempts to elevate naughtiness to cleverness results in a miserable mess that manages to insult our intelligence more than our sensibilities.The only potential good that I could envision coming from this show is that it drives everyone associated with it out of the entertainment industry permanently. Now *that* would be funny.
