Stella seemed like it would be an absolutely awful show from watching the commercials. It looked stupid and pointless. Those two things are true, but along with being stupid and pretty pointless, it's also very hilarious. This show knew what it wanted to be, and the actors knew how to portray idiots who overact extremely in situations. The premise of the show is 3 suit wearing dummies have various adventures, and often learn a lesson. Where most of the shows on Comedy Central seem to be enjoyed by the public, but lack in quality, this show was a minority and was not enjoyed by the majority and was actually pretty funny. The first season is now available on DVD and I suggest you rent or buy it, because this Three Stooges like show is very funny.My rating: Great show. 30 mins. TV14

Michael Ian Black, Michael Showalter and David Wain star in Comedy Central's new comedy-improv show, "Stella," which really has no plot to speak of... I've seen a few episodes now and they're usually quite loose in terms of motif. There's no discernible central theme apart from three guys performing comedy.The last episode I saw had the trio trying to come up with a film script...it was a very funny parody of aspiring scribes and writer's block. I enjoyed it.Another episode had the boys trying to get their apartment back...which I also thought was funny. Their bizarre sense of humor - rather distant and zany - is refreshingly different.All in all this is yet another reason to claim Comedy Central has improved its programming recently.

At first, when I only heard of Stella, I thought it would be most unfunny and very stupid (in a bad way) however, something about it sparked my interest. So, I watched it out of complete curiosity. It was completely opposite of my first impression of it. The random humor and stunts as shown in the show is what I loved most about it, but that's just me. Those who don't agree are probably into smarter comedies like the Notebook or something. Despite what others may say, I love this show I hope it isn't another flop of Comedy Central. I hope you all find this summary outstandingly informative and take note, i am just saying stuff because i really want to take some lines because apparently, what I first said was not long enough.

I had seen Stella do stand-up on several occasions and found what they did on stage hilarious but somewhat limited. Not anymore. Stella with their new show is everything you could hope to see if you were a fan before the series. They take out a lot of the homosexual stuff they use in their act and replace it with a ton of outlandish humor. From spoofing "JFK" to making jokes about the great Irish potato famine, Stella is a fun half an hour of television. Michael, Michael, and David have been doing stand-up together for years and when stand up comedians trying doing shows (The Drew Carey Show, The George Lopez show, The Job, Action, etc.) they either end up terrible, slightly humorous, or are canceled before you get a chance to see them. Not with Stella, then again, there's still time for it to get canceled...
