"Fair"

By kyravon, Apr 07, 2007 Report Abuse

What was with the five minute commercial for GAP during the episode? I didn't see any "sponsored by Gap" credits or anything (which at least would have made it more honest advertising). It was way too obvious, forced & prolonged to be an accidental mention of a specific store's website, followed by a discussion of their merchandise and praising their products!

I am incredibly disappointed! If they do this again, I think I'll have to stop watching the show. I'm going to write in and tell them this so maybe they'll stop.
please feel free to join me to stop them from turning tv shows into ads themselves!moreless

This review probably belongs to "Fairway" episode because it was on a golf fairway but there's some confusion on how the episodes were entered by TVTome. This should be the second episode, not the third, and the second episode wasn't aired (in my town anyway). Also, TVTome won't let me enter the review in the "Fairway" episode, so I'll just put it here.

The jokes were right on, a lot of subtle humor, and it was just plain out good quality comedy. Wasn't expecting this from Andy Richter, but it's true. After some morbidly obese guy is murdered, it's revealed all the affairs and women who had the hots for him, including Andy's wife. It was hysterical throughout, and I'm not an easy person to please. Just check out my other reviews.

This one's a big thumbs up!moreless
