Too Bad

Forget what I said before, this is just as good as "The Drew Carey Show".

In my previous review, I said this wasn't as good as "The Drew Carey Show". I don't know what I was thinking. This is every bit as hilarious! I especially love the way Norm never gives his boss a break, something to be enjoyed. Laurie Metcalf and Ian Gomez are also extremely well cast. A hilarious, side-splitting show that is not to be missed. And how could you hate that awesome opening theme song?
