An Excellent Show, That I Think Is Underrated

I loved watching this show every time it came on.It was so funny, and I was absolutely entertained through every single episode.The awesome little sketches like Moody's Point and A Hillbilly Moment, which those were my favorite things about the whole show, were absolutely hilarious and just all around fun to watch.The Red Lobsters were always great fun too, and even though I can't remember what it was called, there was one thing where they kept people in a certain area to see who could last the longest without going crazy or something like that...of course it was extremely hilarious as well.I love this show, and I think Amanda Bynes is very talented.Watch some episodes if you haven't seen any!
