I had the unfortunate experience of seeing Hype for the first time last night, and I must say I've never seen a show -- intended to be a comedy -- which has angered me more in my entire life.
In a recent Entertainment Weekly article, the cast was described by a show PR person as being great impersonators, and a breath of fresh air.
Hype is nothing more than a stale attempt by the WB to make a foray in to the sketch comedy game, when really sketch comedy is on the way out.
Not once during the 30 minutes did I laugh... not even once... all I could keep repeating is "my god, they're making fools of themselves."
If you want to watch something funny, dig up those old tapes of the "Dana Carvey Show" -- a much more valiant effort at risque sketch comedy.
Bottom line -- don't believe the hype the WB is creating over HYPE... its bland, boring, dull, and the worst example of sketch comedy on the tube today.
