Wow

For a show made up of complete chaos it is surprisingly funny and kind of resemblant of real life when you do meet that person and it makes you crazy. OK, well maybe not so crazy, but still an OK show. I like how not everything is spoken just like in real life and how the people are just so nuts you can help but wonder what they are going to do next. This is that completely off the wall comedy I've been waiting my whole 17 years of life for. The illogical ramblings and crazy antics of these two characters is just to good to pass up even if it isn't you slice of pie, you have to watch it once just to see how crazy it is. Plus, the dying clown in the closet is about one of the funniest things I've ever seen on television, because you just don't get that crazy what the heck is that even in there for stuff out of regular TV. I give this show about a 7 because even though I like it, it is probably to intensely dense for some people.
