Terrible

I can't believe it. I laughed once during this episode.

The episode began not as quite as I expected, with Jimmy being the main character. The comedy award-thingy was not funny at all. I'm not able to see how they were thinking this was gonna be funny. Then the Germans, Japanese and the Eskimos come into the picture. They could have made sooo much jokes with this! But then instead they chose for the Germans, and then totally ignore ALL the jokes you can make about the Germans, and they just ignore the Japanese and the Eskimos! Come on guys! Then they make one joke about Angela Merkel (that was my smile), and that was the highlight of the episode. From that point on, I began to question my sense of humor. Just like that time Cartman lost his sense of humor. But that was funny. This episode was not.

I wasted 21 minutes of my life. All I could think was how the f*** did they think funnybot would be funny? Killing a lot of people and then joking about it? How's that funny guys?

I actually think they were trying to do a parody of a really lame south park episode or something... which did not work at all. It was so incredibly low.

I'm disappointed Trey Parker, sir. HUMANCENTiPAD did not make any sense (an iPod stuck to somebody's head and 3 bodies later it gives you an e- mail?), and this was just terrible.

Thank you, but no thanks.

Sorry
