    I SEE POTIENTAL
    THIS SHOW IS FUNNY AND RELATABLE. HOWEVER THERE ARE TIMES WHEN ITS JUST TO MUCH RAUNCHY LANGUAGE AND TOPICS. I WISH IT WAS SOMETHING I COULD WATCH WITH MY CHILDREN SINCE IT BY US FOR US. BUT ITS NEW AND THEY HAVE TIME TO IMPROVE. I LOVE ALL THE SUPRISE GUEST THAT ARE ON THE SHOW. IN ORDER TO LIKE THIS SHOW YOU HAVE TO HAVE A SILLY YET DARK SENSE OF HUMOR.
