Funny, but not to be taken too seriously..., 13 July 2001
Author: Jdc102 from Southern California

First off, when I first heard they were making a show out of the "TV FUNHOUSE" cartoon on SNL, I thought it would be very funny. I love the TVFUNHOUSE on SNL.I tuned in the first two times and didn't think it was anything special, but after about 3-4 episodes I began to like it more. I must say that I think it would be a lot funnier if they "toned" the show down a bit more, some of the stuff is just sick, but others are funny in a weird sort of way. Bottom Line: Not classic comedy, but worth a look..

Robert Smigel is cool.

Thank You
