Shitney

Sorry folks I tried to come up with a title less hacky than Shitney but it didnt work out.

Whitney is taped in front of a live studio audience.....of sick pricks who are dead inside or have never seen another tv show before. I was looking for something to write about this morning and decided I'd get myself all riled up and watch the latest Christmas themed episode of the show Whitney. This will be the fourth episode of Whitney that I watch. Whew, I said it. That was weighing on me. I watched the first three episodes of this show's run a few months ago and the best excuse I can come up with is it is captivatingly unfunny. The fact that this and 'Two Broke Girls' (which Whitney Cummings produces) are popular makes my stomach sink. This show has it all:

-a laugh track that is never needed but never stops

-unlikable lead and supporting characters that do nothing but be snarky to each other

-splashes of physical comedy from actors who can barely stand still convincingly

-a "Token Indian", which I believe is the new "Token Black"

-Rarely do 2 lines of dialogue go by without a shoehorned, unnatural sounding "joke"

Alright thats all I got for now, I'm turning this dreck off. I know that it is the hip move to shit on Whitney but the show really is the pits. Also I'm tired of D-lister cameos as wacky parents on sitcoms. Later
