Stella

[Dr. Rated-R]

Jesus H Christ, what an awesome show this is. Stella is SO amazing, and easily the best new show I've seen in ages. God, I hope Comedy Central keeps this one -- they keep giving up on the better new shows. If they wind up trashing Stella and keeping Mind of Mencia... then they're retarded.

Anyways, what are your opinions on this new series?

[Guest TheTokenWhiteGuy]

I agree Mind of Mencia is a dumb, dave chappelle wannabe, I wish it would be cancelled.

[Guest Ringmaster]

I wouldn't say its out of this world or anything, but it's very witty, and I enjoy that. The show is getting better by the ep too.

I think, however, that its one of those things not many people are going to get, which is why it may not be that successful.

[A-Dub]

I think that the show is halarious, Michael Ian Black is great.

[naiwf]

Stella is the worst attempt at humor on TV. There's nothing "to get" or "witty" about it. It's just a poorly written and executed attempt at a half hour of comedy. The only thing worse than the show, was their 30 minute stand up special. Ugh.

[gunnar hendershow]

I liked it and thought it was funny. Unfortunately I don't really watch much TV outside of sports, but I did get quite a few laughs out of this show. It's not the style of comedy most people will constantly tune in to see however, so I don't see it lasting too long unfortunately.

to the Mind of Mencia hater: why put Chappelle's Show above Mencia? their both the same style comedy, but if one was better than the other id have to put Mind of Mencia ahead of Chappelle. Carlos is politically incorrect and i like that in comedy....Comedy Central must think so to since Mencia took Chappelles slot.

Mencia is a total hack. He hypes himself so much as an edgy, dangerous, pollitically incorrect comic and yet every little nugget of shit that comes out of his mouth is completely trite and unoriginal. Nicole Richie is a beaner? Oh Carlos be careful or I might spit out my milk. Lame fat and gay jokes? Oh my sides hurt. Arab parodies of 5 year old Snicker's and Chilli's commercials! Genius!

...In other words, fuck that no talent hack.

And while we're on the topic of Stella, it's the only thing I bother to turn my TV on for this summer. Low brow, absurdist comedy at it's best. Absolutely charming stuff.

Gotta love Comedy Central with it's nice blend of goodness (Stella) and complete shit (Mind of Mencia).

i think Stella is a pretty good show, I have that kind of stupid sense of humor to laugh at these things. But I agree, Mind of Mencia is terrible and needs to be dropped quick...BRING BACK I'M WITH BUSEY!

[GoGo Yubari]

I like Stella. It's like an absurdist, non-slapsticky version of the Three Stooges. I should probably get off my ass and watch it more often.

I loved the "I'm with Dick" episode. That show ruled.

Fuck it, just cancel Stella and Mind Of Mencia and give Michael Ian Black his own show and show Celebrity Deathmatch reruns.

[VerbalPuke]

I've seen one episode of Stella, and I enjoyed it. I've enjoyed the work that the former cast of the State have done since departing that show. Viva Variety, Reno 911, and Hot Wet American Summer (did I get that name right?) being the other projects that various members have worked on. It's all been quality comedy, but I still think the State was their best show.

As much as I don't like Mencia that Midget joke with about the children's crossing sign was great.

I haven't watched to much of Stella.

[ROC]

I heard MTV2 is doing new episodes of Celebrity Deathmatch starting in November. And I believe they occasionally show repeats on MTV2 as well.

When I 1st saw that, I thought "What the fuck is this?" And didn't watch it. Now I see Gary Busey on Celebrity Fit Club and realize that that show was probably halarious.

I don't know, I actually like Mind of Mencia. Something about it gets me. But whatever.

I could care less about Stella, because quite frankly, I think that that show is stupid, so whatever. To each his own, I guess.
