I hardly ever watch TV, but I've caught this show a couple times and it had me ROFL.

Too stupid for me to enjoy. Too much crass and not enough intelligent humor.

Better things to do I guess.

That show rocks! It's Always Sunny in Philidelphia is another favorite of mine. At least not everything on TV is crap anymore.

I find it pretty amusing, but not funny enough to watch it regularly. The episode where they guy had them shoot his neighbors dog is absolute classic.

Alot of it is improvised. I own 3 of the seasons and the movie on DVD. Hillarious.

The show runs the range from over-the-top silly to very subtle... Hit or miss on a gag-to-gag level, but overall really good improv comedy.

That's part of my love/hate relationship with Reno. If those guys could write material like that the show would be exponentially better, because it'd be consistently fantastic. As it is it's a show I love with the forbidden love of a really hot relative.
