Wonderful character development!

Touches You

The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

OH MY GAWD!! I never laughed so hard in my freaking life! I just watched Fat Actress for the first time....it's gotta be one of the funniest shows I've seen in like....years! Kirsty's sense of ha ha definitely comes out in this show...as it's just so damn "real". Any of you women out there who are "insulted" by the show....get a life...or get a sense of humor at least. It's a show!!!! And it's suppose to be a "comedy". So quite getting all pissy about it...and taking it all so serious. I don't think Kirsty had the intention of insulting anyone when she did this show. Your an amazing actress girl...and I'm looking forward to seeing tons of shows with you on them in the future!! Love, A fan!

Okay, when I saw the first episode, I thought for sure she would be back on top (which is where she wanted to get with the black network exec, kid rock, and who knows who else!) I thought the show is ahead of it's time, funny, witty, stupid, and made you forget about your own fat, miserable, sexless life sleeping on your $39.95 bedsheets (150 count) from Zeller's) I was gravely disappointed when I heard it was cancelled... I think it deserved a second season, at least.I think with a second season we would have seen the cast put more polish on the show overall. I think they would have tweaked out the hilarious scenarios that (apparently) offended just about everybody (gays, crack addicts, fatties, bulimics, midgets, preggos, etc); we would have had a good time watching this fat actress.Go, Kirsite~!

I was expecting a lot more from this show, considering Kirstey's potential, as proved in previous movies and/or shows. The fact that the current show seems to be flopping may be connected to the fact that the actress plays a similar (yet maybe more rewarding monetarily) role in dieting commercials. In other words, these commercials could be perceived as a very condensed version of the show .... so spare some time by watching them instead.Someone asked how come this show got the OK. I do have to ask the same question, as the reason behind accepting this show is not all clear. Does it really bring anything new to the table? Not quite. Pretty soon we could all install Webcams and film ourselves doing whatever it is that we are doing "in the privacy of our own lives" (so much for privacy, really).

I wanted to like this show, I really did. I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt. But what do I get? Cheap, silly, childish gimmicks! The gist of this show is "Waaaaaaaah! I'm fat! Waaaah! Laugh at me! Giggle at my plight and tears!" All throughout this show: Kirstie keeps bemoaning herself. During a scene at the office, A song called "Bubble Butt Fatso" plays. How childish and infantile! This whole "fatso" schtick belongs in the same category as your kindergarten "poopy pants" routine! I was utterly disappointed with Miss Alley. Such a beautiful and talented woman but created such an atrocious and un-funny show. Do not watch this program. It is a waste of air time.
