    This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

    Everyone is saying, "it was so overly sexist it was suppose to be funny". It wasn't OVERLY sexist. It was a show about men, what men think, what men like, bouncing hooters. Come on, it was a MAN'S show. Stupid women need to go back and watch their "sexist" The View. STFU on what men want to watch. It's not your place to determine rather a show is "sexist". It's a show made for men, kindof like the Victoria Secret Angels Runway Show. Yes......that's made for men. And if you are going to label The Man Show "sexist", then you need to do the same for VS.

    The bottom line: this show is not funny.Other than beer and women, there is not much that makes this show a "man" show. And despite your feelings on the political incorrectness of the show, the main thing is that it is very lame entertainment. It is rarely funny, even in a stupid way. It seems pretty obvious that Adam and Jimmy just contrived this show as a way to get a paycheck, drink beer, and hang out with hot chicks. Great fun for them, but why would we want to watch?? I'll be happy when Comedy Central stops showing this dreck.

    I'm not surprised in this PC world that almost everyone has forgotten the meaning of the word "sarcasm". That is mainly what "The Man Show" is: a blatant attempt at sarcasm to shock and horrify, but in all cases, it's pretty harmless, much like a well placed whoopie cushion."The Man Show" is a glorification, for lack of a better word. It is the glorification of men who like a cold beer, a succession of fart jokes, a display of midgets, and, last but certainly not least, girls on trampolines. It screams "WE'RE HERE, WE'RE PIGS, AND WE'RE NOT GONNA CHANGE!!". At least, when the girlfriends/wives aren't around, as Jimmy demonstrates. Yes, ladies, your men ARE engaging in dirty jokes at the office, beer binges after work, and (this is for my sister-in-law in particular) sneak-peeks at "Lexx" when you leave the room. I have a feeling that the same women who jump and scream about "The Man Show" are the same ones that would sneak off to a Chippendales review at the drop of a hat, but that's just me.Not only is "The Man Show" a glorification of "typical juvenile male behaviour", it also relishes in making fun of the very lifestyle it is putting on a pedestal. On a recent Labour Day episode, Adam and Jimmy decided to salute the American Stripper "G-String Divas"-style and the guys in the audience were THRILLED, until the clip showed MALE strippers, with Adam and Jimmy as the stars. A big "Ha Ha" to all the guys who thought they were gonna get their jollies off.Before anyone goes on again about "women being used as sex objects", please, it's old. The human body is an art form and if the Juggies feel comfortable dancing around for the audience's entertainment, more power to them. I find some pretty good ideas for risque Halloween or bondage costumes from the Juggies. And since I'm on the subject of women, the only ones they attack on the show are the women I love to hate myself: the ladies who feel that it is their husbands JOB AND DUTY to pay for all her wares and shopping sprees while she refuses to work and sits at home watching Oprah all day. My hubby and I have separate jobs and bank accounts. We are financially independent from one another while still living in a union. To me, THAT'S what feminism is about. Anyway, I'll get off my soapbox long enough to say that the segment of "What Are These Broads Thinking?" was pretty funny and apart from being in the "woman's natural habitat: THE MALL" which might offend some women, the questions, such as "Who's your female hero?" and "Why all the shoes?", were pretty well thought out and successful handled by the unsuspecting females.If this show isn't for you for whatever reason, do us all a favour and shut off your television. For the fans out there who get it, including my mother and mother-in-law, it's an unadulterated assault on the senses and funny bone, if not a little on the mind.

    When I first heard of the Man Show, I thought, this is great. It's O and A on TV. And I must admit that the first few episodes and moments in various episodes afterwards are excellent. But overall, there are some things wrong with this show. For one thing, you sometimes don't always get the feeling Adam and Jimmy aren't just talking to each other regularly, as if nearly everything they say is from a teleprompter, and sometimes the bits do get a tad old, as does the always there audience. Still, there are some good things about the show, including the ziggy, ziggy, ziggy, ziggy, hahaha guy who drinks beers faster than anyone, the looks in the closets of Adam and Jimmy's chick's, and the always eternally exceptional Girls on trampolleens (however, even that can get old after the 86th time).
