The Ben Stiller Show (1992–1995)
Too smart for the average plebian
10 July 2003
This show was excellent. Great actors, funny skits, good writing. The problem?? Most of the humour required a brain and some inteligence. Combine that with the 7pm time slot on Sunday night that it was originally on and the fact that Fox totally gave up on it and you have a total cancellation misjustice. The skits were hilarious, The U2 parody, the video diary ("I ate today"), Legends of Springsteen and the Tonight show tryouts were all phenomenally funny. It was an absolute embarassment that the show was not continued even though its contemporary SNL at the time (and since) was horrible! If you can catch this in reruns do so!!
