This show is so atrociously bad and completely empty of even the thought of humour let alone the presence of any attempt to make any real comedy- - actually I can't even think of words to describe how bad this show is.
I mention Dave Foley in the summary title line but maybe that is not very fair to him since he is the only person in this steaming dog's breakfast of a show who has any ability whatsoever to be funny at all. Believe it or not he is not even bad in this show.
The problem with this show is that he has nothing and I do mean nothing as in absolutely zero to work with. He is given horrible jokes and expected to spin fecal matter into gold. I am guessing the script was written by a 70 year old man who used to really be an important writer back on the best sitcoms of the seventies and eighties like Webster, because the story and one dimensional stereotypical stock characters and the coma inducing jokes are so pathetic and just feel as though they are coming from some horrible place that time and comedy both forgot.
The rest of the cast seem to come from the reject pile of a local used car lot commercial. There's a pretty girl who is a fish out of water, another pretty girl who is supposed to be one of the guys and who has some kind of romantic entanglement with the male star, the male star who is about as interesting as a bowl of water and who couldn't deliver a line or a joke to save not just his own life but the entire planet, the office dolt who says the stupidest things (because I guess for some reason that is supposed to automatically make him funny instead of so annoying that he enraged us every time he opened his damn stupid mouth?), and the male star's office wonder boy gay friend who is incredibly drab and is maybe the worst actor of the bunch which is really saying something. Then there is for some reason the bald office yes man who is a cross between Dwight from The Office (attitude) and the bald dean from Community (seriously this guy looks and acts exactly and I do mean exactly like the guy from Community which I guess is supposed to make him and this show funnier but actually all it does is completely ruin Community for me). The entire cast is so bad I think CTV would be doing themselves a favour if they put them all in a boat along with all the tapes and scripts of this show, rowed it out to the middle of the nearest lake then started drilling holes until the sweet freezing water swallowed them all possibly saving Canadian television forever. Of course I am exaggerating but my point is this show truly is one of the absolute worst pieces of television I have ever had the displeasure of watching. In my entire life. It. Really. Is. That. Awful.
I had super low (almost zero) expectations for this show and still somehow you managed to blow those negative expectations out of the water by actually being worse than zero. I would have been entertained more sitting and staring at a blank television screen for half an hour. No I'm not saying that to be funny or mean I am saying that because it is literally true, I could have at least used my imagination or thought about something productive rather than be confused and get angry watching a cast of misfits try desperately to deliver lines that maybe could not have even been funny in the first place.
Dave Foley if you ever read this please run-- don't walk but run away from this ape turd of a show as fast and as far as you possibly can. Just don't stop running until you can no longer hear the pathetic and desperate laugh track begging you to laugh along with it in the hope of convincing you that something in this show is actually funny, because nothing is except for you, and you hopefully will come to your senses and run away run away run away!
Why oh why oh why can't I give this show a zero? The minimum I can give it apparently is one out of ten and that seems way too good for this show.
Please someone I beg you to burn these tapes and let's all agree never to even mention this show ever again because it is just too painful to even think about this bear vomit of a dung fest.
