Does the man show suck? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I think it really sucks. I've only ever seen a few funny things on it, and most of the time it is SERIOUSLY demeaning to women. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not like Albert Speer or anything but... I'm a guy, I like sex, women, good stuff etc...
but even I find this show reprehensible!

I hate it too, only I find it seriously demeaning toward men since the show treats us as such neanderthals.

Not only do I find it offensive as someone who respects women, I find it offensive as someone who enjoys humor.

NO WAY!

The Man Show is good stuff. I watch it all the time. It is insanely hilarious! Especially with kids on the street selling beer and how to deal with the wife. Very very good stuff.

Oh, and btw, my GIRLFRIEND loves it just as much as I do . She just doesn't watch the girls on trampolines .

I find it demeaning when people find shows demeaning because they don't like what it represents...

That show is hilarious! Kids selling beer is funny... so is the wheel of destiny, that segment is great. I don't think it demeans men or women, because I think is quite obvious the show isn't meant to be taken seriously at all. So long as you aproach as a comedy show and not political commentary like it seems some of you are doing it is great.

Exactly. I don't like it because of the women either, I do it because it's damn funny.

It's a comedy, the people who take it so seriously to find it demeaning are missing the obvious. Figures that they're commies, though.

I just spent 3 hours in a gay bar with 2 women. So can't be!

I think one of the funniest moments was when Adam and Jimmy visited a day spa. Jimmy had some weird cream all over his face, and asked Adam how he looked. Adam replied:

"Like you just finished a gay porno."

I laughed uproariously.

While I was in college I didn't have a T.V. for a year so my roommate and I ended up listening to Love Line on a more or less regular baises. That show is great but it does get a bit repetetive.

As long as you view it knowing what it is, I see no harm, the demeaning is way over done so no one can take it seriously. It's just funny. And they seem to add enough so it doesn't get too stale. As long as there's cable, there'll be room for a show like this.

In some parts it can go overboard, but overall I think it's pretty funny.
