If you read my blog fairly regularly, you probably know that I am a big fan of the comedian Christopher Titus. If you don't, then you should know that I am a fan of the aforementioned guy. Last night, I had the chance to watch the ABC series
Big Shots, the latest TV show he stars in. The show, in its entirety, resounded with mediocrity. It revolves around four guys who are all rich business execs as they go around and try to handle their relationships. Two of the non-Titus characters are the story drivers. They make the TV show fall into the "drama" category, and make it very dull. The only redeemable parts of the show were the comic relief scenes with Titus and/or Joshua Malina. They managed to mix into the boring dialogue some pizazz that the other two seemed to lack. There can never be enough jokes about
Napoleans. I'm glad to see Titus is back on TV being as funny as always, but I just wish he could go back into a comedy. I might stick with the show a bit longer to see how it pans out. Hopefully the producers will up the comedy dosage of the show. If you ask me, the whole show should have been a comedy, but these TV producers never once talk to me. I'm full of ideas!

I'll ignore the fact that this show should be called Big Assholes, and say that the reason the suits over at the network aren't putting in more comedy is because they're trying to recreate an allymcbeal/thepractice type of show. That or, of course, they're possessed by aliens.
It's a plot! A horrible plot to remove anything remotely funny from television!
I love chrit titus he is so fucking funny. How is Lolita? I have been wanting to read it but never got around to it and am wondering if it is even worth reading.
Surely I have to acknowledge that the whole thing you answer comes in with my way of thinking
