penguin This is funny stuff. Not a smutty joke to be had and it is genuinely funny. I wish they had made more episodes. The voiceover from Paul Gross only makes it even funnier. The women aren't love interests and the guys aren't obsessed with chasing women. Occasionally there is some curling too!
Toby Pelletier I didn't like this show (it would appear most people certainly did not like it) but worse than that I didn't even understand it. I still can't figure out why this show was made... how did this happen?Men with Brooms was a harmless, not very good but still much better than this TV version, movie. That movie came out in 2001 or 2002 and did OK for a Canadian film. By that I mean it actually got released in theatres and some ho-hum reviews and word of mouth but overall didn't make much at the box office and probably lost money. Nobody raved about it and it's not like people were still talking about it months let alone years later.So why make a TV version almost a decade later? Especially when you don't even have the good, talented, relatively famous cast they had in the movie? A bunch of no name actors doing a watered down, stretched out, poorly written imitation of a riddled with plot holes movie than wasn't even successful when it first came out like 9 years before. How could they be surprised it flopped? Maybe a movie sequel would have made more sense.Anyway hopefully they don't repeat the same mistake again any time soon. Avoid this show like the plague because it's not even funny, and the movie's not very good either so not worth watching unless you're a huge Paul Gross or Leslie Nielsen fan.
Zoner74 Much better than the movie with the same title. The comedy, although sometimes a little dry, was fantastic. Being a curler and a fan of comedy shows, I really enjoyed this and am saddened that it is so difficult to find or view episodes in the US. The comedy and entertainment value, to me, was a curlers comedy version of somewhere in the middle of "Friends" and "Joey". I honestly thought it would last at least 2-3 seasons. One season was just not enough...So, I am just looking forward to someone letting me know that there will be a DVD release of this show in the near future. Someone, please...
Charles Carmichael Sorry, I've got to disagree, this is far and away the best Canadian comedy on network TV today - way better than Dan for Mayor or Hiccups *shudder*! It's fresh and amusingly funny in its portrayal of small-town Canada - which is not a lame excuse for anything, but rather a genuine pulse on the heartland. I found it neither elitist nor dumbed down, but relatably funny! By touching on social trends like vegetarianism, they're using comedy and comedic ignorance to open up public discourse and understanding - not mockery. Also, the show invites characters of different races into the fray without defining those characters by their race which is so refreshing! Every character is a character, and entertaining ones too, not playing up racial difference for cheap laughs! The cast does a solid job overall and the lead, Brendan Gall, has great comic timing. He's got a definite Seth Rogen vibe going' on. And I'm totally digging Paul Gross' narration. It improves the show much in the same way Ron Howard's did for Arrested Development. The self-conscious, self-referential asides to the audience play for some of the show's best laughs! Oh, and for the record, Paul Gross hasn't lost a step haha Love that guy!
