Craig Brown Every week, the folks at Saturday Night Live are tasked with putting on a topical show containing a series of sketches, all of which are intended to make the audience laugh, but many of which fall short of the mark. This show is like a collection of the sketches that bombed. It's awful. It was canceled in South Africa after just one episode, and let me tell you we have some absolute shockers that return for 2nd and 3rd seasons, and I'm not just talking about local programming. Give your dog a bath, do your taxes, learn a foreign language, schedule an appointment with your dentist for that long-overdue root canal work, or just add 30 minutes a week to your life - avoid this show.

Rubens Junior I'm sure that The Comeback is one of the best shows of the last 5 years or more. For a long and long time I haven't seen a so refined comedy series as this one. Lisa Kudrow is perfect as Valerie Cherish giving a so real caricature for the role making you fell ashamed for her attitudes. I think it's the first and unique show that could mix the reality show universe with real life situations without being REAL. Her expressions, her situations, her messes... everything is perfect! It's a shame that the series has been canceled because it was one of the most intelligent and different things that happened in years on television.

david_poon1986 While a very funny show, "The Comeback" is not simply a comedy. It's a very well written show with intricate plot lines, jokes, repercussions, etc.I encourage viewers to buy the DVD because it's a show where every episode matters so much. There's a lot of growth and change as Lisa Kudrow's character is exposed to the realities of modern day Hollywood culture. The situations that Valerie Cherish gets caught in mirror reality so much that episodes surprisingly make you reflect on the culture of America today.Drama? Comedy? Dramedy? It's just a brilliant show.

bamagym I totally got all of it. The incomplete sentences, the eye contact, "yes, no, no, yea, yea.....". Totally. I have the second half of the season on video. It's one of those shows you have to watch like twice and then you get it or like it. Like, 'six feet under' and the 'Nanny'. I'm looking for the DVD. I really hope that they comeback with a comeback. But I can understand that a lot of people wouldn't get it. You have to just get it to get it. You know what I mean. I never liked Lisa Kudrow, in friends or anything else for that matter. But I totally loved her in the show and laughed and cried. I felt sorry for her when she was trying to sing, I will survive. "So what was it? The dress ripping on the red carpet?", "oh...no...onward and upward.."
