stupidtom1991 ABC, as a network, flirts with awfulness all the time. They air the bachelor, gave that racist imbecile Roseanne a platform and have fox news puppet Meghan McCain on The View. They seem to know how to kill joy. The Gong Show however is pure joy! It's the perfect show to turn your brain off for an hour and just kick back and smile. I love it! Mike Myers is great as ever in deep character and the acts are a consistent mix of gut laughter that will leave you asking "Wtf?". All in all I hope ABC keeps this around for as long as they keep those stupid bachelor shows on. Its essential viewing for the pre-apocalyptic world!
bruceflashback I am a fan of the original Gong Show from the days that Chuck Barris put in on TV in the mid 70's and am probably one of the toughest critics of any reboots of the show.I did not like the 80's version or the Extreme Gong Show.So when I decided to check out the 2017 version,I expected not to like it.However, it surprised me.The set ,the style the mood and most importantly the acts were reminiscent of the original .The acts had the crazy feel that I thought would be lost in any new versions of The Gong Show. The weak link, in my opinion , is the host. He is kind of lackluster ,but that doe snot lessen the show for me.It is definitely a good 21st century version of The Gong Show.
mfknight-96190 What I enjoy is simple entertainment at it's best. The Tommy Mateland character is funny and to watch him converse with the judges with simple adult humor is delightful. I also think the contestants are very brave to know they are performing in front of a real audience and on TV for the folks at home. Some contestants are very talented and this could be the venue to show off their craft. I also enjoy the good old fashioned sing-a-long, not found in too many establishments today. People of all ages are in the audience and they seem to enjoy themselves without any scripting. No laugh tracks it's amazing. Keep up the good work.
Karl Gustov A refreshing break from all the Reality, celebrity worship, big brother BS. Simple predictable slap stick comedy from the genius of "Tommy Maitland". Great mindless family entertainment. Super talented house band, awesome guest judges, snappy set. In fact, hack entertainer's like Mike Myers might want to pay attention, they could learn much from TM.
