- Roshz, on 11/10/2009, -3/+460Probably the best use of Twitter, but sounds like a horrible idea for tv
- DLun203, on 11/10/2009, -1/+309I love *****, but I don't think a censored version of it is gonna take off as well as they're hoping.
- freeridstylee, on 11/10/2009, -0/+152Isn't that the dad from Raymond, Seinfeld, the Simpsons, Family Guy? Pretty much insert any other show here that has any sort of father figure. Old guys are funny. We get it.
- Chapman9110, on 11/10/2009, -2/+133This guy is a genius:
"Sometimes life leaves a hundred dollar bill on your dresser, and you don't realize until later that it's because it ***** you."
"Son, people will always try and ***** you. Don't waste your life planning for a *****, just be alert when your pants are down."
"Nobody is that important. They eat, *****, and screw, just like you. Maybe not ***** like you, you got those stomach problems." - atroxodisse, on 11/10/2009, -0/+106When will TV learn that it isn't the internet?
- hummstheword, on 11/10/2009, -1/+103Slightly better than using a myspace slut as the basis of a reality tv show.
- nerddtvg, on 11/10/2009, -0/+78It sounds like every other family based sitcom out there.
- exhale100, on 11/10/2009, -0/+64Sweet! Another "show of the season" that will be canceled after 4 episodes. Taking funny ***** from the internet and applying censors just isn't going to work.
- nepidae, on 11/10/2009, -1/+61"Poop my dad says"?
- ManUnitdFan, on 11/11/2009, -0/+45Now, censor those for network TV. Oops, no more comedy.
- Cyberdropping, on 11/10/2009, -0/+43"The comedy's title will change if it gets on the air..." No *****
This is why it will fail- CENSORSHIP. It wont be funny when it is cleaned up. - EGOvoruhk, on 11/10/2009, -0/+39It's got to be better than the TextsFromLastNight show that's coming
- agentsrecord, on 11/10/2009, -6/+44Even better...
NBC has picked up the rights to the next best show from this genre!
"***** my dad says while he is ***** drunk!" - digitalArtform, on 11/10/2009, -0/+23Abe Vigoda, please. Thank you.
- brikj, on 11/11/2009, -0/+22The profanity is what makes some of the quotes funny. I can't imagine what it would be like cleaned up. Probably not as funny.
- infinitus64, on 11/10/2009, -0/+16Grandpa Simpson: I never thought I could shoot down a German plane. But last year, I proved myself wrong.
- Liam000, on 11/10/2009, -7/+21That guys doesnt need a tv show! he needs to be president.
- bmatherlyjr, on 11/10/2009, -2/+16I am off to create a new Twitter feed "The stupid *****, CBS does".
- Codeman917, on 11/10/2009, -0/+14Agreed. As far as twitter goes, it's pretty entertaining.
I thought this one was particularly insightful... http://twitter.com/*****/status/4811790555 - Awwzm, on 11/10/2009, -0/+13Did CBS want this so that it can have a show to follow "How I Met Your Mother"?
- MWeather, on 11/10/2009, -0/+11Cranky fathers are some of the funniest sitcom characters. A sitcom about a cranky father should do just fine.
- Metalcastr, on 11/10/2009, -0/+11Well, TV used to be made of picture tubes and the internet is a series of tubes, so I guess they both have tubes. Therefore TV = Internet.
- uptwolait, on 11/10/2009, -0/+11Four words: All In The Family.
- allisonaxe, on 11/10/2009, -1/+12Oh, it will be! but this one has the gimmick of being based on a popular meme and/or internet celebrity. Doesn't that just make you want to watch it? WATCH IT. WATCH OUR SHOW YOU MINDLESS TWITTER-ADDICTED DRONE!
You'll like it this time! even though you all hated Cavemen and Baby Bob. - digitalArtform, on 11/10/2009, -0/+10Ed Asner, fresh from 'Up?'
- Glayden, on 11/11/2009, -0/+10I think you dropped this: ,
- haloplayer9672, on 11/10/2009, -0/+10Wait, you submitted a reply based solely after reading the first word of the title? You might have stopped reading, but for some reason still felt the need to comment... -_-
- FueledByAndrew, on 11/10/2009, -1/+11"The baby will talk when he talks, relax. It ain't like he knows the cure for cancer and he just ain't spitting it out."
LMAO - Awwzm, on 11/10/2009, -0/+9Thankfully, Abe Vigoda is alive and well.
- proflacroix, on 11/10/2009, -0/+9hasn't daniel tosh already proven that this is a terrible idea?
- knobbysideup, on 11/10/2009, -1/+10Good for justin. Love reading the feed. It's the only twitter thing I have in my RSS reader. That said, I don't see how this could be a tv show. There's already half a dozen shows with the old-fart humor that the feed is about.
- Asvetic, on 11/10/2009, -0/+9I was thinking the same thing. 99% of the stuff Justin's dad says often refers to how life has ***** him in one way or another. With out those potent *****, life is just kinda dry humping him.
- ybnormalman, on 11/10/2009, -0/+9I love that the only person he's following is LeVar Burton
- burzikak, on 11/11/2009, -0/+9"Will & Grace" creators David Kohan and Max Mutchnick are on board to executive produce and supervise the writing for the multicamera family comedy
well...that's...encouraging - chriskybiz, on 11/10/2009, -0/+8Has potential, but I'm still holding out for the lolcats show.
- seanmx, on 11/10/2009, -0/+7wow. Really? how sad.
- chunkybeefstu, on 11/11/2009, -0/+6I think another reason SMDS became popular is because we receive basically no context of the situations in which SMDS is commenting on. Having no background information adds an element of randomness that would be lost in a context-rich sitcom.
- diggduggDOOM, on 11/10/2009, -0/+6It's the only twitter page I've visited more than once.
I doubt I'll be watching the TV show, but I guess I'm glad that guy's got a job. - veriix, on 11/10/2009, -0/+6Still better then the cleveland show
- asnider, on 11/10/2009, -0/+5This could, maybe, be funny as a movie (and that's a big maybe). As a TV show, they'll have to censor it so much that I can't see it working.
- veriix, on 11/10/2009, -7/+12BRING BACK KING OF THE HILL!!!
/mays lock - atroxodisse, on 11/10/2009, -0/+5The tubes must meet in the middle somewhere then.
- digitalArtform, on 11/10/2009, -0/+5And available, baby! Get his people on the phone and lets do this thing!
- GravyTrain6, on 11/10/2009, -2/+7Why?
- AmyVernon, on 11/10/2009, -3/+8I'd vote for him.
- planktonattack, on 11/11/2009, -0/+5the whole reason the feed is funny is that a: no background to the situation in which the quote was made is given and b: it is true.
By removing those lements what the ***** do you have? A few quips worked into a generic sitcom format? Bullcrap. And how the ***** is texts from last night going to convert into a tv comedy - just people doing embarrassing stuff they regret? how original. These websites are funny as websites, they have no tv translation. - CobraClutch, on 11/10/2009, -0/+4Read all of the tweets in the Tourettes Guy's voice.
- Latigoliath, on 11/10/2009, -0/+4Internet killed the tv star.
- jasons65, on 11/11/2009, -0/+4"Old Man Yells at Cloud"
- Pirate42, on 11/11/2009, -0/+4The grandpa from Raymond is dead ):
He was the only funny thing about that show... -
