Video -- Kath & Kim is Just Horrible, and Now It's Off My DVR List

Kk_leads2

Ironically, I've been thinking all week about how that ABC comedy Carpoolers from Bruce McCulloch (Kids in the Hall) last year was so much better than this dreck. And I betcha it cost less to produce.

Then Fred Goss, the lead in Carpoolers, shows up to play Phil's friend.

Kk_kath_philfriend I have dutifully watched every episode of Kath & Kim, it's on my DVR series manager. Well, it was.

As of last night it's gone.

Because it's just making me sad to see these people I enjoy in other shows and movies have to debase themselves like this.

Imagine going from a Christopher Guest movie to this -- that's what John Michael Higgins' experience is. Molly Shannon had just come off Year of the Dog, a great little film written by Mike White when she signed on for this.

And Selma Blair was in a summer blockbuster, Hellboy 2.

If I was any one of the performers mentioned above, I would ...

a) Fire my agents and managers

b) Vow never to work for NBC again.

c) Find a great indie to do, fast.

Just to be fair, after the jump I've embedded the entire episode from Hulu. If you laugh once, just once, I wanna know about it.
