so bad it's... bad

I just watched 'lil Bush. The characters remind me of Jay Leno jokes from 2003. I guess it's supposed to be offensive along the lines of South Park or Family Guy, but despite scenes like an adolescent Dick Cheney camping out in Barbara Bush's uterus, the show just doesn't have an edge. Neither witty nor silly, the best thing about the show is 'lil Bush himself - a character that takes our leader's faults and makes them lovable. I get the feeling that if this show survives an entire season, big Bush would do well to embrace it. In fact, if the makers toned down the all-too-forced shock gags, it would be a fairly entertaining Republican roast.



On a positive note, SuperBad looks like a winner on the level of Reno911 or the 40 Year Old Virgin.
