BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
bjohnson-55 Although a few years older than these guys, I grew up with them, and knew their family well. I cannot imagine what their mother and father would have to say if they were still living. A very poor image of Dunnellon has been portrayed in this short series. Believe me, these two are in the great minority of the good people of Dunnellon. Surely a slap in the face of many good people. Perhaps the program could have been successful if it had portrayed the positive aspects of this city, and this family. Surely, anyone would could derive any pleasure watching an overweight, disgusting individual sitting on the commode, sharing their bodily functions with the viewers, as well as the sounds has brought television, and the depravity of humanity to a new low. Shame on these guys, the producers, directors, sponsors, and all concerned with this low life attempt at humor. On the other hand, if it was intended to be in such poor taste, and, as disgusting as it was then it was a success. No more PLEASE!
mom6963 I'd just like to say thanks for a "reality" show based on real life humor/embarrassment.I mean we all must have some relatives just like these guys.But frankly we thought it funny as crap.I have not laughed this hard in a very long time,and believe me I needed it.As I am from Leesburg,Fl;and consider myself a country girl raised in the city.This was great.Looking forward to more shows.Best of Luck to "Chicken" in his career ventures.Again thanks for a great show.Michael should be pleased his father does not act any different.Why should anyone act like someone they are not.Be proud of where you come from,and the family that loves you.Family will be there for you when acting/movie opportunities are not,lest not forget that,Please.God Bless each of you.
Virgil Kirkland By far this is the funniest show on TV. I am hoping that they pick up the 2nd season, it would be shameful if Spike doesn't pick it up. After all, what is more "manly" than watching father and son talk while taking a "number 2", and watching dad fart on command!!! Larry the Cable Guy has met his match with these two Rednecks!!! Get Some!!!! I haven't laughed this hard watching a TV show in a very long time... heck I don't even remember the last time I laughed this hard at a movie... If you are into disgusting male humor or just funny rednecks being themselves (not trying to act funny) but actually just being themselves, this is definitely the show for you. Check it out, and lets hope that Spike TV picks up the show for another season!!
djkayess i found this show very very funny, An actor that has been in a few big time movies(xxx,black hawk down) has his father and uncle from Florida come to stay with him and they ensue to embarrass and drive him crazy, One of the funniest parts of the show that seems to be a running gag is Micheal talking to his dad and uncle while there on the toilet i give the show a 10 because i have not had good laughs from a series in a while. It shows you that no matter what you do and how good your doing you should never forget your family because no matter what you do they are there for you and no matter how ill faded of an attempt (I.E. handing out his resume in the streets of Hollywood) you should never be ashamed and even if you do sometimes at least you still are showing you still love them by having them there with you.
