I just watched Dennis Miller’s first show on CNBC, wow did that suck.
The first part of the show Dennis decided that instead of coming up with new comments/jokes he would just repeat everything we’d already heard about the show.
Most of his opening comments were previously seen damn near word-for-word here, specifically:
“Nine-11 changed me, I’m shocked that it didn’t change the whole country, frankly.”
and
“If two gay guys want to get married, I couldn’t care less. It’s their business. If some foreigner wants to blow their wedding up, I want my government to eliminate him.”
After the most boring interview I’ve ever witnessed with an international superstar/Governor of California, Dennis went back to what made him famous, Weekend Update- this time rebranded “Daily Rorschach”
This was pure death. At least with a studio audience you get nervous twitters when a joke bombs, here we have an overzealous producer leading the crew in the most forced laughter since reel three of Tim Burton’s Batman. “C’mon boys, laugh as if your jobs depend on it, because they do!”
So, at the end of the Weekend Update segment, Dennis says “Guess what folks? That’s the news and I am out of here…” Unfortunately for Dennis (and us) this was only at the 31 minute mark.
After the commercial Dennis gave a monologue about Fox News owing him money. Commercial. Next was a segment called “The Varsity” basically three right-wingers against a lefty. Basic point of the Right wingers? The CIA misled our fearless president about WMD. Lefty response: eye-roll
Commercial.
Closing arguments, good night. stage goes dark… “And another thing” rant about killing the space program. Good night again.
This show is going to be on every week night? How is that possible when you’re already recycling jokes from last week?
CNBC better start looking for a replacement.
