Seriously, I find many of the skits hilarious despite the fact that some of them are rather mysogynistic.

And I like the "Juggies".

And I love "Girls jumping on trampolines".

Should I be shot? :-(

1. I'm a feminist and I love that show
It's a massive, hyperbole making fun of themselves, IMO...

2. Do you prefer the old one or the new one?
I like the old one.. But after it changed hands it just hasn't been the same.

10. I've only seen it recently
So it must be the "new" one. If I like it now and the old version was funnier I wish I'd seen it then....

13. Right on!
The Old Version was hillarious, It just has not been the same since it changed hands. I think they tried to pretty it up and make it a little bit cleaner...

9. I hate the Man Show.
It has nothing to do with being a woman or a feminist, either. I just think it's stupid and unfunny.

Chappelle's Show runs circles around that lame ass crap.

14. While I like the Man show....
I must say, the Chapelle Show is freaking hillarious. I'd take the Chapelle Show over the Man Show any day of the week.

12. Another chick for The Man Show
I haven't seen it in a long time, since I haven't had pay (read: ANY) television service for over a year now. I didn't even know they had a now and then... I hope it's not crappy now!

I watched that show OFTEN - and loved it.

If you're to be shot, sister, then I'll be beside you! :)

18. I don't like the show that much, but it has it's funny moments.
A few weeks ago, I got in a very silly mood (I don't need to drink to get this silly either), starting jumping on my bed and doing somersaults in my underwear saying "I'm a juggie. Woo-hoo." My soon-to-be ex just said a was an evil tease and left the room. :scared: (I suppose he was right, but sometimes I can't contain my excessive perkiness when it happens.
