It has jumped now that Adam is going to be on "Dances with the Stars".. how can anyone take anything he ever said on the Man Show seriously now.... hypocrite!
I watched every week until The Fox died of prostate cancer. I can't believe alcohol didn't kill him. then I watched less but it was still good until Jimmy and Adam left. The fox was the funniest part at firs and the rest got better over time. Joe and Doug were horrible. Hard to come up with a word about how bad they were. the show finally completely jumped when they took over. R.I.P. Fox.
The Man Show…Hmmm, a very difficult show to give a definite opinion on. There were things I liked and things I disliked about the show. I’ll start with the good. I liked how the atmosphere was one where you could be proud to be a guy and have a good sense of humor about the whole thing. I liked Adam and Jimmy’s general light-hearted vibe. The sketches and episodes featured some truly funny and memorable moments like: Adam visiting that dildo factory, the commercial for the CD “Pure Retro Rockin’ Rock”, the bachelorette party Adam and Jimmy went to, the “Man Show Deodorant” commercial, Jimmy near tears on the final episode, that man that pretended to be Jimmy’s infant son, the farting parody of “Raging Bull”, The Fox downing beer after beer, and Jimmy’s retort to the Good Time Party Boys: “Good times!”. There were a lot of truly good-humored segments. Now, for the bad: Their studio audiences looked like jerks 90% of the time. I didn’t like some of their criticisms of women, which at times went way overboard. The Man Show Boy was never funny. The audience Q & A was just filler and rarely funny. That Mardi Gras episode was borderline unwatchable. They had too many specials which were just compilation episodes. The repetitive nature of a lot of the jokes threatened to push the show into shark jump territory. So…see? This is a very difficult show to form a conclusive opinion about. I went ahead and voted that the show jumped the shark when Adam and Jimmy left, but I was very, very close to just choosing Day One. It’s a show with both a lot to like and a lot to dislike. Eventually, though, the show won me over just because it was, in general, a humorous show about being a man.
Doug and Joe were the best things to happen to that show. The show was never any good and they did the right thing and buried it. If Doug is doing stand up in your area I suggest you check him out, he probably won't be around much longer.
Doug Stanhope and Joe Rogan are an embarrassment to human civilization in general. The show was okay before, but when these two guys came in, it was over.
Adam Carolla and Jimmy Kimmel are gods, on the other hand Joe Rogan and Doug Stanhope are hoes. I own every season of the man show and its the greatest show I've ever seen.
I find offense in the post that an individual said "I found humor in Schindler's List"! This is a horrible statement ...
Anyway great show Adam and Jimmy were perfect for it aftr they left it died!
The type of people that did not like this show are the type of people that wish TV would be composed of only Lawernce Welk Show Programming; and also people that think Schindler's List is funny!

Dude, that whole "they just don't get it" line is bull. People laugh at what they consider to be true. If someone told horribly racist jokes, racists would laugh hysterically. Others would be pissed off exactly for the same reasons people would be laughing. Laughter reflects your opinion, so when guys on this forum pout, "They just don't get it and never will!" as if that's a winning argument, it's just pathetic.
There's a difference between stereotypes (girls talk too much or are too emotional, for ex.) and saying men are supposed to control women (Imagine replacing that with: whites should control blacks). If it's just a joke, why are people so defensive about it? Why, if you rail against sensitivity, do you whine about people not having enough humor, as if that's a tragedy? If you think it's funny, you shouldn't throw a hissy fit if someone calls you out on it.
The Man Show jumped for me when the guys (Jimmy and Adam) went after those little girl scouts (I caught a rerun of it later on, after I had watched for a season). Dude, picking on kids? C'mon.

Adam Corrola is the most unfunny person on the face of the planet. How this guy got any type of entertainment contract is due to some form of nepotism, payoff, or the fact that he must be very proficient at giving head.
Every time I see this unibrowed, smarmy reason for abortion, I want to beat him senseless.
It's a sad testimony to the deterioration of comedy that this idiot gets any type of forum for his "talent".
I found more humor in Schindler's List than I do in anything this idiot has starred in or produced, including that insulting "Crank Yanker's" crap that sinks to making fun of the handicapped for cheap laughs.
Here's to hoping that very soon, he gets inoperable liver cancer.

I'm so glad there are others who disliked this show besides me. If I had the remote I would have changed the channel in a heartbeat...but it was someone else's turn so I had to be fair. I tried to be gracious and watch but after 5 minutes I excused myself and found something else to do. I was told I didn't like it because I'm a woman. I said no...I just had good taste. Sorry when they used a young boy to get beer, allow him to use horrible language and be disrespectable to woman. Whoa, That was it I never watched even 5 minutes of it ever again.
Adam & Jimmy are 2 teenage perverts who never grew up. When Adam was the perverted balance to Dr Drew's show, it didn't make too much sense. He was perfect for the man show. Jimmy is a guy whose teenage mind rules him (even on his talk show today).
Doug and Joe just just took the same material and never really made it their own. Joe, you can't host The Man Show like the way you host Fear Factor!
