New hosts, Joe Rogan and Doug Stanhope. Not quite up to par with the original, I think. They tried too hard to be Adam and Jimmy. The first skit was good, with the prostitution skit. After that the Ass-Crack game show was just stupid. The investing company thing was also a entertaining. Did I miss a beer chug? They can’t take out “ziggy zoggy.” That and girls on trampolines are the two things I think essential to make it “The Man Show.” They seem like funny guys, but they’re going to have to work on interacting better with each other. Rate it a B-. ---

The best parts of The Man Show with Adam and Jimmy was the sense of two really good friends doing what they love and making each other laugh. I got none of that with the new show. Hopefully, the new show can develop into something good as well. I’ll give a chance and watch a few more shows.
