Personally, if it is, and I were his parents, I would vanish without a trace.
I like the other obnoxious stuff he does–but yer parents?? Show a little R-E-S-P-E-C-K.
I think the stuff he does to his parents is the funniest stuff.
Did you ever see when he had the hood of his dad’s car painted with a woman performing oral sex on another woman on it? I think it also said “Slutmobile”.
His dad got so pissed, he went to take the bus to work, and while he’s at the bus stop with a bunch of other people, Tom drives the car up to the bus stop.

Oh, it’s real, all right. Tom Greene has done a show here in Canada for several years–in fact, most of the classic stuff you see (including the items with his long-suffering parents) was shot in Ottawa.
Now he’s gone to the US, I hope he can retain his “edge.”
Tom Green is a Great Canadian ™.

Tom Green is the funniest show on TV.

so you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughts. what’s so amazing about really deep thoughts? Tori Amos
Why the HELL do people watch this show? He’s just an annoying twerp. Where’s the humor? Anyone can be an ass; what’s he doing that’s so original?
Guess what? Tom Green’s screen name is SadKornyGuy. They’re the same person: Idiotic, abrasive, and as unfunny as a root canal.
There’s a “Best Of Tom Green” tape in stores now! For a low, low price of $10.99, you can have over one hour of Tom’s best skits!
Hurry, supplies are limited!

We are the children of the Eighties. We are not the first “lost generation” nor today’s lost generation; in fact, we think we know just where we stand - or are discovering it as we speak.
I agree, the stuff to his parents was pretty funny. The latest I ‘heard’ was that he went to a bar mitzvah dressed as Hitler. If that’s true, then I say fuck him, I don’t want to ever watch anything with him in it again.
Can anyone confirm or deny?

Tom Green just shows that any idiot with a camera can get famous. He’ll go away, much like the Jerky Boys.
He did give me an idea for my own show. I think it would be fun to drive around with a camera and tape people being idiots in traffic. Then chase them down and harass them about their driving. At least I’d be picking on people who deserve it. I’d have to work to keep it fresh though… maybe I can use it as a bit on my talk show. I’d better go call my people.

Computers have let mankind make mistakes faster than any other invention, with the possible exception of tequila and handguns.
A guy on the web was doing a offshoot of that earlier idea. He had a camera mounted on his ash and every morning when he went to work, he would take pictures of the back of a bad driver and then post the picture and a description of his offenses along with some hilarious commentary about the asshole. I think it was in Seattle when he ran it but everyone loved it till some asshole that made his list a couple of times put a cease and desist on him.
Still GREAT IDEA. I think i will ressurect it.
The key to finding the hunor in Tom Green is not that he’s an obnoxious, abrasive idiot. It’s that he’s an obnoxious, abrasive idiot who pushes the routine all the way to the line and then passes it. It’s the fact that he takes it to the extreme that makes it so hilarious/horrifying.
