The ½ Hour News Hour (2007)
This show is hilarious
Most of this show is laugh out loud funny. Who cares if there is a laugh track, it just makes the show funnier. It is good to have a comedy to watch where the main joke is not the President. Thanks to good ratings, it now has a full season to entertain.
It's great the the actors are not easily recognizable. It gives the show the 'local news' type of feel. And, unlike an earlier reviewer, I found the "BO magazine" skit to be fall down funny. I'll bet even Mr. Obama laughed.
American television has too long been run by those with a liberal mindset. It's good to see the other side, and I'll keep watching.
Luminarias (1999)
Actually, there was a lot of realism in this movie
It was funny and I enjoyed it. I have sat at tables with a group of Latinas and heard similar comments. This movie was about a group of friends whose commonality was their ethnicity. The ladies were letting loose and having fun. And as an audience participant, I was having fun watching them.
I had to disagree with the other reviewer. Just because a woman is a "professional" doesn't mean that she has to use the lingo of her trade all the time. And have heard "professionals" who, away from the job, revert back to their comfort speech. That is what these ladies were doing.
