Barely Famous
(2015)

The Fact that People Don't Think This is Funny is a Symptom of Cultural Stupidity...
I love good comedy, but I am extremely picky. I came upon this show on accident, but I really enjoyed Sara Foster in "The Big Bounce," so I gave it a shot. By the end of the day, I had purchased both seasons on Google Play and had a major laugh fest. Sara and Erin are incredible comedians and their willingness to be self-deprecating lends itself so well to the hilarity. Throughout the show, you are treated to A-List cameos from Cindy Crawford, Kate Hudson, Nicole Richie, Zach Braff, Chelsea Handler, Leslie Grossman, Milla Jovovich, Courteney Cox, etc. It is truly a genius clusterfuck of laughter.

I have exposed a number of friends to the show and I find that the ones who enjoy it tend to be my smarter friends. The humor is subtle and if you can't embrace the concept from the jump, you're doomed. At the end of the day, this show is a work of fiction. If you watch it thinking it's a reality show, you're going to think it's dumb. This is more a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" type of a show. These amazing women are acting and that is such a testament to their prowess as thespians. Their lines are executed with surgical precision and they NEVER miss a beat.

If you like esoteric, smart humor and enjoy genius performances, this show is for you. If you are a fan of Rom-Coms and need your humor to be "in-your-face" overt and you are basic, go watch "Sweet Home Alabama" and move to the suburbs. This is a masterpiece. If you don't get it, sorry about your life. VH1, bring back my show! I have waited too long. The Foster sisters are incredible and they belong in the brightest of your spotlights!
