i just love this show! i think it is Andy Dick at his best. he was wonderful on Newsradio but this is his show and it is hilarious. my favorite character that he does is Daphne Agularia. i like other shows on MTV like TRL, say what kareoke, jackass, and celebrity death match but the Andy Dick show is the best.

Catherine_Grace_Zeh1 August 2006"THE ANDY DICK SHOW," in my opinion, is an absolute ABC classic! I haven't seen every episode, but I still enjoyed it. It's hard to say which episode was my favorite. However, I think it was always funny when a mishap occurred. I always laughed at that. Despite the fact that it was a short-lived series, it was nice that all of the main characters had stayed with the show throughout its entire run. It seems that no one stays with a show throughout its entire run. Everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, I hope someone brings it back on the air for fans of the show to see.

klintmcintire13 February 2011This short-lived series was, in my opinion, the greatest collection of sketch comedy ever. "The Andy Dick Show" is without doubt one of the most under-appreciated comedy shows of all time. Unfortunately, the series still hasn't been released on DVD (as of February 2011). I'm guessing that there must be some sort of conflict between Andy Dick and MTV, otherwise I can't fathom why the series was never given a DVD release. Unless you're able to find a VHS to DVD bootleg on Ebay (what I had to do), or a torrent file of the series, I'm afraid to say it's impossible to presently watch this comedic paragon. Check it out if you're able to.

Another show back from the turn of the century MTV, along with MTV's Fear, The Tom Green show, Daria, and Beavis and butthead re-runs and before Teen Mom and 2,000 episodes of Ridiculousness per day made up the programming.
The sketches are unique, original, and difficult to explain to anyone who hasn't seen an episode. Andy Dick as "Marilyn Poppins", in a strange mash-up of Marilyn Manson (Andy Dick) remaking the children's movie as a rock opera. Andy Dick's home movies from childhood, with Andy as drunken dad and young Andy played by a youthful Frankie Muniz ("Malcolm in the Middle"). And my favorite, Andy Dick impersonating Tom Green while taking "Da Brat" to the grocery store. The only thing certain about each episode is you never knew what bizarre twist Andy would throw into the episode.
Much like Dick himself, this show was at times quite raunchy and some of it was certainly of questionable taste. Not quite SNL or even Mad TV, but raunchier than both put together, that was the Andy Dick show. -
fashionbabe8013 September 2001I have read some of the comments of "The Andy Dick Show." I can't belive you people say that about Andy. He is cute and funny. My friend and me we never miss an episode and we love to intimidate he's skits. So what I'm saying watch Andy once and give him a chance.

hmm_7 September 2001ANDY DICK DOES NOT BELONG ON MTV! He should move his show to HBO or Showtime. More flexible timeslots, and freedom to do more than what MTV is letting him do. Oh yeah obscenities un-bleeped also would be cool. I agree with the first person who commented about this show, Dick is a funny and talented person, he shouldn't have to prove this by only giving MTV ratings.

squeezewax2 July 2004I was familiar with Andy Dick from Newsradio, but was introduced to the real comedy of Andy Dick by his MTV show.
It was amazing! So funny and creative. I looked forward to seeing his new shows and then...it was gone!
To this day, I remember those hilarious Andy Dick skits and sketches, Kid Christ, The Anus and Andy Show, Daphne Aguilara, Marilyn Manson. I still have the clam-al-toe song in my head.
I cannot believe MTV let the Andy Dick Show go. He is a true gem of comedy and I am a now a big fan of Andy Dick. I am looking forward to seeing his new show on MTV, The Assistant, but I miss the old one. So I'll be here waiting and waiting for a DVD. Please let there be one?! -
HogMild7 March 2001The Andy Dick Show (as broadcast on MTV) is a mediocre sketch comedy show that basically spoofs MTV programs and pushes the limits of TV censoring.
Although Andy Dick is a brilliant comedian, it seems that this show could do better. (Dick does not belong on a Music Television Station, he belongs on HBO.) In order to understand many of the jokes, you have to be familiar with MTV programs and it seems that MTV is trying to re-create the success they had with the inane Tom Green Show by giving a wildly unpredictable comedian his own half hour program.
There are moments that are absolutely priceless (Dick teaching a Prison Guard how to intimidate prisoners, and a documentary about Dick's personal assistant who, among other things, changes Andy's diapers and pre-chews his food), and there are moments that make you want to change the channel (the entire "Boogie Man" skit).
Andy Dick, (who writes, stars AND directs) is an amazingly gifted person and it is unfortunate that the only way to see this man's talents is by giving MTV ratings. -
axeugene24 July 2001Is he the next Jim Carey or Peter Sellers? No. Yet compared to Adam Sandler or Rob Shneider he's as good or better. His self depreciating style and satire (often of himself personally)is superb all the while turning up the notch for spectacle. his dead on spoofs of MTV are hysetrically on track. The "Daphnie Aguilera" skit is a gem! If you're looking for the next Woody Allen or still don't accept any thing funny that isn't Monty Python than rent you videos and don't turn on the TV. Andy Dick is however a funny and clever twist to a rather boring channel. Sorry Ben Stiller and Tom Green but "the little clown that..who cries" is just smarter with belly laughs included!

The Andy Dick Show(on MTV) is where comedian, director, actor, and script writer Andy Dick showcases his talents in hilarous skits that range from a coach making his team play football nude to a show with a butt puppet interviewing Ben Stiller. All in all, some of the sketchs totally suck but theres always at least one gem in an episode. Andy Dick is super funny in his show.

hustongregor6 April 2004Everyone is failing to mention the question mark guy who runs around trying to sell his book saying you'll get free money from the government. Dick makes this skit great by saying you can have sex with the entire country of Thailand....FREE!!! or something like that. You also can not leave out Zitty, who is trying to become a male model, while eating beef jerky from his portfolio and using crisco as an acne wash. Or the cell phone executive with a giant tumor on his ear. Daphne Aguilera was funny at first, but I became tired of it by the end. Although that clam juice or whatever skit was pretty damn funny. All in all, it was a great show that should come out on DVD soon, hopefully.

DavidBermanFan22 May 2002Andy Dick is a brilliant comedian, and this show was hysterical, although there should have been some revisions. For example, the actor who played David Berman (Andy's personal assistant) was terrible, and the should have had David Berman himself play the part. Also, the Boogie Man skit was a good idea, but it could have been presented better. However, the Andy Dick Show did have its shining points like the David Berman, Shawn Green, and Daphnie Agulera scetches, which is reason enough to watch the show.

noizyme14 March 2006This show was a great return for Andy Dick for his own show (much like his work on Ben Stiller's confusing whirlwind of a show). Everyone remembers Daphne Aguilera and his Marilyn Poppins characters. I loved the stalker-for-hire sketch and just about everything that was shown on this show.
I hope that the lawsuit filed against the crew of the show goes through so they can deliver the goods on DVD soon (or in my lifetime). This was one for the MTV books because, if I remember right, this was a great and hugely comedic show for them. I hope all goes well with a release of the DVD again.
