A Turd You Must Watch to Believe Frank D'Angelo is a living joke in Toronto, watch this show and you will see why. Just look up any of the articles or reviews about him or this show in any real Toronto publication (seriously go Google it right now) and you'll see what a small and arrogant little man he is... and worse than that. One of the articles even outlines how he kinda sorta threatened the journalist there to review his show and screamed threats at crew members about how he should kill them (totally not kidding, seriously you should Google this stuff right now for a run read), and he did this all knowing that the journalist was there! No human being acts this way but he is for real. He is what happens when he inherits a bunch of money and is raised to believe he's the most special boy in the whole world. He's wasting who knows how much money buying this air time (this is commercial time that he buys) and even though he adds "commercials" to the "show" to make it look like a real show, his ego is so huge he's in all the commercials too!
Is this show awful? Yes. Worst ever? I don't know but it belongs in the running for that title. Am I saying not to watch it? No way! Definitely check it out. Watching it once or twice is enough to have as much fun as you're gonna have, but it is for sure worth checking out just to see that this is a real actual person that really exists.
Many of the commercials are also for his "movies" that he famously shoots in one weekend (because he rents all his stuff over a weekend because that's how to save money on film equipment rentals I guess). Unlike the show those movies are just bad, not funny bad, and not worth watching. The posters are funny though if you can get hold of one. He directs, stars, does all the songs (did I mention he's a "famous" singer?), writes, etc, etc.
Oh also the show is taped in the basement of his restaurant and the audience has like five people in it who I would bet good money are there because they're getting paid or employees who are threatened with being fired, or family members of this clown d'Angelo, or all three.
You should also read all of the reviews here. Hundreds of positive votes and reviews all popped up for this show and his movies and they are a very funny read. Check them out and you'll see why.
Definitely check out this show if you enjoy a good train wreck!
