According to Jim

Who is watching this show?? It's just absolutely not funny at all. I know with some of these horrible shows, the network likes to push and keep it on longer than it deserves to see if it will catch on, but this thing has been on for years. I don't understand how shows like Arrested Development, Futurama, Sons & Daughters (which was on for maybe a month), and even Family Guy don't make it on the air, yet this show continues to thrive and get moved to a better time slot. Is it just me who can watch this show and not even smile?

I'm with you, LUConn. Fox 21-27 even runs 'Jim' in syndication now and I can't help but thinking they're losing money on that deal. The Living Belushi is probably 1/8th as funny as the Dead Belushi ever was.

Great show that started to cave when it went opposite Idol last year. Now, we hardly know when it's on. I still think its hilarious when it IS on.

call me a cynic but I can't watch the show without thinking "no way a fat load like Belushi gets a young blonde wife."

aside from drugs.

Yeah, Henry...I bet you're a regular twinkle toes...
...Jim is great TV. Not one but TWO reasonably attractive (OK, HOT) females. And Andy is disgustingly funny.

After two decades in television, I have learned to never underestimate the horrendous taste of much of the viewing public. Quality rarely has anything to do with ratings.

Actually, the Desperate Housewive that plays Lynette was the "reasonably attractive" blonde producer on that show.
