Description:
Something Smells Funny is US comedian Tom Green's breakthrough TV show, a series of skits that will have you chewing your fist in next to no time. Outside of the States, Green is best known for being married to Drew Barrymore, who positively bubbles with enthusiasm every time his name is mentioned. Beyond that, he remains something of a nothing, though the more media-savvy may be aware of Green's recent battle against testicular cancer, which, in typically fearless fashion, he filmed for the scrutiny of the American public. And if that's all you know about Green, think yourself lucky, because as an entertainer he sucks. He was t
Something Smells Funny is US comedian Tom Green's breakthrough TV show, a series of skits that will have you chewing your fist in next to no time. Outside of the States, Green is best known for being married to Drew Barrymore, who positively bubbles with enthusiasm every time his name is mentioned. Beyond that, he remains something of a nothing, though the more media-savvy may be aware of Green's recent battle against testicular cancer, which, in typically fearless fashion, he filmed for the scrutiny of the American public. And if that's all you know about Green, think yourself lucky, because as an entertainer he sucks. He was that babbling buffoon on the boat in Charlie's Angels, the one who sailed into the sunset with Drew (naturally) at the end of the picture. Not put off? Well, he was also the narrator of Road Trip, the one who puts a live mouse in his mouth and expects it to bring the house down. And now comes the chance to slog through an hour's worth of material from his US TV show. Highlights include the lofty, goateed funnyman trying to open canned food with sticks of M-5000 dynamite; ripping the brains out of dead cows after cracking their skulls open with a baseball bat; and fishing turds out of public toilets with his bare hands. He also gains great mileage from humiliating his parents on camera: if he's not filling their house with llamas and donkeys he's arranging for their car to be spray-painted with lesbian pornography. They must be very proud. What's more, it's all done WITH THE VOLUME TURNED RIGHT UP, Green obviously thinking that the louder you scream the funnier it is. Wrong. --Jamie Graham
