You, sir, are crazed. I love Will Ferrell but I couldn't even finish that one.

I'm crazed? You're the one that doesn't like Step Brothers!

It's not like I'm alone in thinking it was a misfire...

Liked it: 96. Didn't like it: 78. That's a win for liked it! Will Ferrell is always going to divide opinion. You might love his next film and I might hate it.

Well, that's one way of looking at it. Another is to say it scored 55%. That may denote a high score to you but it's a D grade to me. Really, you're the first person I've met that likes that movie.

Funny enough, and I'm not just saying this, you're the first person I've met that doesn't like that movie. I noticed the 55%, but chose to ignore it as it was damaging to my argument that this movie is good.
:)

I agree, as another Ferrell fan, that Step Brothers was 80% cack. Which was more than a little dissapointing.

I've only seen one Ferrell film, Anchorman. Did quite enjoy it, but Steve Carrell totally stole it.

I LOVE LAMP!

*ahem*

I think we all love Lamp.

Yeah, it really grew on me. I was surprised to see that there were only 6 episodes. How un-American!

P.S. Boobies!

Yeah, I read an interview with McBride in which he was saying how he admires British comedies, the tightness of six episodes rather than twenty odd.

And how!

I still haven't seen this show yet due to my commitment to Scrubs, but it's next on my list.
