Jesus tittyfucking Christ.
Who is the executive that decided to give Frank Caliendo a show on TV? What pantload decided to give this dude a show? I'm not saying that the guy isn't funny, I'm not saying that every impression sucks. I'm just saying that this guy was kinda funny on MAD TV, and you don't give a guy a show because he does a good Madden impersonation. And lets be honest, that's about the only good impression that he does. His George Bush sucks, because well, Bush isn't fat, and is easily impersonated, all you have to do is squint a lot, over-pronunciate stupid words.. And voila, you're Bush. His Pacino isn't even Pacino, its Pacino doing Lt. Vincent Hanna in the movie HEAT. His Deniro is the Deniro from Meet the Parents, his Bill Clinton sucks, his impression of Charles Barkley while somewhat funny doesn't warrant the barrage of times I see him on a nightly basis.
My bitch is this. This guy is fringe, and doesn't deserve the exposure that he has much less a fucking TV show. He belongs on MAD TV, and NFL pregame shows, and Letterman, Leno and Carson fucking Daly. He's funny enough to do those shows. He is not funny enough to have his OWN TV show.
You cannot build a TV show around some dude that has a good impression of John Madden. You cannot build a show around a guy that is a one trick pony. TBS is sub-moronic for not only giving him a show, but also making me watch a commercial of the show every 15 fucking minutes. I can't take it. Stop it. Stop grasping at straws TBS. And Frank, your good, I honestly like you, but because TBS gives you an ill-advised TV show doesn't make you better, it will in fact cause your demise. The viewing public is going to despise you for it and ultimately not watch you at all. 5 years from now your going to be working at some comedy club in pigsknuckle Arkansas because you couldn't live with just doing what you were good at and being a bit part impressionist on some sketch comedy show.
While you aren't the definition of the Peter Principle, you are certainly stretching the limits of your capabilities.

I find it interesting that you post a rant about TBS and Frank TV the day after you watched your beloved cubbies lose game 1 of the NLDS on TBS. Could it be that your agression is misdirected?
Those are two completely separate issues. I was hating on Frank TV last year in the playoffs, and even during the fucking White Sox and Twinkies game the other night. (I know you don't watch the Frank TV commercials because your team hasn't been in the playoffs since Frank TV has been on the air. zing....)
I don't have aggression with the Cubs, I have frustration. I spew vitriolic hatred on the interwebs about Frank TV because its a stupid fucking idea for a show, and they keep on promoting the show every fucking commercial break. I have the same venom when it comes to other stupid commercials, like people sitting in bathtubs on the shores of shangri-la after popping a Cialis pill. Or a fucking E-harmony commercial with thier 22 levels of compatability. Or those stupid drug commercials where the guy has an enlarged prostate and can't stop going to the bathroom,,,,,and oh yeah, he has a fucking job as a model maker, or some other crazy profession that forces him to shrink objects down to below normal size!!!
I hate all of those commercials. And now I hate you.
