ejbulman Review of Mind of Mencia

Mind of Mencia (2005–2008)

Why is this show rated so low? Too many "dee-dee-dees" have computer access..........

I don't see why many people think that this show is unfunny and/or an inferior fill-in for the departed Chapelle show. Chapelle had his way of attacking current American culture. Mencia's is different, and, perhaps, dare I suggest it, even more effective when regarding certain issues. His take on the dumbing down of America, eroding of standards, and generally stupid people are dead on. No one else has the balls to pursue these subjects as accurately as he does. Granted, some skits are uncomfortably crude (i.e, "Butt Pirates of the Caribbean") or odd (the character "The Ghost of Johnny Cochrane"), but most of them are entertaining. Some are even insightful. To his detractors I say, "Go fark yourselves!". If you don't get that line, you missed one of his best skits.
