This new show called "Marvin Marvin" might be just about the one of the most stupid shows I have ever seen. And trust me, I have seen plentiful stupid shows.
It starts Lucas Cruikshank, best known as "Fred". I knew I expected stupidity when I heard it was staring him, but this was just beyond...anything.
I turned on the television and the Pilot was on, and I watched about 10 minutes before turning it off. Here is what I caught (although I may be wrong, since I did not waste my time searching for any background info): Marvin, the main character, is apparently an alien in human form (I think?) with a real family. He decides that he will try a day at the high school where his sister (?) is attending, and then realizes he loves it. His sister warns him to stay away from her, because she does not wish to be at all associated with him (and who can blame her?). At one point in class, he began dancing on a desk to some "tunes" from some dude's cell phone. Also, when put in a situation where he was forced to make up a last name (don't ask), the best he could come up with was "Marvin". His first name.
Let me begin real review by saying that I very much dislike Lucas Cruikshank as an actor. I hate his character Fred, who might be one of the most annoying things ever to hit television, and his character Marvin Marvin. He has almost no talent at all, in my opinion, and relies completely on voice manipulations and loud, obnoxious talking to entertain his audience. Which he fails to do anyway.
This show, from what I saw, will prove to be one of Nickelodeon's biggest failures. The acting is terrible, the characters are terrible, the storyline is terrible, the whole show is terrible.
I will not be watching this show EVER again, and I would advise you all to spare yourselves the agony as well.
