You know, I usually like Rosie O'Donnell, she's pretty funny, a little out spoken but that's a pleasant change in these days of political correctness, but this show was the worst thing I have seen in a long time. Firstly, Rosie wearing all black and that hideous lipstick was not attractive at all, then there was the back to the fifties (1950's!) style of presenting the guests and the Carol Burnett-esquire skits in between which didn't work at all. Then Harry Connick popped in for what literally must have been 30 seconds, and he didn't seem comfortable either. None of the guests was presented in a particularly good way to be honest, and the whole burlesque routine by Jane Krakowski was just another big "what the..?" moment in my house.
To be totally honest I think this kind of variety show on TV has gone the way of the Dodo, although it might possibly work as a stage show, but even then I think we have progressed too far for this kind of schtick.
I hope this has been canceled because we TV viewers really do deserve better and some good shows have gotten the ax this year, even though they have had a lot of critical acclaim.
The style opf this show, the presenting, even the guests, just didn't gel together cohesively at all. I'd rather watch re-runs!
