Jim McCord should be fired for renewing unfunny Bobby contract. Jay needs a reality check since he thinks Bobby is the funniest person he knows.. the producers should be ashamed of themselves for not fixing this show since that is their job. Don’t understand why everyone is afraid to go against Jay’s ideas. The only time I agree with pill popping Cristin is when she told jay “you don’t have a producer bone in your body” nothing original comes out of this man’s porn filled head.

(I will find it on Reddit for FREE now that you’re playing games.) This was a ploy to get people to sign up for ... more
Maybe it’s just not for me, but it has not been funny even once.
