Not sure if I should be surprised that the latest addition to "Animation Domination" sucks more than anything that it has thus far released. Greg the Bunny, please come back!Sit Down, Shut Up is set within the halls of a school and revolves around the lives of the faculty who run it - or attempt to, anyway. Within the walls of the school is a masculine boy-hungry librarian, a effeminate bisexual theatre teacher, a bumbling couch who's in love with a holier-than-though, moron Christian stereotype (is she a teacher?) Miracle...I think you get the point.
The show won't be on long. And if it is, then I'm going to have to start questioning the intelligence of those who kept it on. It's insulting to our intelligence that Fox would think to even green light the school. The pilot alone is everywhere, introducing each character and their "catch phrase," instilling their stereotype and characteristics, giving a crumbling premise. It makes me wonder if Fox is using this show as a replacement for King of the Hill, whose cancellation was announced last Fall.
Animation Domination, which lineup includes The Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad, is expected to gain another show this Fall, a spin off of Family Guy - The Cleveland Show. I'm wary that Fox might be losing its touch, however the success of the latter two just might prove that a third just might be as funny. I just wonder what will replace Sit Down, Shut Up when Fox finally comes to its senses and axes it.
Stumble It!
