I can't believe anyone with any sense would make the decision to air this utter nonsense. It's particularly mind blowing that it's allowed to displace a winner like Corner Gas. Corner Gas has now moved to a seriously off-prime-time slot. Please tell me this was a failed experiment, apologize to your viewers and get the Bob & Tom insanity off the air. I understand the financial attraction of airing a production that requires no writing talent and attending costs, but it contains no other talent either.

I can't believe anyone who watches such boring sounding shows like "corner gas" would even have enough personality to own a computer and know how to get on the Internet. But then again, it makes sense....that they would, in order to complain about one of the most funniest radio shows in history. A show that is so original, never gets old, constantly features famous stars, muscians, as well as some of the most talented up-rising comedians today, while maintaining the ability to continually come up with unique, clever, humorous commercials, skits, and mock interviews, that's not only ingenious and hilarious, but also manages to do all this while incorporating current events, news and the latest celebrities scandals that leave you in tears! So I can see the nerd who wouldn't like it. It's a great way to start your day!!!!

Bob and Tom sukk, bottom line, although the comics they do have on are worth the crap ya have to wade thru to hear them, I get soo pissed with the constant Forced Laugh from the rest of the crew while what ever is being played or a comic is saying, if its funny thats one thing, but the constant annoyance of their forced laughs over whatever so called Skit they are playing is what kills me, makes me think they do that sh** just to try and convey to the audience what is funny.
FAIL.
