Dreadfully Boring
Teddie Blake
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

OK, it was not named his ecology show, I don't recall the name of the TV Show. If I recall correctly he uses a sailboat as a prop and he states (all to prophetically) that we are poisoning our oceans among all the other havoc corporations and people are doing to destroy our earth and is more or less pleading with people to stop and think. This show was done prior to the current ecological awareness. I can't help but recall that particular statement now that we are at day 56 of BP's negligence and the horror that is happening in the Gulf of Mexico. I would like to see it again but haven't a clue, after much on-line searching, just where I might find it. Any help out there would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I forgot just how much damn FUN Gallagher was. I just watched The Maddest for the first time in almost 15 years and it's just as funny as it ever was - and by that I mean it's OUTSTANDING. Intelligent comedy, fun FUN use of props, and of course the famous Sledge-O-Matic as the grand finale...Gallagher used to put on some damn good shows. Too bad no one remembers him for that. Here's hoping the release of his best material (finally) on DVD will help change that view - he really was/is a great comedian."I'm not gonna talk to you people for an hour and a half and then close my show... with a mass of stupidity..."

Now relegated to a semi-obscure 80s reference for snarky gen-Zers, Gallagher seems to be remembered only for the messy slapstick 'Sledge-o-Matic', used as an ironic closer to his show. The only image most of the younger crowd has of Gallagher is a man smashing watermelons with a hammer. His insightful and intelligent comedy has been overshadowed by a running gag that was as much of a joke to him as it was to the audience.

In one of his earlier stand-up videos, Gallagher solidifies himself as one of the funniest and zaniest comedians in the world. His genius use of props as well as his trade-mark of smashing miscellaneous produce in front of the crowd with his Sledge-O-Matic (`...it is not a slicer, it is not a dicer, it is not a chopper or a hopper. What in the hell could it possibly be?!') have set him apart from other comedy acts. This is stand up comedy of the highest quality. He is not just up there making sick jokes, he analyzes the world and makes fun of the stupid stuff, like the locks on the doors at the 7-11 that's open 24 hours a day. He makes fun of commercials, school, the government, people in relationships, banks, pretty much everything that can be frustrating in real life. You've used that bathroom cleaner to clean off mildew that says to only use it in a well-ventilated area right? Gallagher says, `If it was well-ventilated there wouldn't be mildew on it!' This guy is a genius, not only is he endlessly hilarious, he also has a very active mind that makes things funny in ways that you wouldn't have ever thought of. His comedy is surprising, it's intelligent, it makes you think, and above all, it makes you grab your sides as you fall into almost painful hysterics. Go out and look for his videos, you won't regret it.
