Info

Blue Collar TV is a television program that aired on The WB Television Network with lead actors Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall and Larry the Cable Guy. The show's humor dealt principally with contemporary American society, and especially hillbilly, redneck, and Southern stereotypes. The show was greenlighted on the heels of the success of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, which the series' three lead actors toured with in the early-mid-2000s. It was created by Fax Bahr and Adam Small, in addition to J.P. Williams and Jeff Foxworthy. Blue collar is a US phrase used to describe manual laborers, as opposed to white collar for office or professional workers. Fellow Blue Collar Comedy Tour costar Ron White declined to star on Blue Collar TV due to a fear of being typecast as "blue collar." However, he guest-starred on many episodes of the show. On his 2006 comedy album, You Can't Fix Stupid, White jokingly cited his own lack of work ethic as a reason for not participating more on the show. Unlike most sketch comedy programs, each episode of Blue Collar TV was generally centered around a theme, which Foxworthy revealed at the start of each episode. Themes included "Food", "Kids", and "Stupidity", among others, with Foxworthy generally performing a short comedic monologue based on the theme. Most sketches in each episode featured at least one of the three Blue Collar Comedy Tour veterans in an acting role, but the second season saw more sketches featuring the 6 other cast members exclusively.

Diagonaldi Very well executed
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
ConVito This goes out to all of you complaining about Blue Collar TV. Shut up and just don't watch it, it's not like anyone's forcing you to watch it. The show was made with fans of Jeff, Larry, and Bill in mind. I also like all of Larry's movies as well, because I'm a fan.The comedy in BCTV was exactly what I expected from these 3 (sometimes 4, when Ron White would guest star). I enjoyed Larry's rants about political correctness which were inspired directly by his own stand-up, of which I am a big fan. For some reason, Bill played women a lot in the skits. I don't know where it came from, but he was hilarious. Bill's also my all time favorite comedian. Jeff would always play off his "redneck" persona, doing things like the Redneck Yard of the Week. That's what I expect from Jeff because it's the kind of stuff he did and does in stand-up, and I wasn't disappointed. Then of course, whenever Ron was on, he'd pretty much always be drinking, as to be expected. Then, my favorite part of the show was the end when the guys all got together and did something funny such as told jokes or did the whole "I believe..." routine. Again, that was taken directly from the Blue Collar Comedy Tour.Most of the people complaining about this are people who aren't fans of the original BC Comedy Tour, or haven't even heard of it or the comedians. So I'll say this. If you haven't seen the comedy tour or seen Bill, Jeff, Larry, and/or Ron then just don't even bother with this because it wasn't made for you. It was made for fans, and I'm a fan, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Again, if you don't like it, then don't watch it and shut up.
Randy Coates Blue Collar TV is so shamefully pathetic, I am actually insulted. How could anyone put this on our TV's and actually expect us to like it? At all? On any level? This is one of those rare shows that is so completely terrible, it's not even funny to laugh AT it. I'm not an elitist jerk who hates the whole "redneck comedy" fad that's been going on for the last ten years or so. I like Ron White and Jeff Foxworthy. I don't mind Bill Engvall. I do hate Larry the Cable Racist but then again, who with half a brain doesn't? But this show has nothing going for it the way their stand-up specials and albums usually do. This show is a series of pathetic sketches and stand-up riffs that the average high school student (in Alabama or not) would be embarrassed to perform in front of their class - so how can these already rich and famous "comedians" justify performing this schlock on NATIONAL TV???
Jack Treese When I first saw Blue Collar Comedy Tour, I found it to be quite possibly the funniest film ever. It still is.When I heard about this show, I expected it to be nothing more than skits revolving around the jokes the guys made in BCCT... I was right, and then some!This is indeed a rednecked SNL/MadTV, and I couldn't have it any other way. From sketches including Rescue 911 to The REAL Bachelor, I can never really stop laughing when I watch this show.My friends feel that this show sold out the Blue Collar Comedy guys quicker than Metallica. I disagree. If anything, this show glorified how much redneck humor rules.If you haven't watched Blue Collar TV, I recommend you do. I'm definitely buying Season One when the DVD is released.10/10
sonicdescent ....as the least funny show on television, this snoozer gets a green light. I had more laughs watching Schindler's list.Full disclosure, I need subtitles on to understand the cable guy, never really found Foxworthy to be funny, and have no idea who the third guy is. This humor isn't for me, but with a title like Blue Collar TV, I had hoped that they were going for a wider audience than their previous efforts.Folks, where is the justice when a brilliant show like Twin Peaks bites the bullet after 2 seasons, yet bile like this lines the TV guide?
