Listen up, big guy...
...if you can't get excited about your new show, we can't either.
"The Showbiz Show with David Spade" reinforces what's always galled me about this guy: he's the kind of comic who, instead of taking a risk and trying to sell an actual joke that may be funny or may fail, will tell a tired one, but in an over-it, weary way that says "I am cooler than comedy itself. Let's you and I sneer at this weak custom of making an effort."
It was sorta-kinda-almost funny in 1991, when we were just meeting this fellow and we thought he had some other snacks in his lunchbox; it is completely enervating and sad in 2005, when we know he doesn't.
Dude. Quit having shows if you hate it so much.

Amen! Why doesn't Spade stick to what he is most interested in: banging hot chicks that wouldn't give him the time of day if he wasn't on TV.

I doubt he even bangs hot chicks. I'll bet he cries instead. Hey David, Judy Tenuta called. She wants half her schtick back.
If only I could revoke his native Michigander card..
