Raising Hope For "Raising Hope"

If you haven't seen the show "Raising Hope", then you're missing out. It's hilarious! Some of these other shows are getting old, especially sitcoms. You can tell that they're trying to hard to make people laugh, because they have the live audience in front of them. I like the shows that don't have to try and be funny, they just are. Raising Hope is exactly that and totally reminds me of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which is the best show on television by the way.

That 70's show was one of those rarities that had a live studio audience but the characters were still really good and seemed like they weren't trying. Although, I saw a live taping of that show and it almost ruined it for me. When you see the same take ten or twelve times and there's a sign telling you to laugh each time, you start to go a little crazy. I thought I wouldn't be able to watch the show any more because I would just sit there and think "I wonder how many takes it took to get the laughs they wanted". But surprisingly, I still can enjoy me some 70's goodness.

Anyway, check out Raising Hope and I promise it won't disappoint. If you watch the first episode and don't believe me, just know that it gets better and better. You'll find yourself quoting it and being like: "That show is genius!"
