Britney Makes Unfunny Show Unfunnier
Brit makes her second appearance on "How I Met Your Mother" tonight -- and while her acting skills still leave a bit to be desired, her chest does its best to serve as a distraction.

92. That is REALLY dumb to use a flamer for that part.

93. It's not just Brittney that is unfunny, sitcoms lost their edge years ago and they are in pretty dire shape. You ever notice that on a sitcom every character sounds exactly the same and has the same one line, two lines, joke... one-two- joke paifully predictable pace. Writers, such on the terribly unfunny HIMMM writers make al the characters equally as funny (or unfunny) with the same timing. Even the kid actors on sitcoms have the same joke pacing. It's all crrrap folks. Bringing in Britney is obviously a ratings ploy. She is not very talented as an actress, but in the dumbing down of television network comedy it's almost hard to notice. I can tell you from the inside that they are shooting Brittney's scenes wihout an audience and they have a very hard time editing her performace to get anything that works. They were even feeding her lines to repeat from the acting coach. But with reality shows taking over television, we expect less and less. Whereas, classic television shows like: All In The Family can still be watched today. Two and a half Men is equally as unfunny as HIMMM and it's "America's" favorite comedy. Who the hell watches this rubbish? Network Execs are so busy getting jobs for their sons and daughters that they wouldn't know a good comedy writer if they burst out of their chest. (Now that would be funny). So, don't blame Brittney for talking a TV gig. She was hired by a network desperately seeking ratings -- not searching for someone with great comedy timing.

94. I think she did a real good job....on the small clip I saw....no matter how good or bad Britney is...she still brings in the ratings....and that is all the network really cares about.......so I think everyone should just relax and give her a break and let her enjoy herself and let her start feeling better about herself......and the real Britney will come forward and get down to business.......

95. 76. I hope that Britney has set up an airtight Trust Fund for her boy's college education - one that gold digging, lazy lout K-Fed can not get into or his money mooching lawyer Kaplan. It would be awful if they grew up like K-Dud - a 9th grade education, never a steady job, sponging off of women, marrying women for their money, fathering four children and never spending one dime on them - In other words, a real Deadbeat Lowlife. Those are cute little boys (thank God, they don't look like K-Dud) and I hope they don't grow up to be dirtbags like their father.

85. 74. PLEASE, TMZ, no more comments about Britney. She's on the road to recovery so leave her alone. If you insist on writing nasty news about people, write about the real deadbeat, money mooching, untalented morons in Hollywood like K-Fed and Denise Richards. Also, Heather Mills, Alec Baldwin, Star Jones, Rosie O'Donnell and Paris Hilton are all sleazy people we love to hate. Take a break from Britney. . . please.

Yeah bring up K-Dud or K-Fed or other famous people instead of Britney's acting skills.

Yeah right Maria way to go blame the other actors for Britney's poor acting skills.

97. Hey, I love that show. It's a great show. I think Britney's being on the show will really boost ratings. I can't wait to watch it.

98. Sucked major cajones! It's a wise thing this show is being canceled!
Posted at 5:04AM on May 13th 2008 by It SUCKED!!!
99. 13. Give her a break. She is just a kid. Let her grow, you guys

100. 44. Doesn't anyone here realize that she is SUPPOSED to be playing a ditz?? The acting will be bad...
Posted at 7:59PM on May 12th 2008 by hg
Oh Sure! That's some real acting there isn't it? A ditz playing a ditz....

101. 53. Yep, She's about as good an actress as she mother. She can't sing, dance or act........ what's she going to try next???
Well, let's see. She can't sing (without a studio full of electronics to make her "sound" good), She sure can't dance. She's repeatedly proving she can't act. The only thing she appears to have any talent at is getting pregnant. Guess that's a family thing.
So, taking all of that into account, I think we can look forward to seeing working the streets and hotels of Vegas any day now.

103. ''After 20 years in the business she has worked her way up to cameo rolls n a faltering sitcom. Kudos Britney...''
Yeah and only dominating the MTV awards for several years, being on of the best selling female artists ... nothing much

104. I thought she was funny... come on people it was a sitcom, not Shakespeare!

105. She did a fine job considering all that she's been though in the past couple of years. No thanks to the likes of TMZ and you other moronic a-holes on here for always ripping her down. Bite my azz and fug right off. God bless Britney. She's miles above you all!
