SusanM.Jan 10, 200910I watched the TV show last night and it said to post your tricks but i am not seeing where to tell our tricks we have done?where can we send the jokes that we have played on some one?

ElrodGJan 14, 20090Did I miss something? where was the funny part? Howie was funny when he first came to light back in the late '80's -- - but this show was sad. I bet it won't last a season.

MarkRJan 24, 20096Felt it my duty to watch this for Howie's sake. So I call it my "Howie Duty Show". For every 5 or 6 segments shown in an hour, I feel 1 or 2 are downright hilarious. The rest are kind of weak.

roserJan 30, 20091I love Howie, but this show is his WORST... give it up, Howie, it is just NOT funny. It looks like a genre that has been overused. You can do better than this.

JaeCFeb 6, 20090Pathetic excuse for entertainment. Paying people to get them to make fools of themselves is sad. As the economy gets worse I expect so will this show.

dennissJul 27, 20090WoW!!, i cannot believe that some of the people posting here actually liked this piece of garbage. Incredible what the American TV viewer has become. This show is alongside "I'm a Celebrity" for worst TV show in recent history.

EdNJan 30, 20090This is got to be one of the dumbest shows that is out. Who ever writes these pranks needs to be fired. Howie is not funny and it is pathetic to hear this is howie do it every other minute. I would rather watch commercials.

EJMar 9, 20097I find myself laughing out loud at least once an episode. It's clean fun for family viewing...which is hard to find on TV these days.

TerryW.Jan 10, 20090Awful, meanspirited, and worst of all for an alleged comedy show, not funny.

DanielL.Jan 17, 20090I watched this show last night and it was NOT FUNNY at all.. It could be a good show but they do not plan out the stunts.. and they just throw it all together.. HORRIBLE SHOW. I used my DVR to tape two half hour segments and I could not watch the 2nd half hour.. What a waste.

ChrisCJan 27, 20098The first hour shown of the show was terrible. However a very funny thing happened. The show became MUCH funnier in the shows aired since then. I think the early critics should give it another shot. It's actually funny now.

JimPFeb 6, 20090Howie is not funny. That is why his career died. He was very fortunate to be resuscitated with Deal. This show is dull as dirt.

CarolCJun 6, 200910This was one of the funniest show I have seen in a long time. I could not wait for Friday to come so I could watch it again, but alas, it was not on last week.

stevep.Jan 11, 20099Funny Stuff, very light on ideas, but is ment to fill an hour and get some laughs.

SylviaSylviaJan 13, 200910I don't understand the critics above. This show is so freaking hilarious I nearly broke the leg on the chair I was sitting in, I was laughing so hard. Don't forget folks: all of these "marks" have given their permission to have their humiliation aired on national TV. We're in a tough time in this country... we need to lighten up. This show is HILARIOUS!

DakotahJ.Jan 21, 20090I knew not to expect much from the show for some reason,but it might be literally the worst show i've ever seen...the jokes aren't close to funny.I mean c'mon the opening joke was just howie spraying guys in the face with water,and the format?..record gags and show them to a live studio audience on a huge tv,what kind of format is that?...
-
-
RickMJan 26, 20090Viewers should be paid to watch this show. A total waste of time.

ChrisEFeb 13, 20090Not even funny, wasted time i will never get back in my life... Its supid.

JeffFMar 27, 20091I hate this show, it is pathetic beyond belief. It's not funny at all, I can't figure out what the audience thinks is so funny, maybe they are watching something else?! And what's up with the drummer dude, I still can't figure that out! Also, I am getting tired of Howie and his stupid fist bump routine.

20It's sad, really, how unimaginative Howie Do It is. Given all the resources at NBC's disposal, and given the fact that NBC is desperate to regain ratings footing, this is the best the executives could come up with?
-
Turns out they do it [prank shows] pretty much the same as everyone else. But the sight of a bewigged Mandel blasting TV weathermen wannabes with water is pretty funny stuff.

60There have been far nastier hidden-camera efforts than this. Better ones, too. Yet to be sure, in the opening hour, Howie Do It at least delivers laughs more often than it inspires groans.
