Starring Dane Cook, Gary Gulman, Jay Davis, and Robert Kelly

This tour documentary follows comedian Dane Cook (best known for his "Retaliation" CD) on the road in his tour bus with three other stand-ups. If you watched "Comedians Of Comedy," you've seen this sort of thing before.

GENRE(S):	Comedy, Documentary
FIRST AIR DATE:	June 11, 2006

Chicago Tribune Allison Benedikt

It's a rip-off of an earlier (and better) road trip series, Comedy Central's "The Comedians of Comedy," but worthwhile nonetheless.

Chicago Sun-Times Doug Elfman

The show's weakness is that not a lot of interesting or funny stuff happens on the bus or in their touring cities.

Entertainment Weekly Tim Stack

The whole thing feels like a[n] unfortunate twist on Comic Relief--charity for the comedians. [9 Jun 2006, p.133]

Los Angeles Times Paul Brownfield

It's "Entourage" on the cheap, without the fun stuff.

Washington Post Tom Shales

If the prospect of accompanying comedians on a comedy bus does have a certain allure, don't get too excited.

Boston Globe Matthew Gilbert

Too much like a dull season of MTV's "Road Rules," without the women.

Slant Magazine Paul Schrodt

May be the most pointless series HBO has ever produced.

Variety Brian Lowry

A half-hour vanity project that proves HBO can not only be TV, but bad TV at that.

Hollywood Reporter Ray Richmond

[It] panders in a fashion that's akin to a neon sign flashing, "Yoo hoo! Young demographics! Over here!"

Dane Cook and the word "comedian" should never be used together.

Pete G gave it a0:
What exec's couch and how many gross sexual favors has Dane Cook had to do to keep his 'career' goiong? He is an absolute disgrace to real comedians anywhere.

Brian D gave it a0:
Simply put: A train wreck. Avoid this wasted opportunity at all costs.

Joe j gave it a1:
Dane Cook . . . funny? Not!!! What a bunch of manufactured bullshit.

Raisa J gave it a0:
I couldn't believe Dane Cook was a real comedian. I thought this was some sort of made up gag with a guy pretending to be a celebrity. This was awful and it is just not funny. ugh! I still shudder thinking about the few minutes I stared at the screen in disbelief while this mess was on . A real train wreck.
