Summary

Starring Steve Byrne, Ben Gleib, Desi Lydic, Catherine Reitman, and Gareth Reynolds

The New York TimesAlessandra Stanley

A little of this kind of excitement goes a long way. One crashed wedding can be entertaining, but a steady stream could wear thin.

VarietyBrian Lowry

Watching the show brings to mind attending the wedding of someone you barely know or don't really like: Sure, it would be better if everything went well, but after awhile, all you really want is for it to be over so you can get out of there.

Pittsburgh Post-GazetteRob Owen

A show that's more boring than funny, an investment of entertainment time that's not worth making.

Los Angeles TimesPaul Brownfield

Their team of comedy actors has some spunk and talent, but the show more closely resembles a commercial for mystery dinner theater, complete with testimonials by real audience members about how fun it all was in the end.

New York Daily NewsDavid Hinckley

If, years later, you're still trying to wash away the foul taste of Fox's "My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance," the idea of putting family members and friends through emotional anguish for the sake of prime-time entertainment isn't any funnier than it sounds.

People WeeklyTom Gliatto

Apart from the fact that the gags aren't funny... it's off-putting to see something sacred being mucked around with. [30 Apr 2007, p.37]

Boston GlobeMatthew Gilbert

OK, so is "The Real Wedding Crashers" juvenile, disappointing, disastrous, hollow, devoid, desperate, or disingenuous? Let's just say the show is "bad," plain and simple, and leave it at that.

New York PostLinda Stasi

"The Real Wedding Crashers" is about as much fun as going to your Uncle Fred's fifth wedding to a fat phone sex operator. In other words, a wedding you don't have to attend.

Very dragging...not interesting

Maura H gave it a0:
What a waste of an hour of TV. I'd rather be staring at a blank screen! Bring back The Black Donnelly's--how can NBC cancel that and replace w/ this garbage??

Jen S gave it a1:
Few funny parts..and can you say "CHEESY?"

Gabby J gave it a9:
If I ever get married again, I will be doing this. I found it hillarious!!

Josh B gave it a0:
Please don't watch this show. Awful.

Anthony B gave it a0:
Not funny

critic gave it a1:
I vote a "1," only because one guy was kind of funny in his role. But the whole show is so cheesy...all I could yell out at the end was, "LAME-O!" They build it up with all kinds of things and then...the only thing that crashes is the lame attempt to make the show entertaining.
