Hoy! Hoy!     Features: DVD, Dolby Digital (5.1)   Hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla take an unapologetic look at the mind, body and soul of the modern man in The Man Show Season One, Volume One DVD boxed set. Join in their chauvinistic celebration of all things male with these twelve clasic episodes -- a must-have for men everywhere who love watching girls jump on trampolines.   Editor's Note Co-hosts Jimmy Kimmell and Adam Carolla offer a tongue-in-cheek glimpse into the masculine psyche in Comedy Central's testosterone-laden THE MAN SHOW. The androcentric series both celebrates and parodies all things male with politically-incorrect humor, skits, and talk-show-style discussions based on fart jokes, beer guzzling, and scantily-clad women bouncing on trampolines--all the while tempering its male-bonding stereotypes with a healthy dose of self-mockery. This collection presents the first half of Season One.   Features Audio: English Dolby Digital Stereo Karl Malone on...Investing, taxes and recycling. "Angelique's Audition" - What do the Juggies have to do to get hired? "Girls On Trampolines" - sun dresses, the beach. 10 minutes of what men love.

I expected this DVD to be un-edited. It is after all called the "MAN" show. As a man I expect that I am capable of protecting my self from anything I would find offensive. The man show thrives on the nature of a man; raising cain and naked women. The show is on late at night for a reason, it's for adults not teens, but since the target of the DVD sales was probably aimed at the teens there is a solution that would not have offended the MEN, who enjoy the show. Release it in both TV14 rated and unrated versions. Censorship for adults is insulting to our society.

If you are looking to get this box set to see the uncensored version of the Man Show without the pixelation, you will be sadly disappointed when the shows end up being exactly the same as the shows on Comedy Central. If you just like The Man Show, this box set is the exact same as what was on TV except for the 1:30 Juggie audition, 5+ minute "Girls jumping on trampolines", the Monkey bar and other useless "bonus materials".

I pre-ordered the "First Season Man Show" DVD set and anxiously awaited its arrival, hoping that all those "censored scenes" shown when aired on Comedy Central would be shown as recorded - BOY WAS I A FOOL! Each episode plays exactly as aired, so those silly "mosaic tiles" will be blocking any exposed body parts on the DVD as well. So fans, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY like I did, you get to see more breasts on a regular PBS broadcast. Jimmy, Adam, you let me down and I will NOT be looking forward to season 2 or 3.
