Whoopi

This is the funniest sitcom I've seen in years. They took some time in the writing and production, and the Persian (I'm not an Arab!) guy reminds me of the hilarious Alexei Sayles. This could be the breakout hit NBC needs to replace Friends and their million plus salaries. "Whoopi" will be American television's "Fawlty Towers". Good job all around.

Leave it to Whoopi to toss the "P.C." guidelines out the window. The show is refreshing and drop dead funny. At times the humor is in your face, just as life can be. Can it be offensive? I don't think so. It's just refreshing to see and hear someone say what is on everyone's mind at the time.

The show basically points out that you can't take life too seriously.

The characters are all folks that we can identify with and may even know in passing in everyday life. The cast blends and works well off of each other. The chemistry for this ensemble works.

So tune in and enjoy the show.

Americans might not find it funny, but for us Europeans, an American sitcom taking the Mickey out of George W. Bush junior. & Co. as well as the US's current and ongoing political paranoia toward anything remotely foreign or - if you prefer - alien is like manna sent from Heaven.

Whoopi's outspokenness and her hilarious one-liners directed at conservative America made me roar with laughter - even in the not particularly well dubbed German version. Whoopi's weird sense of humor might be perceived as outrageous or even un-American by Conservatives and/or Republicans, but from the perspective of Old Europe and a middle aged European, this brand of humor is exactly what America's media need to find their balance after years of kissing Dubya's feet.

Whoopi is surprisingly a very funny sitcom. Considering former big screen stars Television shows sucked (Bette, The Gena Davis Show). Whoopi actually has me laughing out loud every Tuesday night. Most of the comedy is based around ethnic houmour, but no one is safe, blacks, Arabs, whites, and Russians....but since everyone gets their turn at being picked on it isn't really offensive. Whoopi Goldburg does a good job as a grumpy hotel manager. And their is a great supporting cast as well. The Arab handyman is one of the funniest on the show along with Whoopi's brothers girlfriend who is a female version of eminem. Good show I give it an 8/10

This TV shwo is charming and very funny! Be sure to watch this every Tuesday at 7 on NBC.

Whoopi plays Mavis, a singer who retires after she made it big for a while. She then decided to re-open her hotels lounge. Whoopi's Persian/ Arabian friends is very funny and Rita, her daughter, is hilarious. She is white and she tries to act black. A great show!

Im very surprised that this is TV-14. This should be TV-PG DL.
