Viva la Bam

This is by far one of the funniest shows on MTV. I kept my attention alot more than Jackass did. This is ten times better than Jackass was. Its the best part of Jackass put into its own show. This show is the BEST!

When Viva La Bam premiered on MTV, I was quite excited about it. It was a funny and inventive show with unique concept. And I liked Bam, his parents and his friends as characters. The first season was strong overall, but it already hinted at the problem the show has: It's just very repetitive. There are only so many things you can do with this kind of reality concept, and it doesn't hold your attention anymore, once you've seen several episodes.

When the show started, I was puzzled about whether the show was "acted" or if it was all for real. I think it's obvious by now that Viva La Bam is indeed a scripted and acted show. Reactions often seem forced, and the more you watch the show, the easier it is to see all the seams.

All in all it's a pretty good show, but I can't get excited about it anymore. It's too repetitive, and has very little replay value. Hopefully Bam will move on the other things soon, because Viva La Bam is getting a bit stale.

In "Viva La Bam", we get to see Bam Margera pull pranks on his dad for a half-hour. And surprisingly, you can't stop watching it. The first episode consists of Bam ironing pictures of hamburgers onto all of his dads clothes, building a firpole in his home in the middle of the night, and turning his house into a skate park. It's the way Bam does these things, it's almost like he feels there can be nothing more productive than what he's doing, that makes the show so entertaining. That side, it's one of the funniest shows I've seen all summer, and I hope they put out a DVD.

Viva La Bam beats Jackass and Wildboyz with a stick! It is simply just something like you've never seen before. Bam is of course rich from being a pro-skater and a Jackass star but this is the best yet.

Bam is simply a genious when it comes to crazy ideas, with is house and torturing his parents, over the first series we've seen Skateboards, Firepoles, Rock shows, Buldozers, Axes, Gambling, Fat people, cars, Reunions, Half-pipes, Scavenger hunts, Mail-order brides, Draw-bridges, Destruction, Elephants, Don Vito, Abandonment, Bees, The Bloodhound Gang , 30 ft. Tunnels, Screams, Laughter and Compton ass Terry! And that's just the first series!!!

If you catch Viva La Bam on the tube I would seriously suggest watching it, I personnaly think that there has not been a bad episode, but be warned when the show starts it is pretty difficult to change the channel.

In closing, Viva La Bam I now consider one of the funnest shown on all television, It's gonna be a real shame if this gets taken off the air, so enjoy it while it lasts!

When I seen MTV airing promos for this show during the VMA'S I was excited and could hardly wait for the show to start.I have been a fan of Bam's since watching Jackass.He just started to really drive his mom crazy since the Jackass movie but has always picked on his dad.I love to watch him fight his dad and if you want want to see even more of his fights with his dad check out the CKY videos.They also have alot of the types of the things you would see on Jackass.
