I think you could find your answer if you also answer the question "Why did people like Andy Dick or Tom Green... hell, Jersey Shore?"

[BroncoWave]

I'm with you, I can't stand her. She's like the female version of Jack Black.

[BroncoNut]

Melissa McCarthy?

[Valar Morghulis]

Loved her in spy

[BroncoNut]

Melissa McCarthy?

oh, nevermind, I just saw the Melissa. I think she's talented. she'll get old like everyone else, but she's a hilarious physical comedian

[slim]

She's the fat chick, right?

Or is this someone else?

that's racist

[slim]

that's racist

It's no Gap poster, but yeah....

[MOtorboat]

Don't think she's that funny. I've seen a couple of movies and they're pretty awful.

[MileHighCrew]

Can't stand her at all.

[Dapper Dan]

I've only seen her in one or two movies and she was funny. I think she was on SNL too.

[chazoe60]

I think she's funny. She was awesome in Spy and Bridesmaids.

[DenBronx]

I don't know but I think she's pretty funny at times. She's sorta like the female version of a John Candy and Chris Farley mix. Some of her movies are a big fat swing and a miss though, with an emphasis on fat.

[olathebroncofan]

I've liked her ever since Gilmore Girls.

[Bronco4ever]

I thought she was pretty funny in Bridesmaids. A few of her other movies were kinda meh to me. Not a huge fan, but she must have a big enough fan base to keep doing what she's doing, so good for her.

[Dapper Dan]

I think she's funny. She was awesome in Spy and Bridesmaids.

I forgot about Bridesmaids. I saw her in Heat and Tammy.

[OrangeHoof]

She was pretty hot in that nude Playboy layout.

Oh, wait. That was Jenny McCarthy.

[Valar Morghulis]

I forgot about Bridesmaids. I saw her in Heat and Tammy.

I like heat but thought Tammy should have got Hollywood shut down

[SoCalImport]

She's really funny but Hollywood is stretching that funny pretty thin.

[Dapper Dan]

I like heat but thought Tammy should have got Hollywood shut down

I think I just liked Tammy because I liked the part where she was in Kentucky and it had Kentucky State Police chasing her.

[EastCoastBronco]

I put her in the same category as Will Ferell.
She does the same thing over and over and over.
If you dig what she does, you're in business.
I can't stand either of them...;-)

[Northman]

I don't know but I think she's pretty funny at times. She's sorta like the female version of a John Candy and Chris Farley mix. Some of her movies are a big fat swing and a miss though, with an emphasis on fat.

Basically. She stole the show in Bridesmaids but has been "meh" in other stuff i have seen her in.

[BroncoJoe]

Identity Thief was descent.

[CoachChaz]

Mike & Molly isnt a bad show, either

[Tned]

I like her in Mike and Molly, and think she is a good actress, but I think in a lot of the movies, the slap stick or over the top comedy is just plain stupid.

I just think they try to go to the well one too many times with her.

Happens with pretty much everyone that has comedic talent. Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart are prime examples.

Agreed and its highly annoying.

*Her cousin.

Seriously. I don't see the familial resemblance.

...I'm not gonna say it. This isn't the lounge. :lol:
