Missed the boat again

Rob Schneider married for the third time, a much younger Mexican woman. Based on his real life marriage he has produced a television series called Rob


I have to say they missed the boat again. Once again the attractive Mexican woman is played by a Spaniard. Only the derelict uncle is actually from Mexico. Lupe Ontiveros, an excellent actress gets the stupid role once again, playing the non-English speaking mother of Cheech Marin (who is almost her age).

Pretty predictable one-liners follow about immigration, guacamole, along with references to Julio Iglesias and Sangria (both of which are Spanish, not Mexican). The Mexican actor at one point asks the gringo for his Sangria recipe (which was one of the funnier lines in the show).

They did it better in the 1950's.

so what's the over/under on how long before it is cancelled ?

i think that depends which network this is on.

Paco, they put Rob Schneider in a show. They missed the boat right there :)

The reviews were horrible and yet it destroyed "Parks and Rec", a really smart show, by about 3 to 1. The hope that it would be a failure and we wouldn't have to be subjected to it again has faded. It's clearly going to stay a little while. Personally I think all of the numbers came from the lead-in (BBT), but they won't look at it that way.

Reading the subject line, I thought this was going to be a happy story about how the OP didn't get to the Costa Concordia on time for boarding.

And this is his TV character's wife. In real life he is a very wealthy man, but on the TV series he is just a short middle aged obsessively compulsive unsophisticated dork (the character he plays in every movie). His beautiful wife is so smitten by him that she goes to Vegas to marry him after 6 weeks.


The marriage in Modern Family is at least made slightly believable by the mother's obsession with providing a stable home for her young son.

LOL to the last part, actually that's what I thought too...

Parks and Recreation is one of the best, if not THE best comedy on TV right now. Modern Family is good, but P&R is smart and follows a few plot lines, as opposed to MF which is all over the place every week. I would never watch !Rob!, both because its on CBS and because Rob Schneider is one of the least funny men (next to Will Ferrell and Ben Stiller) on the planet.

3:2 BJ, S17, RSA, Surrender are all great rules on BJ. You can find these rules at many casinos outside Vegas. Even in Vegas, you can find better rules at MGM casinos and the offstrip places. The Caesars Party Pits are pathetic at best, with 6:5 BJ and rules that will make you cry.

!Rob! is 6:5 BJ. Give the people what they want (cheap laughs), and nothing else matters.
