Critic Reviews

  1. There are people in this world who find flatulence mightily entertaining, and they should be happy here.

    The two-zany formula still works for movie after movie, and the occasional TV show. Case in point: Tonight's Testees, airing on the risk-happy FX network; the comedy doesn't push boundaries so much as trounce and trash them.

EveryThis show was clever, very clever, it made the sort of cringing humor that I normally despise, work... And boy they made it work well! Every episode took the show to new levels of depravity and stupidity and I loved it. Jelly bean omlettes was a classic. I still and cringe when I think about it. Steve Markle deserved an Oscar for doing that one scene. Superb. Full Review »

In that respect, Testees ticks all the right boxes. Full Review »
