Review of Go Fish

Go Fish (2001)
gone fishin'...

this show is nbc's lowbrow attempt to hit the teen through 24 year old demographic. it exagerates the awkwardness of teen life to a point of utter embarrassment ( not just the characters, the audience too). however, i find myself drawn to it. i can relate with some of the issues and some it is actually funny. it shouldn't be funny, but it's kind of true, so it is did that make sense?). i'm going to keep watching this show. i'd be *very* surprised if it wormed it's way into the fall lineup,but not disappointed.

"go fish" is about high school freshman andy "fish" troutner, who is seriously jonesin' for a sophomore named jess. he has an elaborate plan to aquire her and popularity to be executed with the help of his 2 buds, "krak" and hazard.his older bro, pete, a former big man on campus, has come back to the school to become a teacher, expecting to be popular all over again.he learns the hard way about being a "cool" teacher. andy dick plays a way too flamboyant ( i don't mean gay, do i?) drama teacher. the parents are whacky, the female teacher is attractive; hijinks ensue.

it really depends on your tolerance of goofy-doofus jokes about homosexuality and adolescence if this is the show for you.
