Diagonaldi Very well executed

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

SnoopyStyle Jack Mlicki (Jack McBrayer) was the star of a TV show called Triumph's Boy. It lasted 11 seasons. The former child star and Triumph (Robert Smigel) party hard. Jack loses all his money which was squandered by his parents. He gets whored out by Triumph. With nowhere to go, they go and live with TV-mother June Gregory (June Squibb). She abandons Triumph in the woods but he works his way back to Jack.It's weird. It's outlandish. It's silly. It's stupid. McBrayer and Triumph sometimes do bits on the streets for Conan. June Squibb has a sassy sense of humor. This could work but it mostly doesn't. The main section is a spoof of a network TV show with the artificial set and a live audience. It is not that funny despite some outrageous humor. The laugh track is loud. It's either part of the spoof or a bad part of the sitcom. The best parts remain the unscripted bits that McBrayer and Triumph do with unsuspecting people. This is a weird experiment. I admire the attempt but it's not always good.

atlasmb If you are familiar with Triumph and his style of humor, then this show will be no surprise. It is filled with irreverent humor aimed at his costars, other actors, and even the studio audience.Expect anything in this no-holds-barred comedy. Breaking the fourth wall. Revealing the audience during a skit. Even including washed up has-beens like Paul Rudd and Michael Winslow (I keed, I keed!).The plot of the pilot establishes the premise of the show: A young man and his insulting dog live with an elderly lady who can dish it as well as she can take it. The second episode pokes fun at "hipsters" and anyone else who dares enter a scene with Triumph. You will like this show if you think Lawrence Olivier was one of the great screen talents...for me to poop on! Seriously, though, remember this is adult humor and should not be watched by those under age 18 or anyone who might have participated in community government in Alaska. I keed! Enjoy it...if you dare!

verbusen I loved the first episode and liked the second episode a lot also. It's the team from Conan's show with an old fat woman added in who is great. I can't complain at all since I'm a Triumph fan. I mean, there seem to be a lot of haters on IMDb (if you look at the message board for people too lazy to add a review) but the overall score of the show is above 7 so that's really good. What are the alternatives on Adult Swim? They go to Satan worship a lot, or Christian bashing, or red neck bashing, or bashing baby boomer cartoons (that's always funny but repetitive after a decade plus). This is one show that did what I wrote about before, bash some hipsters, and they did a little. I'm on-board. Throw in some S word profanity (I wonder if that is pushing the limit? And if not why the other AS shows have not used it yet?) Some T&A, some gay bashing, liberal bashing, Hollywood bashing, I hope the show pays off for them! It's funny! Oh and it has some animal humor (cats) in it also, reminiscent of TV Funhouse which I LOVED! If you have never seen the 2 part TV Funhouse with Robert Goulet you have to watch it, totally hilarious! Good luck with the show and ratings! I'm giving it a 10.

zif ofoz A friend told me about this as I had not heard of it. So I looked it up and was surprised by so many 'critics' negative comments on other websites. This is a low budget insult comedy program on a cable channel --- what do the critics want? We have Triumph (a rubber puppet dog) and his silly family. It's all about the insults the story is secondary. It's sort of like the Jack & Triumph version of Mamma's Family! You just gotta go with it and enjoy.I luved it and will be watching again! The insults were fired off fast and furious - as only Triumph can do. I hope they can keep up the goofy silliness that made the first show so funny. ------------- To date (Mar 29, 2015) I have watched all six episodes of Jack & Triumph and I have luved every one of them!!
