5.0 out of 5 stars "Dumb comedy dressed up in a suit.", August 17, 2006
By Adam R. Beauchesne (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I hate to just throw another five stars at Stella with the other reviewers, but it deserves nothing less! The comedy is brilliantly simple, which is hard to find in TV these days. The plots are simple and predictable enough that the ridiculousness of the jokes becomes the focus of each episode. It's amazing how few television shows take the absurdist route these days, but at the same time; I would have never guessed that three men in suits that act like toddlers could make me seriously laugh. The three main actors are hysterical in their unusual relationship with each other.

I watched much of the show's first season, and immediately decided that it was some kind of independant group that had come up with their own plots, and would stay away from the mainstream. However, they score huge credibility with great guest stars (Jeanine Garofalo, Paul Rudd I believe?), that play off of the absurdist comedy with some strange touch of realism. I can't recommend this show enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!, September 22, 2006
By Quatermass (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
I love this show. I watch much less Comedy Central now that it's off. The series plays like a modern-day Marx Bros. with an absurdist twist and some fun celebrity cameos. Nice extras on the DVD, especially the "History of Stella" documentary, which features great footage from the live shows.

People who hate this show are probably the same people who have made Larry the Cable Guy a ratings sensation on Comedy Central. Get 'er done! Gaaharf, gaaharf! It's a shame that there's no room for a smart show like Stella when Redneck Comedy Hour is on like five times a day.

Somebody call Marcus!

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly fabulous!!, September 28, 2006
I've been following Stella from afar for a few years now. I live in England, I'm English and sometimes comedy doesn't translate well across the pond. But this is probably one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I love comedy, and have a broad range of tastes, so maybe that's why I lapped up every ounce of hilarity to be squeezed from this glorious show. But you have to give it a chance, you can't watch a single episode in isolation and dismiss it.

Sure, there's more than a hint of self-indulgence and a great measure of self-gratification evident in the antics of our 3 heros and their alter-egos. But that's what makes it funny. Maybe some people don't like to invest their time in their entertainment any more, maybe they can't be bothered to get to know the perfomers and their scope and multi-talented endeavours. Well that's their loss, because that's why this nugget of comedy gold shines out like a beacon in a river of dross.

Put in some groundwork people, don't be lazy. Fast food is one thing, but that kind of instant gratification doesn't apply here. Stella needs to enjoyed like a gourmet dinner. And best of all, it's calorie free.

This could be the funniest show I've ever watched. Hardcore fans like myself will find the commentaries just as funny as the shows themselves.
