Seriously, it's exactly the same, even the name, as a skit on the Dave Chapelle Show. Is whoever wrote the skit involved in this show, or is Fox just ripping them off?

According to ABC, Fox is actually ripping them off. It's all terribly annoying.

Actually, both are ripping off a very successful British TV show that did it first on Channel 4, before the Dave Chappelle skit. I believe the ABC show is a "licenced" version of it.

But more importantly, is anyone going to watch this drek?
