CBS compared the show to The Big Bang Theory, which also featured a massive overhaul and recasting after the original pilot. I still have very low hopes for this show, although it can't be as bad as it's time slot counterpoint at NBC, Outsourced.

The entire concept for this show sucks, the name is horrendous. They said to pronounce it "Bleep My Dad Says" seriously wtf kind of shitty title is that? The twitter account is funny and filled with vulgarity and profanity so CBS the clean cut cookie cutter network backing this show gives me zero faith whatsoever in making this work. The only thing I have ever seen this new lead Sadowski in was the episode of Chuck where he played Laszlo, the other nerd that Chuck befriended and had to set up. It's the episode where Sarah dressed as Leia.

I was reading the twitter today, and if anything the vulgarity in every "tweet" got so over the top it was annoying.

This is classic. CBS has issued a letter to viewers struggling to record "$#*! My Dad Says" with their DVRs.

The release comes after The Live Feed's post on the matter, which noted most video recorders have no way to type "$#*!" into their search fields.

Here's the letter:

Dear Valued Viewer,

We have a new show premiering this Thursday at 8:30 PM, ET/PT, called $#*! MY DAD SAYS. It's a unique title for a unique show based on a very popular Twitter feed. In fact, the title of the show is so sophisticated that it's perplexing some DVR search functions that can't read some symbols.

Obviously, our first choice is that you always watch everything on CBS live; however, we also consider the DVR our friend, providing more opportunities for you to watch our programs amidst your very busy lives.

If you'd like to record $#*! MY DAD SAYS from your DVR, we recommend activating the "record" function by going directly through the program guide on your cable or satellite system. Our research shows most viewers record in this method; but, if you're one of the few who have had issues with the DVR search function for this show, this alternative offers an easy solution.

$#*! MY DAD SAYS premieres this Thursday, Sept. 23 at 8:30 PM, ET/PT, immediately following THE BIG BANG THEORY (which has no search function issues whatsoever).

Warmest regards,

CBS

No way..................seriously? I haven't watched it and don't plan to, but seriously?

I'm going to give it one or two more episodes before I make up my mind. I kinda felt some of the things he said were forced and he had to say something for anything that someone said. Also some parts I found to be just unfunny like his brothers wife I thought she was annoying.

I just can't willingly support this show, or the Shat.

I thought it was at least entertaining. I'll give it a few episodes before I judge it, but it made me laugh
