Check out the key art for ABC's 'Man Up' -- PHOTO

Tags: , News

NO way does ABC want to stop at Last Man Standing. There is another comedy coming down the pipeline that’s about knuckleheaded, clueless “identity-challenged” dudes called Man Up! Debuting Oct. 18, the series stars Mather Zickel, Dan Fogler and Christopher Moynihan and “follows the struggles of three modern male archetypes as they search for their identities and try to prove they are `real men.’”

Like, for example: What’s so wrong with drinking girlie cocktails? Anyway, here is the promotional shot for the comedy, along with a clip to prepare you for all those weeks of gut-busting laughter. Woo hoo!

    Am I the only one who things this show is not about men who act like women but Bonehead idiots who act like childern? The preview did make me laugh though

    • Voodoo

      How do “men” and “women” act anyway? Is there a standard we all should conform to? I never got the memo. You’re right though, they’re more like children.

      • whatevs

        You’re seriously saying there’s no discernible difference in the way that men act compared to women?

      • Voodoo

        @whatevs
        I’m saying not all men act alike, and not all women act alike. Or would you deny that?

    • Carmen

      It’s actually really funny. I saw the pilot.

  • chgosaint

    “Cancelled before it even airs!” The best possible fate that could befall the American people. We have done nothing to deserve this.

    • jake

      same thing was said about Friends and Seinfeld

      • Gordy

        They showed the Seinfeld pilot in syndication last week and it was soooo bad. Amazing how much better it got with a little love and time to grow.

      • Lisa Perkins

        Exactly!!!! Gotta give it a chance- took a while for people to get hooked on Friends and look at where that went!!!

  • Kate

    Even though this is harmless fun I know that GLAAD is going to claim this is some how offensive to gays.

  • Hate this stuff

    I am so tired of ugly, untalented, fat loser guy gets the girl/wins movies and now television show. These guys are not cute, and they are not lovable lumps, they are Cro-Magnon losers, unable and/or unwilling to change in a brand new world.

    Stop glorifying men being lumps and have them do something with themselves, evolve and change. If this show helps the characters build on what they are then it might be well worth watching. If not then these shows and movies are only good for the delusional rather than the healthy male ego.

      calm down….it’s a fu@%in comedy

  • LOL

    America loves crap.

  • Kim

    I really like Dan Folger. I think he’s really funny. But he plays the same character (see “Fanboys” and “Take Me Home Tonight.”), which in “Fanboys” was hilarious… This… I will watch, but maybe while drunk.

  • anonymous

    Prediction: Canceled by January.

  • Fletcher

    I saw the pilot and really liked it. Also, your embed doesn’t work. You might want to check your work/posts before you push them live. Sloppy blogging.

  • Rebecca

    The guy on the left looks like a MUCH less hot version of Chris Evans.

  • chris

    This will be cancelled and quickly. Have not seen a single advertisement.

  • jake

    I saw the pilot and it’s actually really funny! You people are so negative….

  • Gordy

    What’s up with the trend of people reviewing shows online that they haven’t seen? All the reviews are negative and it’s always based on some personal bias and then you see the show and it’s great or not that bad. Then the shows that everybody hypes end up sucking like Whitney. At least the show isn’t about some fat middle aged blogger who collects chihuahuas.
