He should not be on 'Mad TV'

I'm shocked that Stephnie Weir, Aries Spears, and Mo Collins have at least one negative post, but Ike Barinholtz has none. The aforementioned three were some of the best cast members; they all put a lot of life into their characters. Ike sounds just as generic every time (even with accents), like he is just reading lines. The only thing I found even remotely funny was one line: "Kiss her, ya homo" (as Bernardo, the albino).

No disrespect intended to Ike's fans. This is just one person's opinion.

Th@s ur opinion. I love Ike Barinholtz and he's HOT and SEXY! Acting and comedy are his calling!

I think he fits in very well with the MADtv cast. Of course, Stephnie and Aries have been on way longer than he has, so maybe with time Ike will get better. But I do find him funny, especially when they're at some red carpet event or something.

i think ike is very talented. my opinion is that because he is generic he is able to be very funny. instead of being incredibly out there and weird like the three you mentioned (who might i add i think are hilarious), he has the ability to be somewhat believeable, but at the same time absurd, which i think is more funny.
i think ike is one of the best cast members on the show right now.

i dont think hes funny at all...hes part of the reason madtv isnt that funny anymore...hes just not funny. period.

I like Ike, it's for the usual girly reasons, but I do think he is an incredibly funny and talented guy. I like MadTV alot better than SNL, because MadTV is not always politics. I think Ike has great potential. I only wish that Josh was still with MadTV they made quite a pair!

I think he's very funny and sexy as hell! He seems to have quickly moved to the center of the show, and I think that is because he is relatively normal and not as bizzare as most of the cast. He's like your best friend in college, ya know?

I think he is the funny! especially when he was Kevin Fedarline, that was hilarious. And he is so hot!!

My only problem with him is just how much they lean on him to play characters. He's in WAY too many of the skits to the point that you can get a little sick of him.
