Jason Mantzoukas is kind of ruining the show.


I won't say completely but whenever he shows up (as Adrian Pimento) it's just so tedious to watch and makes me wish it'd only last a few seconds.. It doesn't. I also recall seeing him on a different series and he played a very similar character so guess Jason isn't a very versatile actor.

Update: It was on Parks and Rec.

Exactly! I've grown to loathe him. He plays the same character on The League. He says something extreme / extremely gross while acting crazy and that's the punch line. The first B99 he was on I turned it off halfway through, when he was in the next ep, I was pissed, and now he's still on so I'll try to put up with him, but I may stop watching the show altogether.

I agree .. basically the same character as he played in The League.. In fact Jason Mantzoukas has only ever played the same character in EVERYTHING I have seen him in.. annoying and unfunny.

Yep. That's Jason Mantzoukas' one-note acting and regrettably, they brought him back. Sigh.

The character was great...in his first episode.

He should have been a one-time character. Nothing more.

I can't understand this.

Pimento is the right amounts of bat *beep* crazy and he's hilarious
