jaybeebrad With "The Neighbors" you get exactly what you're expecting from a Tommy Wiseau project: terrible acting and dialog, completely nonsensical interactions, bad direction, lighting and staging... the whole nine yards.Unfortunately you also get characters that seem like walking talking racial and gender stereotypes straight out of 1996. In particular the black characters almost seem to exist to be offensive. If this is Tommy's idea of what black people are like inside his warped mind, he's not the harmless buffoon everyone seems to think they love.Women are inexplicably running around in micro bikinis, women call each other dirty hos and sluts for no reason... the entire thing would be more offensive if it wasn't so incompetent.Do yourself a favor and avoid this crap and just go watch "The Room" again.

CTS-1 Let's be honest: nobody comes to "The Neighbors" as a Tommy Wiseau virgin. People come to "The Neighbors" because they have seen "The Room," and, because they feel an innate need to be punished and can't afford to have a really attractive person do it for them, they want more.Well, it has everything you would want. Tommy Wiseau plays several characters- badly. Especially off-putting is his attempt to play an "all-American boy" about 1/3 his real age. The other performances vary from incompetent, to lazy, to "just mailing it in," although an all-time list of best acting talent ever couldn't make anything out of the writing.And what the Hell is going on with those bizarre bumpers between scenes? Also: every single scene feels like one of the "acting" scenes in a porn film. It takes rare anti-talent to do that. Contributing to that vibe is the single-camera shots with no POV cuts, combined with sets that scream "dollar store." Or the number of times that the scenes really do involve sleazy attempts by one character to get it on with another, but done in such a robotic way as to be off-putting. Or the pizza delivery guy who takes his shirt off for no apparent reason.Okay, here's the game for viewing "The Neighbors": load up every bad porn film plot trope on "bingo" cards, and hand them out before watching three episodes. Wiseau uses them all! Oh, and people yell a lot.See it with your friends that you took to see "The Room," and were still your friends after the experience.

Zalman King of Nothing Ugly, monstrous, revolting, racist, execrable, incomprehensible, inept, incompetent, incomprehensible, incoherent, unwatchable. This show looks like '80s video porn without the sex. The audio sounds like nails on a blackboard. The actors apparently had to go slumming after California's condom law was passed. No one in this show goes unscathed. I never saw "The Room", but I knew going in "The Neighbors" was going to be bad. It is beyond bad. It is an abomination. It is a thing that should not be. This is NOT one of those inept things that is entertaining in spite of itself. It is the most unpleasant thing you will ever see. This cannot be overstated. Do not watch.

stsinger The long promised (threatened?) television sitcom "The Neighbors" from Tommy Wiseau, the man behind "The Room" has finally arrived on Hulu Plus. There are simply no words in the English -- or any other --language to describe this series. Alternately hilarious and bizarre, I guarantee you will sit in front of the television set slack-jawed as this one of a kind show unfolds before you. Filled with weird characters (crazy lady who lives with a chicken, women who always wears a bikini, Tommy Wiseau himself playing two characters each with a more ridiculous wig), inane running jokes and outrageous dialog, this is everything you could have hoped for from the mastermind of "The Room" and even more.The sitcom follows a large group of people who live in an apartment complex. The main character is the building's manager Charlie (played by Wiseau), and each episode something new happens that the cast reacts to. After every scene, there is a stock shot of the apartment building with odd techno music that might have subliminal messages in it because I defy you to not be humming it after the fourth or fifth time it shows up in the half-hour. And keep a lookout for the official "Tommy Wiseau Underwear" that several cast members wear and show off!!If you enjoyed "The Room" -- or even if you didn't -- then do not hesitate one second to watch this series.
