long-time married pair, Jeff (Patrick Warburton) and Audrey (Megyn
Price), and a single guy on the prowl, Russell (David Spade) and his
assistant, Timmy (Adhir Kalyan). As they find out, the often confusing
stages of a relationship can seem like being on a roller coaster.
People can describe the ride to you, but to really know what it’s like
you have to experience it for yourself.

broadcast network run, “Rules of Engagement” builds its time period in
each of its five seasons. “Rules of Engagement” is also the #1 CBS
network comedy in repeatability.
Tom Hertz, Doug Robinson and Jack Giarraputo serve as executive
producers on “Rules of Engagement” which is produced by Happy Madison
Productions and CBS Television Studios in association with Sony
Pictures Television.

CELEBRITY HOMOPHOBIA- DAVID SPADE: HOMOPHOBIC ASSHOLE.

Adam Sandler’s little bitch, David Spade was at commercial shoot for IBM computers. This was done with a Hollywood past and present feel-with all the archetypes of all the big stars. The smug comic was doing a silent cameo as a mean, arrogant star being driven around on a golf cart.

However, back stage he was stalking around his tiny cell phone- attacking his cast and crew mates at the Universal Studios stage by stating, "It's pretty gay around here.”



Worse, he would only say this when certain people passed by- so he could cowardly attacks them while making it seem like conversation. Then, as the commercial was winding down- he then said to longtime director Joe Pytka “What about Hershey(TM) over there” by attacking an unidentifiable crew person (he was mistaking for an actor) as which his way of attacking a black person as gay (Her/She {phonetic} )and using the dark chocolate of the product- emphasizing the black angle.)

This was despite the fact that this person was 1) NOT GAY!! 2) He and Spade hadn't spoken to each other that day and 3) DID NOT know each other at all. Plus, Spade was dressed as Vegas-like drug dealer with bad Fu-Man Chu beard.

When the other actors heard Spade speak- they claimed to hear him attacking his friend and meal ticket, Click star Adam Sander based on his bad acting and going after his manhood based on his role in the awful…ly successful remake, The Longest Yard.

This is a terrible display by a public figure with the emotional growth of E from Entourage. Vincent Chase cancelled a potential meeting with Spade ,to cameo in his next movie.

Comedy Central should fire the longtime loser (on that Hollywood program) & replace him with actually funny comics like Arsenio Hall, Sarah Silverman, or Jay Mohr. At the very least these sponsors in particular, should END all ties with his show until massive, multiple APOLOGIES (a la Mel Gibson) are issued to ALL parties with NO comedic tendencies whatsoever.
