Okay, could be a lot cleaner. Why is it that in every episode, Howie Do It has to say something dirty or even, in an episode I saw recently, make someone else say something dirty? I know that, in a way, it's not the show's fault when "the mark" says a dirty word but I've even heard one of the actors say, "beeeeep!" The incessant bleeping this show has to do can be... disturbing? Unsettling? Annoying? Torture? Disturbing, unsettling, annoying torture? I think I'm on the right track. Do these people just have dirty words in the script? Probably. It's not a rare thing in this day and age. Okay, I'll admit it. I've seen this show on more than one occasion. Mom has to watch it with me because I'm not allowed to watch it on my own and, well, Daddy just doesn't like it. Believe me, you don't want to hear it when he goes on one of his prank-shows-are-evil rambles. You know what? Daddy's right, as usual. One of the cruelest pranks they've had on this show, which I'm about to spoil the ending of, is when they call up one of those companies that send birthday party clowns and such. They tell them to send a singing man in a rabbit suit, an embarrasing thing anyway, to... somewhere. Guess where the address leads. A funeral home! He nervously walks up to the coffin as the widow (actor) is mourning (it's fake). "It was his last wish. Sing to him!" "Uh, for he's a jolly good fellow..." The dead man sits up and says, "Thank you!" "AH!" One man was more concerned about the fact that he was in a bunny suit and going on TV. Told ya. I felt bad for all twenty of the suckers that went through this routine. The sad thing is that there were only sixteen episodes. Hmm. Well, it's funny when they're not pulling garbage like that. I just wish these people would stop cursing. You might be on national TV, you know. If you are, you get what you deserve. I just hope the reason this show was cancelled is that people are starting to realize DIRTY STUFF IS STUPID!! I know I'm wrong, but I can always dream. And pray. I'm doing a lot of praying. I'll leave you alone so you can pray, too.

i love howie - i think hes super funny and this show is amazing. im sad its not on anymore. some things are bad sexually but nothing HORRIBLE that older kids cant handle

Most of these pranks on this now-canceled show were stupid, but not all of them were inappropriate. However, quite a few of the pranks were inappropriate for younger kids. For example: one prank involved a pole-dancing video with elderly ladies, another involved a gangster cooking show called "Eat That B*****s", and one recurring inappropriate prank was "Desperate Housewives"-lite (the one MovieBuffman talked about). If you're looking for a family-friendly hidden camera show, skip "Howie" and try "Just for Laughs" on ABC.
