So I watched Memphis Beat last night thinking that it was going to be phenomenal! I have been a Jason Lee fan since the mid 90's when he awed the world with the Stink Palm. I haven't missed or hated anything that he's worked on since Mall Rats, with or without Kevin Smith. In fact, I have actually caught up on all of his prior work. I even became a fan of all of his skateboarding work and was thrilled when I found him in Skate3.
I know what you're thinking and no, I actually loved Memphis Beat. There were a few spots where I was kind of like, huh? But those mostly revolved around his new boss. The closing song was kind of silly as you could tell he was going all Ashlee Simpson on us. I had really hoped to see him just let loose and whoop someone's ass, but instead he just shook someone near the edge of a rooftop. Works for me!
I really hope that there is as much slapstick comedy in this new show as I'm used to from him, his unusual melodic noises, dick and fart jokes, etc.
If for any reason at all you find yourself reading this Jason Lee, kudos to you and keep it up. Also, if you ever have an episode involving BBQ.. hit me up. :)
