"This is the Show"

Posted by Stephie Grob Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

Many of you may be asking yourselves, your local city councilmen, and me via Twitter the following:"What IS Michael and Michael Have Issues"?

Michael and Michael Have Issues is one part sketch comedy, two parts show-within-a-show narrative, a behind the scenes look at the making of a fictional sketch comedy show aptly titled Michael and Michael Have Issues. Black and Sho essentially play exaggerated versions of themselves, and each episode taps into that "issues" theme, whether that be Michael and Michael's jealousies of each other, their combined forces against a common foe, or their collaborated attempts to do good.

For a prime example of such issues in play, see here:

[...] Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter's new show is called Michael and Michael Have Issues, but it's more than just a title. You see, just as Jan Michael Vincent was really an Airwolf, it turns out Michael and Michael actually do have issues in real life. Here's a Twitter thread that was recently posted on the MMHI blog.

I can't see anything appealing about this show,

I'm not gay enough to get it.

Oh well, time for me to skip through a field of daisies and dream of happy nights with bulging dvr's overflowing with shirtless karate-kick inducing issues … la di da la la ….. hooray!
