I was looking forward to the translation of a hilarious book into a television series, and there is a lot of comedic situations that could be exploited for some excellent television. Unfortunately, the Delivery of the one-liners in this show are awful and are not at all supported by the lacklustre acting of both Shatner and Sadowski. The movement from the medium of a book, which captures moments in a hilarious quote from his father, to the television, which has to have a continuing episodic plot, causes difficulties that the writers of this show have not dealt with, and Shatner mumbling something about grape-nuts does not a good joke make. The (fairly annoying) laugh track that plays every few seconds seems to indicate that this is supposed to be funny, but ultimately Sh*t My Dad Says fails at the one thing that it was supposed to be. Read the Book (or the twitter feed) instead, which is actually funny.
