I love John Goodman, i hope
this show is good, the last 2
shows he was on sucked. And
with Ben Stiller its usually
a crap shoot with his stuff,
sometimes he's funny, and
sometimes he's not.
wan't Goodman on Broadway with other heavy weights in Waiting for Godot?
The whole idea sounds dated(like the 80s when Reagan was President). I'd be suprised if anyone would get into it today.
