DVD Reviews of Mind of Mencia - Uncensored Season 1
DVD Review: The Splenda Effect {2.5 Stars}
Summary: 2 Stars
Before you click the not helpful button, understand that I've been a fan of Carlos Mencia's comedy since the early/mid 90's. The problem with Carlos is the fact that his jokes never change. If you've heard one of his acts, you've heard all of his acts. The first time I ever heard him do stand up I couldn't stop laughing at it. He was laugh out loud funny to me (which almost never happens with me). But as the years went on, I found that Carlos Mencia's material would rarely change. I'm not easily offended. In fact, I love risk taking comedians, but after a while I began to feel like I'd heard everything Carlos had to say.
Fast forward to late 2005/early 2006 and Comedy Central is in a hectic scramble to fill the void that the unintentional smash hit, Chappelle's Show, left after Dave Chappelle goes M.I.A. because he doesn't like the direction of the show is taking. Thus, Mind Of Mencia is born. I said to myself "Carlos is getting a show? This ought to be great." When I tuned in to watch, I found that the show was a b-level version of Chappelle's Show with a hispanic twist and, in a way, it's no fault of Mencia's. Comedy Central felt like they needed something similar to Chappelle's Show to keep the huge fan base that Chappelle had brought to the channel. Insert Carlos Mencia. The blatant imitation coupled with the fact that Mencia talks about the same thing over and over and you have Mind Of Mencia. Like another reviewer said, Chappelle did jokes about racists while Mencia did racist jokes.
If you're new to Mencia's comedy then you'll love it (like I did when I first heard him in the early 90's). But if you've been listening to him for a while now, then you know he's been talking about the same stuff for at least 12 years and it's beyond repetitive now. The show is like his stand up -- funny in spots. The show misses more than it hits and when it does hit, it won't generate anything above a chuckle.
Simply put, Dave Chappelle was like sugar. You'd tune in, watch it, and you'd become addicted to it. If Dave was sugar, then Mencia is Splenda. You tune in to the substitute, watch it, and find that it has a familiar flavor......but with a terrible aftertaste.
