10 TV Shows That Should Never Have Made It Past The Pilot

3. Rob (2012), 8 episodes

Rob For reasons unclear to me, people keep paying Rob Schneider money to do things; things other than, "Please go away and leave us all alone." Since people keep paying him money, he keeps getting to do things. Most of those things, to be fair, are Adam Sandler related, but occasionally he ventures out on his own to give us such gems as Deuce Bigelow: Male Gigolo (best review, as near as I can remember: The title rhymes! That's funny! It has Rob Schneider. That's not), and Deuce Bigelow: European Gigolo (best review: ...well, this). In this TV series, Schneider plays an OCD-suffering man who marries into your stereotypical Latino family. "Hilarity" ensues. This is the kind of concept that would have been considered extremely racist with a loud black family. With Latinos, it's slightly less racist, though that's like saying the Nazis were slightly less racist than the Klan. And really, that's all you need to know about this show. It stars an unfunny lead actor who plays racist stereotypes in many of his movies, and in this show, marries into a whole family full of such things.
