Review of This American CheeseDidn't work for me at all, like 14year olds making a home movie. Nothing like KUOW's "Rewind" doing 'this american car talk,' at least there the person SOUNDED like Ira glass. Not suitable for NPR's 3min slots in so many ways... |

Review of This American CheeseWell,it was bound to happen:"This American Life"paints itself into a corner that's easily susceptible to parody.

Review of This American Cheese
I'm with Kyle. This guy's nailed the TAL way. It's no stirring indictment - there's no bite like you might expect from a top notch Gouda or Gorgonzola - but hey, for 2:35 minutes, it deserves a chance to shine on air and garners its share of chuckles. Well-produced, coherent.
