Josie and the Pussycats

This would make a good rental since there isn't that much replay value. One of the shows that I fondly remember from my wasted youth is Josie and the Pussycats , mainly because of the infectious theme song that I can still hear whenever I think of the show. ... Full Review

But fortunately, when it´s not being overly disgusting, it´s actually a funny satire of modern societal conventions. There are a lot of fantastically juvenile "dick and fart jokes" that are parceled among the social commentary of "Drawn Together," creating humor that should apply to just about any sophomoric comedy fan in their late teens or twenties. ...

The movie is equally fun, funny, silly and cute, and it has a collection of likeably catchy songs to boot. You could argue that the filmmakers have got the best of both worlds - all the sponsorship money while still making their main point. ... Full Review
