Patrick Warburton is a talented man. You may not know his face but anyone who's anyone about cartoons should recognize his voice in Family Guy and the Venture Brothers, but he hasn't had enough television time. His life as a live actor can be best described by his role in Men in Black 2 (dear Lord).
Luckily that's going to change. Monday nights are now home to a new sitcom starring none other than the heavenly-voiced Patty. It's called Rules of Engagement and Patrick plays a married man who's friends with a single man and one who's engaged. Although the premise is a but washed-out and overplayed in Hollywood, there's some fresh material here that should keep you entertained, and if that's not enough then Patrick's presence is most definitely a redeeming factor.
Unfortunately he's accompanied in his role by David Spade whose acting is so terrible he made Chris Farley commit suicide. Other than those two is a guy whose name doesn't matter because he sucks, but the stage name is "Jeff" and if he wasn't engaged I'd bet money on him being a homosexual. Let's just hope that future episodes will continue to please and feature more of my friend here, whose tears have been known to heal sick children.
Too bad he's never cried.
