Review title: I DON'T GET IT
Product review: I don't get it. One editorial says this "reads like a classic".Not to me.Chuck Barris likes to use foul language. I mean all the time. A simple line like "I sat under the tree" is transformed into "I sat under the ***#*!* tree." It's gratuitous, it's silly, and it's too much. It becomes seriously grating. At first it was humorous. In the end it's annoying.The whole CIA angle is preposterous. Again, at first it's kind of amusing to think of a little nebbish like Chuck Barris working as a hitman for the CIA, but that too gets old fast. I get a kick out of the "is it true or isn't it" debates. Folks, it's a crock. Okay? End of discussion.The parts that are interesting all revolve around the game shows. But a lot of what's written has me wondering what part of the game show stories are true. I'd like to believe all of it, but given the nature of the book, I can't tell fact from fiction.So I'm left with a book that isn't really all that entertaining.All it really did was annoy me.
