This Mike-centered show is more interesting than funny.  At least Jane Brucker is better than she was on Whose Line Is It Anyway?  There are moments that I like, such as Mike imitating a French ambulance, and there is a certain what-the-hell-why-not quality to the proceedings.  Still, I probably would've gone with a C if not for the Mark Mothersbaugh theme, which is used not only at opening and closing but between scenes.  And, yes, this was made for Ha! but taped two years later on Ha!'s merger with the Comedy Channel: Comedy Central.
