I think I need more from a comedy that most people. I like Paul Rudd - hey, he's Phoebe's husband. Everyone likes Rashida Jones (in a small role as the fiancé). And Jason Seagal is adequate. I'm not a prude, but I need more humor out of crude jokes than just the crudeness. And this is packed with crudeness, for no real comedic gain (to me - others obviously disagree). Paul shot for the awkward-comedy (like The Office) and missed. There are certainly funny moments (farting at the open house, the billboards) - but the few laughs didn't make up for the missteps.
