Trailer Trash: Raising Hope and Running Wilde


By Staff | | 10:00 am | 3 Comments

A fantastic Fall Premiere week continues, so Trailer Trash does too! Join us around ye ole water cooler to trash talk the trailers of Raising Hope and Running Wilde, both premiering tonight on FOX.

Bbitz: Cloris Leachman and Martha Plimpton in the same show? I guess there’s no reason for me to pray anymore.

HoneyGangsta: He wants to name the baby Princess Beyonce! I’ll watch one episode for that.

Chance of Success: 25%

Flipit: A young dumbass gets stuck with a baby. I laughed, but I also laugh at car crashes and animal shelters so don’t put too much stock in that. Martha Plimpton telling the new dad that he can drop the baby off at the fire station and Cloris Leachman’s complete lack of vanity have me sold.

Complete lack of vanity.

Also, babies get way too much respect in our culture. It’s good to see a show that’s unafraid of not strapping a baby in in the backseat to let us watch it being tossed around like a nickel in a dryer. Baby abuse? Underrated. This will succeed. If all else fails, they’ll just put in more baby shots.

Screen shot 2010-09-20 at 10.10.32 PMAW! I’m recording this until that kid turns two and then I’m never watching it again.

Chance of Success: 100%

Monamonzano: Barf. Oh wait, though, he rocks a rubber glove as a milk bottle. I’m sold.

Chance of Success: This show has NO audience but wannabe young twentysomething chicks who think that they can “change men.” So…90 percent chance of success.

SexyPanda: Martha Plimpton got old?? Lots of sight gags, could be cute for a season, then gone.

Chance of Success: 40%

Running Wilde, FOX

St. Claire of Assisi: It’s a great premise, the trailer does it justice, Fox needs comedies, I love Will Arnett, and Arrested Development was my favorite show ever!

Chance of Success: .01%

SexyPanda: GOTTA give it a chance–it’s the Arrested Development peeps! Also, the pool from Cocoon is in it. Star!

Screen Shot 2010-09-20 At 9.46.14 Pm

Chance of Success: 65%

HoneyGangsta: I always knew Felicity would end up a great big crunchy hippie.

Chance of Success: 20%

PottyMouth: OF COURSE the mute child really talks! DUH. This trailer owes me three minutes of my time.

Chance of Success: 0

Bbitz: “Arrested Development” + Heart? It’s a gamble but I’d watch an infomercial about SARS if it had “AD” connections.

Chance of Success: 99%

Flipit: This trailer looks like an eighties romantic comedy starring Shelly Long, so I’m in! A goody two shoes tries to change a prick into a gentleman. Sounds terrible, but Will Arnett is HILARIOUS. Also, since it’s the Arrested Development team there might be a chance they’ll work Liza Minelli into the plot. YAY!

Chance of Success: Who knows? Bring on Liza!

    I think I’ll pass on Raising Hope, but I’m willing to give Running Wilde a try. The premise sounds dumb but Arrested Development was my favorite show ever.

    The only part of Running Wilde I enjoyed? When the voiceover girl said that Steve had made a huge mistake. I waited patiently for Arnett to say “I’ve made a huge mistake.” chuckled when he did not. Since my namesake is from Arrested, I’ll take whatever reference i can get.

    Raising Hope was awesome! But they really should call the old lady MeeMaw. Maw Maw just isn’t trashy enough.
