It's Meta-Belushi, Right?

Yo, Mr Triv!

My friend Spencer and me have a $5 (American) bet . I say that According to Jim is a meta-sitcom because it is sending up Everybody Loves Raymond, King of Queens et. al. Clearly Jim Belushi "workin' stiff" isn't meant to be funny because he is too boorish, stupid, insensitive, detached and - let's face it - poorly-acted by Jim Belushi to be anything but a deeply witty "put-on" by some of the sharpest writers and performers working in US network sitcom since the Seinfeld.

Spencer says they "mean it". Little help here.

Hi Massimo.

You owe Spencer five dollars American.
