Comedy, and some music, by Adam Sandler. A total of 22 tracks.

1. Assistant Principal's Big Day
2. Buffoon and the Dean of Admissions
3. Buddy
4. Longest Pee
5. Food Innuendo Guy
6. Beating of a High School Janitor
7. Right Field
8. Buffoon and the Valedictorian
9. Mr. Spindel's Phone Call
10. Thanksgiving Song
11. Beating of a High School Bus Driver
12. Oh Mom...
13. Fatty McGee
14. At a Medium Pace
15. Beating of a High School Science Teacher
16. Cheerleader
17. I'm So Wasted
18. Lunchlady Land
19. Beating of a High School Spanish Teacher
20. Toll Booth Willie
21. Teenage Love on the Phone
22. My Little Chicken

A bit sophomoric, but at times hilarious, this is vintage Sandler. The target audience seems to be high school kids, but more mature listeners are able to enjoy some of it as well.

My favorite skits are Right Field, Buffoon and the Valedictorian, I'm So Wasted, and Toll Booth Willie. The best song is Lunchlady Land.

WARNING: Some of these tracks are a bit crude, so prudish listeners may not want to purchase this CD.

i have to admit, whatever may be said about him, i find Sandler pretty damn funny. I saw Big Daddy recently when it was on terrestrial UK tv, and i have seen Mr Deeds, and both did manage to make me LOL. Big Daddy more so though. Sentimentality AND comedy in a near-perfect mix, as opposed to Deeds' comedy-heavy skew.
Anyway, i think a good deal of people simply criticize him because he's managed to become a famous comedian. I dunno where this preconception came from that you have to be "undiscovered" for 20-30-odd years, but it's bollocks to be honest. Sandler is, so far, pretty damn funny. Funnier than many, in fact. Maybe not yet on a par with classics, but give him a chance for fucks' sake. I mean, not even all of the Pythons' stuff was genuinely hilarious. They did make a number of cockups.

MR. DEEDS was indeed a let-down, though there were some funny parts.


BIG DADDY was pretty much hilarious. "Old Man Balls" still cracks me up... ;)

I liked "The Wedding Singer", and....well, that's it really. Sorry.
