    Rob and Big

    anybody enjoy this show? my buddy got me watching it, I think there are only like 4 episodes or something, but I gotta say that I love it. some cool skating and general mayhem a la Jackass, but there's more. there's a heart. In a world where that whore paris hilton is all over the media, it's good to see a show like Rob and Big. A black dude and a white dude who clearly care about eachother and have fun with eachother. They aren't out to specificially harm anyone, just to go out and have fun. In one episode they go to the amusement park in ohio, win all sorts of big prizes and give them to little kids. I figure that's pretty cool. I guess I just dig that they are totally living a sweet life, having fun, not hurting anyone and are just good people.

    anyways, there is zero snow around here, I'm in school all the time and recently started watching tv again after a couple year hiatus. generally speaking, I hate everything on tv except Pats games, Sox games, the occasional Bruins game, 60 minutes, the simpsons and the discovery channel but Rob and Big are okay in my book. oh and Meaty, he's cool too.
    thats new hampshire as fuck

    Isn't Big his bodyguard? Why does a pro skater need a bodyguard?

    I think this show rules, and I have no idea why. It just does.

    F'ing hilarious stuff and they are a great duo to boot.

    I'd love to run into those two at a bar and hang with them for the night.

    Anyone see the matchmaker episode?

    Ditto.

    On a different note, I had no idea pro skateboarders could make so much coin.

    Now I'm even more pissed at my Mom for not letting me have a skateboard.
    In with the 9.

    Rob and Big rules, and there's a lot more than four episodes.

    Something about that show is good.

    I was bumming when Rob's dog had the siezure but seeing the dog skate later in the show was pretty damn cool.

    Rob Dyrdek is the "D" in DC Shoe Co. That is where the coin comes from. And this show rocks. I love it. Always good for a laugh. Big's lazy eye roolz.

    This show is great. They have a "have fun" attitude, which is awesome. No synthesized drama for attention, no big ego's; just fun. It's refreshing and inspiring (I always try to have fun, but sometimes I forget).

    wrongo, it stood for Droors Clothing back when...

    the show stems from Rob's part in the DC video from a few years back. great show, it seems a little fake at times though.

    Rob was also one of Red Bull's first signings when they got into the sponsorship thing. big bucks.
    fine

    I love when he goes and visits his family in Ohio. The whole 'salad' scene cracks me up. Skating dogs and Bigs 'diet' are good ones, too. Poor Big, guy couldn't even run for 5 minutes and had to get weighed on a scale at the recycling center...
