Battle Royal? Not Married with Children takes on Not the Cosbys
Tough Decision for AVN Awards Voters
I just spent the last few days voting for the AVN Awards. One of the really tough calls was picking a winner in the Best Parody category. Two titans in this genre are going head to head. X-Play’s Not Married with Children was “one of the very best of the genre” (Read Review Here) while Not the Cosbys was “is Must-See Stroke-TV.” (Read Review Here) Both of these movies is worth owning and one could make an argument for either of them as the top parody of 2009. Which one did I vote for? I ain’t telling, but I can say that I had a good time re-watching them both.
From the Press Release
Battle Royal? Not Married with Children XXX vs Not the Cosbys XXX as Best Parody
(Hollywood, CA) Many are saying that Not Married with Children XXX is the best porn parody of the year and with the recent explosion of adult movie spoofs, AVN has added a Best Parody category to their upcoming awards ceremony in Las Vegas. However others say that Not the Cosbys XXX might be the best parody which is causing headaches and a sense of concern for the hit-makers at X-Play which created both movies.
Why the concern? Not Married with Children XXX is a favorite to win because the movie is “just like the famous Fox Television show of the 1980s and early 90s” and features spot-on performances by Eric Swiss as Al Bundy earning a Best Actor nomination, Kagney Linn Karter for Best Supporting Actress as the slutty Kelly Bundy and Brittany O’Connell Best Supporting Actress for her hilarious role as Peg Bundy.
However, Not the Cosbys XXX is also “so spot-on perfect” with Thomas Ward playing Cliff Huxtable in what many are saying is the greatest non-sex performance ever in the history of adult cinema. His performance is so uncanny that many think they are watching sir Bill Cosby himself and when you throw in the Female Performer of the Year nominee Misty Stone as Denise Huxtable and some of the greatest family situations ever you begin to have a battle royal brewing.
Gram Ponante writes in his movie review, “Not Married with Children XXX features a script that is just as good (or bad) as the original. If Fox picked up 22 episodes of Not Married with Children XXX, I would watch it.”
Movie reviewer Don Houston first wrote glowingly about Not the Cosbys XXX on Xcritic.com, “It’s the high mark as the best sitcum (situation porn parody) to date, elevating the standard for the rest of the pack yet again.” His words came before he would get a chance to watch Not Married with Children XXX which came out two months later.
Hence the headaches felt by producers Scott David & Jeff Mullen who worry that the awards voters might split their votes hurting their chances to win.
“Look, Not the Cosbys XXX is our black Brady Bunch because it is so wholesome, pure and good until they take their pants off. Not Married with Children XXX is America’s number one raunchy comedy for good reason because they are completely dysfunctional until they take their pants off,” joked director Will Ryder.
“We can’t worry about splitting votes because that will drive us insane but we’re proud of both movies and I think either one of them can win,” stated co-producer Scott David who knows that winning won’t be easy.
Both movies will be broadcast on Playboy TV in the upcoming year.
Georga at Adult Movies Today.net thinks that the X-Play sitcums are a huge cut above all other competitor parodies writing, “You also start to wonder why Will Ryder never became a mainstream director for television.”
Rogreviews.com writes, “The X Play team still makes the best parodies on the market.”
Don Houston might tip the scales when all is said and done as he wrote, “there has been nothing released in the last year from competitors that beat this one.”
He was referring to Not Married with Children XXX.
