The first season was released on DVD on March 21, 2006 to coincide with the premiere. The second season became Comedy Central's ninth highest rated program. In a May 2006 Wall... Street Journal article, Mencia said he initially resisted requests by his network to take a deal to do a stand-up comedy album on the Comedy Central label, but will now likely appear on one. The series ended in 2008 after four seasons when Mencia decided against filming a fifth season. In season two they put stereotypes to the test. Few of the stereotypes stood up to the test. Punji is a Hindu storekeeper who insults customers with obvious physical and/or social problems, before telling them to "get the park out of my store".
