8/10
Not what I expected, but thankful I watched it.

I think many of us have felt like David (Jesse Heiman) at some points in our lives - being unnoticed and underappreciated. Sometimes it's just a kind word or two that can change someone's life.

I think Pauly Shore nailed it. Richard Simmons is weird, quirky, and yet he is intense in his endeavors to help people. And lovable. Pauly really put that into his performance. If you know Richard's work at all, you could tell that it wasn't coming across as poking fun or a parody, but rather as an homage to an icon.

This is not funny or sappy like you would expect from a Pauly performance. It was uplifting. Well done.
