The class is super easy, and he is very funny! It can get a little boring when we take notes but he tries to make it fun by telling stories. Take the class because it's so easy and you can check out the weird T-shirts he wears.

This teacher is so funny... and his shirts are ridiculous... you'd think he was going to a cruise everyday. He kept the class interesting and it's an easy A. Attendance is a must.

He was a hilarious teacher. everything that comes out of his mouth is funny. hes also a very easy and helpful teacher. I missed the midterm and he let me take it a week later. the subject isnt interesting to me but he made it enjoyable. o yeah and half the time your just watching movies. its a VERY easy A

the class was alot of fun! we watched alot of movies ( good movies ) and study guides are provided for each midterm.

This is from back in the day, when he taught theatre tech, but still Dan is the man. He is a really nice guy and a fun and informative teacher. I would take any class he offered, just so we could hang out!

Funny guy...keeps it real. Real easy class and his lectures are hilarious.

Dan is one of the best teachers I've ever had. He's hillarious and really cares that we learn something. He's a stand up guy

I love Dan. He's a blast to have as a teacher. His stories are great and he makes learning fun. He's also a super cutie pie!

OMG LOVE THIS CLASS. ITS FUN AND SUPER EASY.JUST WATCH MOVIES AND TAKE NOTES. THERE IS A MIDTERM AND ESSAY IN THE CLASS BUT IS VERY EASY TO DO.

wants you to call him DADDY!!!!! lol

the best teacher!!!! super fun! all you do is watch movies, 2 papers, midterm and final!

Dan is the best Professor I've had so far!!! He extremely hilarious!! Just call him DADDY! hahahaha. He likes to wear hawaiin shirts everyday so it makes the class a little happier.

If you make him laugh somehow by telling a joke on a test, you get points haha

Attendance is required, but this class is VERY entertaining. Participation is optional. He is an amazing professor. Super easy class too: 3 papers and 2 exams which he gives you the answers to the day before. Lots of extra credit opportunity as well.

excellent teacher hes very flexable if u cant make it into class he accepts emailed assignments. only thing is u must do yor work hes preety laid-back but if u dotn do the work you will not get a good grade

prof cusses alot. Tests are fairly difficult and he doesnt GIVE you the answers to the test. just hints alot. Subject can get boring at times. funny guy tho. has class favorites.he kinda grades on personality so be outgoing/likable. has GOOD insight on the symoblism in movies. watch 4 movies. write a few papers. ace the class.

He cusses a lot. He is very funny. Tests are okay but if you make a joke on the test, he might give you points. Watch 5 movies and write 3 papers on 3 of the movies about your opinion on it. Can write a 4th paper for extra credit. class is fairly simple.

He cusses like crazy but he's hilarious! He actually makes the subject interesting & you're pretty much never bored. He takes roll, but it's okay because you'll actually want to be there! Watch movies & write easy movie reviews on a few of them & then have exams that he basically gives you the answers to. Easy & hilarious class. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Dan is the man. This class is an easy A and he knows it. He loves teaching this class. Cusses a lot and tells great stories. Watched Falling Down, Gothika, Shakespeare In Love, Borat, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Class is based on attendance, midterm, final, and 3 movie reviews. Can do a 4th review for 10% EC. Easy, laid back, take this class!!!

HE...or better said DADDY...is so great..he cusses like a sailor...but he is the sweetest man...he'll even help you with homwrk in other classes...seriously i wish proffesors were more like him...he is funny as HELL....if ur having a bad day u are guranteed to life...the test are easy..only two...and the assignments...GREAT TEACHER MUST TAKE HIM

best teacher i've ever had

Awesome guy! My sister and I had him for Drama62 and we loved his class. Gonna miss it.

Hilarious professor. Don't take anything he says to heart, and try not to say anything that will leave you vulnerable in class b/c he will be quick to make fun of you. It's all in good fun though, he's a good guy. If you love watching films and writing on them then this is the class for you. The only text was a play. There's extra credit available.

One of the BEST teacher I have yet. He really know his material and is funny as heck. Cusses a bit too much that it can make you a bit uncomfortable if you're not used to it, but one thing for sure, is that you'll enjoy your time in his class. despite his cussing, he's a great teacher. You can always count on him to give you a good laugh.

Love his class! Great Teacher, Very easy!! YOu dont even need to buy a book, you just need a script!!

The best teacher ever! He is hilarious and loves cuss words. His class is super easy and you don't even have to buy a book. I highly recommend you take his class

Hilarious teacher, great class, 4 movies, easy tests as long as you remember the things he talks about, likes to pick on people and cusses a lot! Great class!

He is the most hilarious teacher ever. He keeps everything interesting and his class is always entertaining. He cusses quite a bit, but nonetheless he is an awesome professor. I definitely recommend him. Have fun! :]

This professor is so cool. He always come up with jokes to keep us laughing all day. No homework. Just 1 essay, 2 exams, and attendance. Easy class. If you don't pass this class, you don't belong in college.

One of the funniest teachers I've ever had. He cusses like a sailor and doesn't give a ****. He'll pick on people, but it's all in good fun. Half of the class is basically him telling funny stories. He has study guides that give you all of the answers for the tests. I definitely recommend taking this class.

He is soooo funny! He does cuss alot in class and he doesnt care. Always wears hawaiian shirts or colorful ones. He gives studyguides which he explains, watch movies and only have to write about one, midterm and final which he gives answers to before! Definitly recommend taking this professor!!

This guy is the best professor you will ever have!!!!! Better Enjoy It!!! =)

Best professor I've ever had. He caters to intelligent people who work hard and ask questions, but the lazier you are, or if he sees you texting and talking too much in class, the more he picks on you. Which you deserve! I learned so much and drama isn't my major. He's hilarious and fun. Take this class!!

This class is awesome!!! This is the one class i actually look forward to and wished it never ended. He cusses a lot but doesn't care,has the funniest rules,and share lots of stories. He gives study guides so those are helpful for the midterm and Final. Overall this is a great class.

Great Professor. Extremely funny! class is easy just have to attend class and take notes!

Hands down the best professor at Fresno State. Great class even if you aren't a drama major. Best class I had while at Fresno.

Easiest class I have taken. Go to class, watch 5 movies, take notes from his lectures and youll be great. Full of athletes so that speaks for itself. He likes the F word so dont be offended.. Midterm was a little tough make sure you memorize everything he says...

One of my favorite classes ever. It's true he cusses a lot and he picks on people but it's usually pretty hilarious. Attendance is important you can only miss 3 before it affects your grade but for me I looked forward to going. Midterm was actually a little tough but you just gotta know the study guides and you'll be fine

Very funny teacher! Loved his class but attendance is required. although he has study guides ready for you, i rather take notes. but overall, easy. just go to class.

This guy is awesome. You will laugh if you take this class. Attendance is mandatory but you will want to go. He cusses but it's in a funny way. You watch movies, have study guides provided for you, a film evaluation, a script analysis, a midterm, and a final. Sounds like much but this it's not that hard. All in all, fun class with a fun guy.

Great guy!! Easy A!

Awesome guy! Very easy GE class, I highly recommend it. You will never be bored, he is hilarious. Take notes, I think it's easier. Make sure you have good partners for the script analysis. Overall super easy.

Hysterical class! If you are very sensitive to profanity or vulgar topics, avoid this class, but understand, this professor does not try to offend you, he simply is very funny and makes the topic interesting. I had a lot of fun in this class. Super easy, super fun. Just go to class and you will pass!

If you can't get an A in this class, get out of college.

Great professor!!Funny, helpful, and easy A. There is one midterm and a final. One essay to write, but it's not hard at all. Also one group work we have to do together.

He likes to be called "Daddy" which is wierd but yet funny at the same time! He is hilarious and can basically get away with saying ANYTHING because he is THAT funny. Sometimes its hard to take this professor serious because he is not serious lol I highly recommend Daddy. You will not regret it. It is like a live comedey show FOR FREE! Always ROTFL

He's very funny! Attendance is required! But you won't regret going to class because it's actually fun. Two exams, one paper, and one extra credit paper. Got an A in the class just actually study for the exams and you'll be fine. Exams stumped everybody

He is a great teacher! He may come off as a little inappropriate on the first day, but he is hilarious and a very caring teacher. Takes the time to know students. Attendance is mandatory, he gives you the study guides for each class and goes over 3 very easy exams before test. I would recommend him! Very nice guy.

Professor Dan is a very understandable professor. He made class fun and entertaining. He's easy. All you have to do is study the study guides he gives you and write your 4 page paper to receive an A. He also gives extra credit on exams and in class. There's only 2 exams (midterm and final).

BEST TEACHER EVER! all u need is a script that cost less than $5..i never wanted to miss his class..there wasn't one day where I didn't laugh. I was really sad I wasn't going to have him anymore. just printout study guides and take notes.. 2 tests & 2 papers are super easy!

Amazing. He is so funny but uses profanity a lot . Will help you in any way he can both in and out of classroom problems. Course is easy and as long as you write down the questions he says are going to be on the final- you will be fine! he literally gives you the exact questions and answers as final! You watch movies a lot and discuss history!

This teacher is HILARIOUS! He is a great teacher and you WILL pass the class if you attend everyday. He makes class fun and entertaining by all his jokes and goofiness. You have 2 big test only, the mid-term and final. Not a hard class at all. You also have a group project to do, not hard at all he does the first part with the whole class.

BEST TEACHER AT FRESNO STATE!! You have one mandatory paper, one extra credit assignment, a mid term and a final which he goes over before the exam. There is no reason you should fail, other than laziness

Love this professor, he is so hilarious and also use a lot of profanities just get used to it. He's not a tough grader and also not many works to do in his class. Just do your 4-page film evaluation and study for midterm and final you do fine.

He's one of those professors who genuinely cares about his students and his class is one of the easiest on State. He cusses a lot but it's hilarious though. I never wanted to miss a day. There are only two tests, the midterm and final, and one mandatory essay that you gotta do but they're super easy.

I got into this class on his request (he was a customer at my family's place). He told me the class is just lectures, movies, 1 paper, 2 tests and a script analysis ($6 script). No lies there. He's funny and his lectures make me want to go to class. I recommend him to everyone! *Warning: he curses quite often.

Prof. Carrion is by far my fav teacher. So funny and genuinely cares for each and every student. 1 midterm 1 final, gives you the answers before, literally. 1 paper 4 page film eval, literally what you liked/hated about the film. Extra credit 3 page paper, whole letter grade. Takes roll every class, but trust me, you don't wanna miss his class :)

Dan is the best. His class is pretty easy, he's super funny and intelligent, and is there for you if you need him to be. He does take role daily so make sure you show up, but I don't understand why you wouldn't want to show up. Only gives two tests, but there's lot riding on them, so study up. Only a few essays to write too.

Dan was by far the best class I had last semester. He is hilarious! The guy has some of the best stories and is overall a great teacher. He has 16 study guides the first 8 are the midterm then the last 8 are the final. You watch 4 pretty good movies and you have to pick one and write an easy 4 pg paper. Best drama professor at state!

Prof. Dan a.k.a Daddy is a great professor with hilarious lectures. Trust me, you won't want to miss a single one of his classes! There is a midterm and final (both 30 pts) as well as a 4 pg paper on a movie and a short script analysis, he also offers extra credit. His class is definitely not hard and he is very funny! Easy A if you do the work!!

Professor Carrion is the BEST professor you could ever wish for. He is a character, he is politically incorrect and he makes learning a hilarious yet insightful experience. I would major in drama just to take his courses.

The funniest professor you'll ever have, his lectures are hilarious! 2 papers, 1 midterm and 1 final, go to the class before the exams and he'll tell you all the answer! Really cares for his students too.

By far best professor when it comes to this course. Attendance is somewhat mandatory, better just to show up if you can. Gives you questions to midterm, and final the day before, just have to study answers.

Daddy is awesome! He's hilarious but also knows when to be professional. Just attend class, study the study guides, watch the films, and have fun, you should do fine.

Overall I enjoyed this class there isn't much work but you do have to show up because he takes attendance. 2 exams, 1 script analysis, and 1 movie evaluation. Just show up to class and use your study guides and you'll be good. He's really funny and you'll enjoy lecture even though the daddy thing is a little weird.

Theatre is really boring, but Dan makes it much easier to learn. He integrates his hilarious stories to the lectures which prevents you from falling asleep. There are not many assignments in this class so make sure you study for the 2 exams and do well in order to ace the class.

He is the best professor i have ever had at fresno state. He is funny and really cares about his students. I look forward to going to his class

Dan is by far one of the best professors I've had. His classes are so funny and you actually want to go to class! His midterms are easy because he goes over the study guide with you before the exam and gives away the answers. You just have to study them. I would take Dan again and again if i could.

Dan is by far the best professor I've had so far at State. I honestly never wanted to miss a class. He's so real, and hilarious. Definitely outgoing, genuine and one of a kind! I would recommend this class to everyone, I'd take it again if I could. This class is so fun and so easy just show up, watch the films and the tests are easy!

Dan is by far the most inspirational, caring, and respectful professor I have ever taken. His class is an easy A! Show up to class and remember '"Daddy's Rules". Also, very understanding and respectful towards students.

Probably the best teacher I have ever had. Super funny, really goes into detail with what is on the 2 tests and gives clear instructions on the film evaluation. Really enjoyable class.

This class is so easy and Professor Carrion is hilarious! There are only two exams and if you pay attention in class you should be fine. You have to write two four page essays and he is an easy grader.

One of the best professors I ever had at State so far. He literally kept me awake in class because of his hilarious cursing. He helps students understand the concepts using real-life examples. No homework, but 2 big tests that can make or break your grade. Our class only did one writing: 4 pages of really reflection on a movie. Great Class!

Show up to class to pass. Easy class. He does cuss a lot. He is so funny. Book is needed but it very cheap, less than $10.

best professor you'll ever have. 2 tests and 1 paper. show up and you'll get an A goes over study guide before exams

great teacher. has no chill. funny!!!!!!!!! i honestly look forward to his class. we watch 3 movies and have to write 1 paper for one of them. i recommend writing on the first movie because he really goes over it with great detail. but like i said he has no chill

Dan is probably one of the funniest people you will ever meet! His class was so interesting and fun. I actually wanted to go to class! Aside from being super funny, he is a great professor. He cares about his students' well-being and makes you think.

Does whatever he can to make the class fun and interesting! Curses every other word so if you get offended, dont take his class. Attendance is MANDATORY/taken every day and never cancels class! Gives study guides and reviews them all as lecture in class to prepare for midterm/final. Lots of movies, one 4pg paper, group paper, ExCr paper offered

Class is always interesting, attendance is mandatory. He's a funny professor and as stated in other reviews, yes he cusses a lot. All the movies he shows is interesting and goes over the midterm/final questions before giving it out. Gives extra credit and genuinely cares for the students (even though sometimes he make joke around a lot.)

Prof carrion is amazing. Super easy class and he is really funny and nice.

Dan was a great professor. He was funny but stern when he needed to be. His class was interesting and I would definitely take him again

TAKE HIM!! Easy A class and he's very funny!! you watch films and write 1 evaluation write another one for extra credit if you want. Two tests 30 points each... tells you the exact questions a day before the exam. 1 script analysis with a group... choose your team members wisely!! OVERALL EASY A TAKE HIM FOR THE GE REQUIREMENT

literally the best professor ever. His class is my favorite this sem and probs my favorite of all time. Not a class i didn't laugh or enjoy. He does take role every day but this is that one class you don't wanna miss cus it is actually great. Two tests (mid & final), one paper on a movie we watch, & script analysis done with a group. Easy class!

Best teacher I've had at FSU. Makes class so much fun and is so funny. I look forward to his class every time! Not hard at all, helps you out with anything you need and only gives a couple tests. Definitely going to take his class again if I can

Class is hilarious. Pay attention to the notes and go to the review days and youll pass.

Super funny and makes lectures interesting. You watch five movies, write a short paper on one of them, do one easy group project, and a midterm and final. Easy A.

HE IS CRAZY!! Very funny guy sometimes can come off as a little weird in my opinion but other than that I loved him. I'm not a huge theatre person so lectures could get boring but it's ok he was just so crazy it woke me up a lot of the time. His class is only based on a few things but it was pretty much an easy A as long as you try and do the work.

Hilarious professor. Good guy. Easy class. 2 tests, 1 paper, 1 small group assignment, and 1 extra credit paper. Great choice for a GE course

Funniest professor I've ever had, if you have him as an option for this class TAKE IT. He loves to roast his students which just adds to the entertainment.

Funny and open minded. Don't be offended by his jokes.

Very funny professor. Will do his best to work with you. Only a few assignments graded. Have to show up most of the time and print out study guides to pass. Material is pretty easy if you pay attention half the time

BEST. PROFESSOR. EVER. Such an easy class. No textbook and he basically gives you the answers to the test before you take it. He's also hilarious and loves to pick on his students, so don't get offended by his jokes. I genuinely enjoyed this class so much and would take it 100 more times if I could!!! Definitely recommend.

If you can't take a joke then don't take this class, but I found myself always laughing and having a good time in his, even on my bad days. Attendance is mandatory, but you're going to want to go anyways since his midterm and final has multiple questions on his lectures. Plus you'll miss out on the fun. If I could take him again I would w/o a doubt

Best professor ever! Super Goofy and sweet.

10/10 recommend. Super easy class and a great professor. Tests are on lecture info but he gives study guides which are so helpful. Literally everything is on there. there was only one 5-page paper but it was super easy! Super chill class, no complaints

Took this class back in 2019. Hes amazing! You wont regret it. Makes class enjoyable. His class would be the highlight of my day! Hes amazing as a person and his course is designed to make you laugh. Highly recommend. Attend class and youll pass.

I actually enjoyed going to this class. The lectures were casual yet very informative, and professor was hilarious. Tests and quizzes were easy if you attend class often, and assigned movies were watched in class. I really recommend this class! It was so much fun.

Very funny! If you get offended easily wouldnt recommend makes a lot of jokes that could bd taken bad!

Dan is such a great professor. He teaches well, however if you get easily offended I wouldn't suggest that you enroll in any of his classes. Take good notes because what he teaches is literally what will be word for word on your midterm and final. He picks GREAT movies for us to analyze as well.

Daddy is one of the best professors ever and is someone I wish can teach all my classes. He is funny as hell, makes jokes, and always makes sure to keep things honest. He speaks his mind a lot and is just a great person and professor. You NEED to take him if you can, you will not regret taking Daddy Dan's class!

doesn't mean much but he's the first professor I've given a 5. The class is easy and he is very funny. We watch good films in class and have discussions. He provides study guides for the exams which we go over in class and there is one mandatory paper on one of the 3 required films. There is an credit paper. Definitely take his class

LISTEN UP. I love Daddy Dan, his class was almost never boring and I enjoyed the criteria. BUT be warned the midterm and final are hard, he purposely tries to play games when wording the questions and I feel like the mind games are unnecessary. But I digress, regardless Dan is one of the best professors I have had during my time at State

Dan is a great professor. If you hate attending class you'll for sure don't want to take his class since attendance affects your grade. There are like 3 to 4 assignments only throughout the semester. The only downside is that he doesn't accept online work but only on paper.

Dan is one of the BEST professors I have ever had. there is never a dull class with this man. His assignments are easy as long as you pay attention. Even though it is an easy going class, don't mess around. He WILL call you out. He only teaches in the Spring, so try your best to get Daddy Dan!!!

Freaking love this class and the professor, always feel like I'm at stand-up comedy show every time. But just hope you get a class that will actually laugh at his jokes and talkative, so it will be fun. TAKE NOTE, Study them!!! 2024 spring is his last year or semester of teaching so TAKE HIS CLASS IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE

One of the best professors out there. He always keeps you entertained and makes sure to get a laugh in! I definitely recommend taking him!

Take this class!!! He is such a funny professor and always made me want to come to class, he makes it easy to pass with a good grade as long as you are engaged, which he makes it very easy to stay engaged. I wish I could take his class again.

He is the best professor ever. Every-time I come to his classroom, I am ready to learn new things because his lectures are very entertaining. He is energetic even though he is in his 50's!

Professor Carrion keeps things entertaining in class. The assignments are easy, but the exams can be tricky. unstuck study was super helpful for preparing. Definitely take this class if you can!
