What! First season was great. I especially like the first episode.

Anyway, we're getting off-topic.

Mr. Bungle 05-28-2012 01:37 PM



I love David Cross. He might be my favourite comedian.

scrabface 05-28-2012 02:21 PM

Mr Bungle

are you Canadians worshiping Jim Carrey?

Bullet Magnet 05-28-2012 04:43 PM

I went off Jim Carrey about the same time he went off vaccination.

They were the writers.
At least in the case of The Young Ones and Bottom.

One of the Young Ones was one of the several writers.

Didn't the stars of Black Adder also wrote most of the lines?

Rowan Atkinson wrote the first series with Richard Curtis. Then from the second onwards it was Curtis and Ben Elton.

Yes, I really am pedantic enough to have gone to Wikipedia to find out the details.

enchilado 05-28-2012 05:08 PM

Indeed yes. That's why the first series was so much worse than the rest.

Steamer_KING 05-28-2012 07:05 PM

I just remembered something. Does anybody remembers "'Allo 'Allo!"?

I remember that it was a comedy show and not a comedian.

Mac Sirloin 05-28-2012 07:16 PM

Can't say I do, but I think everybody remembers Hitler retiring as a bartender.

Hands down he's in my top 3, I'm not sure if I like him or Bob Odenkirk more. On the one hand, Bob's had a hand in pretty much everything I've ever found funny, on the other hand, Tobias.

Mr. Bungle 05-28-2012 07:25 PM

I've never actually seen Bob do stand-up, but I love his character acting/writing in Mr. Show, and his pure comedic relief in Breaking Bad.

But overall I think I prefer David Cross a smidgen more, because, as you said, Tobias.

Mr. Bungle 05-28-2012 07:26 PM

Double post, dammit.

Have some old school Eddie Murphy



Fuck he was funny back then.

Fuck he was funny black then.
Boom. 20% funnier.

MeechMunchie 05-29-2012 04:54 AM

That's horrible. You take that black, Sekto.

Ridg3 05-30-2012 03:14 PM

Dara O'Briain is a pretty funny guy. Ed Byrnes is good as well. The two of them together is sometimes side splitting. Dylan Moran is my favourite though.

Other ones;
Pretty much everyone on the Mock the Week panel. Except a few who are shit.
Lee Evans
Katt Williams
Bill Bailey
Kevin Bloody Wilson.

As long as they're not Stephen Lynch I'll probably find them funny.

MeechMunchie 05-30-2012 03:20 PM

Sean Lock, Ross Noble. And I second Bill Bailey.

Nepsotic 05-30-2012 03:21 PM

Lee Evans and Bill Bailey are not shit! What are you talking about? And since when was Lee Evans on Mock the Week?

EDIT: Oh, I get it. Misread.

Bullet Magnet 05-30-2012 04:00 PM

These guys

Yeah, sorry about that.
I never saw the actors after this show.

I've actually seen him live. Except, and I'm mildly embarrassed to admit it, I had no idea who he was at the time. It was only recently that I happened to see a Youtube video with him doing standup that I realised I was hearing the same material I'd heard back in 2002 and put two and two together.

I dunno if that's a compliment or not...But, was the show good?

It was a compilation show with three standup comedians who had been reasonably successful at the Edinborough Comedy Festival. I can't remember who the other two were or anything about their acts. I only remembered Dara because he had a bit about how ridiculous the millenium celebrations were and discussed the various other calendars around the world. He asked the audience if there were any Jews in, not expecting that there would be a group of about 20.

moxco 06-03-2012 05:38 AM

British comedians are a bit or hit or miss for me. Noel Fielding, Billy Connelly, Robert Webb and David Mitchell I really like. Graham Norton and Jimmy Carr however, are a bit shit.

Nepsotic 06-03-2012 05:43 AM

I like Jimmy Carr, despite his annoying laugh. Theres no comidians that I really dislike, except maybe Crissy Rock, Purely because I watched last years I'm a Celebrity.

Sekto Springs 06-03-2012 09:12 AM

I dislike Dane Cook and Lisa Lampanelli.
I dislike them so very much.

Welcome to the club.

Mr. Bungle 06-03-2012 11:30 AM

I'm pretty sure Dane Cook has more haters than real fans at this point. If not, I weep.

Sekto Springs 06-03-2012 11:34 AM

His Facebook page says differently. He has over 4 million subscribers.

People forget to "unsubscribe", you know? Who am I kidding, the majority is just stupid people and girls that cum when they see him.

Wings of Fire 06-03-2012 02:10 PM

How pleasant.

Nepsotic 06-03-2012 02:38 PM

Can girls cum? I knew they orgasmed, but I thought 'cum' was a term specific to guys.

Ridg3 06-03-2012 02:51 PM

What you on about? Women can't orgasm.

Nepsotic 06-03-2012 03:00 PM

What is their equivalent of it then. You know, when the white stuff comes out the end and you feel really nice.

Ridg3 06-03-2012 03:03 PM

Getting to feel the white stuff come out and watch you feel really nice.

Nepsotic 06-03-2012 03:11 PM

Eww its all gooey... :(

Lee Evans is my favourite comedian.

Yeah, they cum. Or better, they squirt. If you do that to a woman, that's because of one of two things: Or you really could get her maximum pleasure or she just have orgasm after orgasm, even without you doing shit.

Nepsotic 06-03-2012 03:30 PM

...Its because his style is so original.

Sure...

Nepsotic 06-03-2012 03:41 PM

Are you being sarcastic? When he first started, he was unique.

THIS DISCUSSION IS SILLY

MA 06-03-2012 05:30 PM

Nepsotic is a fucking moron. seriously. if you want to talk about how women squirt on your face, make a thread. i'm sure it would explode with activity.
