Comediens You Don't Find Funny

[AJS]

Not a big fan of Little Britain at all.

Russell Brand is just not funny, simple as that.

Jimmy Carr dosen't appeal to me either.

I do enjoy Frankie Boyle, Rhod Gilbert and Dara O'Briain.

I think Billy Connelly is loosing it, the richer and more detatched from his roots he becomes, the originality and humour is disappearing.

This is very true. I also think it affects most comedians who become successful.

To me, the best comedy is the anecdotal, "you couldnt make it up" type of stories/jokes that has its roots in stuff that happens when you are with your mates, your colleagues or in some gathering with "normal people". It is far easier for us to relate to funny stories from those scenarios than it is to have some story 'translated' into the real world from a formerly funny and talented comedian's now pampered and out of touch life.

Billy connolly is a good example, Chris Rock, Robin Williams, and Jim Carrey would be others .... I am sure the list is endless !

[kiltarlity]

Vic Reeves not funny at all !!

Al Murray (The Pub landlord) good!

Lee Evans comic genius... !!

[Yngwie]

Omid Djalili built a career on a couple of very funny jokes that play on the Iran/terrorism connection, but has proved to have nothing further to add.

Billy Connolly has not been remotely funny in the last 20 years but was great before then.

I find Jimmy Carr to be one of the funniest around today. And Jerry Sadowitz is a sick comedy legend.

[FortressICT]

I agree, Little Britain is a shocking programme.

[Glen Mhor]

I agree, Little Britain is a shocking programme.

Aye, you're dead right there - shockingly bad and just not funny at all.

[MissICT]

Ricky Gervais!!!!!!!!!!!! <_<

I Can't satand him!

who Finds him funny?

[tm4tj]

I agree, that Gervais fellow struggles badly without a script, embarrassing to be honest.

[SMEE]

Ricky Gervais!!!!!!!!!!!! :splat03:

I Can't satand him!

who Finds him funny?

I havent much seen him in his stand up routine....but as a writer, i think his stuff is excellent, every bit as good as the "classics" such as Fawlty Towers, Blackadder etc etc

Also...i am with Scotty about the anecdotal material. Lots of us can relate to it.

[stevico1]

I like Jimmy Carr, for me the worst is Vic Reeves never heard anything funny come out of the man's mouth

[ICTFCkev]

Ricky Gervais is s**t IMO. Not just at stand up, but his sitcoms were p!sh aswell.

Lee Evans is class, but you can't beat Frankie Boyle.. B)

Went with a large group of friends to see French and Saunders here in Auckland on Friday Night. None of us were really fans of them but they were on and it was something to do.

Over the two hours of the show I reckon we must have laughed once. By two thirds the way through I was genuinely falling asleep. Totally unfunny. Concerning thing was - about a third of the people in the audience were rolling in the aisles throughout most of the show!!??!!

The main comedian that I find very unfunny and fail to see the point of is Gordon Brown.

[Heilandee]

Sad to see a comic hero of yesteryear come across as a total P*i*k, Ronnie Corbett playing golf with Colin Montgomerie on "Made in Scotland" was as cringeworthy as anything i've seen in a long time, if this pair were meant to be promoting Scotland, i fear for the country :)

[Renegade]

Jimmy Carr is just boring IMO saw him on TV the other night and he was nothing special at all. Alan Davies is quite good on QI but he's another one who's stand-up stuff is nothing special, same goes for Bill Bailey who just isn't funny. And lastly, even though it's at TV programme I'm going to have to nominate Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps. It has to be one of the worst TV programmes I've ever seen. Not remotely funny at all.

[Connie.Orr]

Micheal MacIntyre says he read somewhere that he looks like Pierce Brosnan, which obviously he was pleased about -however I think he looks very, very like Ronnie Corbet. Neither of whom are funny imho.

I watched QI on either Thursday or Friday night and I have never laughted so much at any programme!

I was not full of the 'spirit' so it was the content of the show that hit the spot.

Mr Fry definately played second fiddle to his guests.

Wonderful.
