Gram-O-Phone posted:If there was any justice in the world that nasty smug two-faced lying sack of poo poo would have disappeared from public sight when he was sacked from the Mirror for publishing fake pictures of British soldiers abusing Iraqis. Why the gently caress does he keep getting work?! Are the public really that loving dense? He must have a lot of dirt on people, it's the only explanation.

Mark was already very pissed when he hit that bong, would've been more unrealistic if he didn't whitey. Edit: Speaking of unrealistic portrayals of drug use, did anyone else stay up and watch the Breakfast Club last night? Got about 4 hours sleep because BBC insist on putting classic films on at stupid times. Leyburn fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Sep 21, 2010 |

Armstrong and Miller is loving brilliant and it's a million times better than that Mitchell and Webb shite you all seem to put up with. I'm actually amazed that it's on primetime BBC1, given how filthy some of it is. The sketch they did with the teacher getting pilled up in a club and running into his pupils was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Peter Kay was loving hilarious when he was still a rising star and Phoenix Nights was one of the finest sitcoms of the past 20 years. It needed said. Michael McIntyre is funny as gently caress too. Sorry to have strayed outside the the Stewart Lee/Charlie Brooker/Armando Iannucci bubble of acceptable comedy.

People hate him because he's released the same DVD every Christmas for about 8 years running and not written any new material since he hit the big time, but he was still very funny. I remember seeing his Comedy Store special before I knew who he was and it was hysterical.

I thought it was pretty funny. Wish I hadn't watched his new DVD last week though. Almost every bit of stand up (except the first 10 minutes maybe) were lifted directly from his last tour. Loose Women Iran was the best bit by far.

Some Strange Flea posted:Jimmy Carr has released a DVD in early November every year since 2004. I've watched a few of them, but I gather from this that a lot of his stuff is recycled? I don't know, I've only seen one of Carr's DVDs. They're just similar in that they both do short, punchy gags in a deadpan style and have stupid laughs. Boyle is terrible for reusing the same material all the time, I doubt Jimmy Carr is as bad in that respect.

HauntedRobot posted:I get the feeling he's either blown the first half of his budget falling off the wagon and writing the first thing that came to his mind while hungover, or he's decided he's "too popular" and is deliberately trying to sabotage his own chances of getting on TV ever again. I reckon he's just a lazy bastard. Some of the sketches have been funny, like Loose Women Iran, or the hidden camera one where the guy's mate pretends to have killed a child. Everything about it just screams "That'll do". He's even been reusing gags from Mock The Week, which is just inexcusable.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad posted:Frankie Boyle isn't a good comedian when he's not reacting to other people, because shouting pedophile or oval office or rape aren't punchlines. After bailing out from Mock the Week and complaining the BBC were holding him back, he then gets his own programme on another channel, where in the series premiere he covers such up-to-date topics as the Winter Olympics, which happened 11 months ago, the John Leslie sexual assault allegations, which happened 7 years ago, The Green Mile which was released in 1999 and then recycles material from the programme that was "holding him back". So you're saying that you can't joke about anything that's older than 6 months? I mean I see what you're getting at, he reuses far too much old material, but he's allowed to do sketches about The Green Mile if he wants, that alone doesn't make him poo poo. I gotta disagree with the statement that he relies on shock value alone too. He just tells jokes he finds funny and doesn't let good taste get in the way of a funny gag. He still tells plenty of jokes that aren't shocking in any way (hello Mr cheese!), although admittedly that hasn't been true for Tramadol Nights so far, where he does seem to think that shock value alone will stand in for a punch line.

SeanBeansShako posted:I think Flatscan pretty much stated he could do better, he just needs to swallow some of his ego and let a producer use his professionalism to give him criticism on what is good and what is bollocks. The thing is, with some serious quality control applied to the sketches and some new stand up material Tramadol Nights could actually be very good.

Hoops posted:I dunno, in my opinion Only Fools and Horses has dated horribly, has never made me laugh even once and is looked upon with nostalgia-tinted glasses by a shockingly high number of people as some great British sitcom institution. If they aired it now it would get slaughtered in the press. I'll take people's word for it that it was hilarious in its day but that style of comedy is long gone now and personally it does nothing for me. Madness, every single word!
