DaWolfey posted:Miranda wins against The Trip and Grandmas House. On the plus side, award for Peter Capaldi. And Inbetweeners got best comedy rather than Miranda too. Also Grandma's House is poo poo because Simon Amstell can't act. And I think part of the problem with 10 o'clock live is that so many shows nowadays are pretty satirical. Every stand up comedian does jokes about satire, even Graham Norton, Alan Carr and Paul O'Grady are going on stage and saying "Aren't the Tories cunts?". We don't need a Daily Show, because everything on TV makes fun of politics.

DaWolfey posted:loving YES Some glimpses of hope for British television at least. Seriously on Miranda Show winning have the Judges ever watched any good British comedy made from the sixties until now? Do they watch Television at all? Did they have to pick something or lose a relative to Assassination? we'll never know  .

Oh yeah, I should've really deleted the bit about Britain being funnier. I just meant "how did she win the award?" Good news for Newswipe fans though, the awards show retains some credibility.

Because I'm perfectly willing to believe that something sensible did at some point come out of his mouth. e: Miranda Hart wins the people's choice award. Britain, what is wrong with you? This is when you realise that the comedy tastes of the country are actually very different from what we might believe they are living inside our bubble. It's like collecting vinyl.

Did we all miss some kind of secret comedy show or something where Miranda proved that she was the funniest person in the UK?

He said Charlie should go back to being an outsider reviewing tv/news and games on his couch with his clock on the wall and not a celebrity with new hair and a blue peter wife. (He said it jokingly of course, but it's still true). The people have spoken and they want Miranda Hart.

Actually, that almost sums up my sentiments too (drat him). The real Charlie Brooker is an unmarried, lonely misanthrope like me, not happily married to an attractive Blue Peter presenter. e: And now that creepy dancing baby commercial is on. Hell, I'm so depressed, I'm going to bed. Actually, no I'm not, I'm going to eat this muffin instead. Gram-O-Phone fucked around with this message at 00:10 on Jan 23, 2011 |

Comedy is still such a male-oriented landscape that when a show like Miranda turns up that women like more than men, people respond strangely. It's really not that bad. It might not be a goon favourite but it earned and grew it's audeince. If the British Comedy Awards proved anything it's that 2010 was a very very very thin year for TV comedy. I'm suprised they didn't create a new category for Best Appearance at The Apollo or on A Roadshow or Best Panel Guest since that seems to be the way comedy is going at the moment.

Kin posted:I'm aware of that, the problem is that the segment on her never really insinuated that link at all. It was just a generic "Palin is crazy, haw haw haw" segment. I think you'll find that they're called Younglings so we don't have to have the line "He killed all the children" and "He murdered all the children."

DaWolfey posted:Miranda wins against The Trip and Grandmas House. I'm not even sure I would classify The Trip as "comedy", come to think of it. The point is if Miranda got good viewing figures, and made three or four million people giggle once or twice on a saturday night, then I'll accept the argument that it is the most successful comedy in the category.

Hoops posted:Both The Trip and Grandma's House are much smarter and sophisticated comedy then Miranda *than, not then. The idea isn't that it's successful though. Or at least it shouldn't be. Millions of people watched Everybody Loves Raymond and it doesn't change the fact that it's both lazy and awful. They should be basing their awards on things that are groundbreaking, or at least intelligent.
