You should definitely seek it out. It's a little work of genius, tucked away from most people.

I can't understand what people actually find funny about Lee Evans, pulling stupid faces and sweating is all he seems to do you sound like a very funny person with a great sense of humor, not
Yeah, I don't get him either i suppose your type of comedy is amy childs saying the word shut up

My pleasure, although I'm just the guy that just takes potshots at other fm's constantly, so if you could keep things like this off the forum, I'd appreciate it. :joker:
What series are you up to now? Has Ron become your favourite character yet?

Just started S4 this morning :laugh: And yeah, easily. I do admire both Tammis though. And I've finally started to like Tom. Leslie of course is a babe... don't care too much for Ann, Chris or Ben though.
The episode they go hunting's been my favourite so far. When Donna tackles Leslie to the ground for smashing her Mercedes' window :love:

I don't really watch a lot of stand-up comedy.
But I do invest in Russell Brand and Alan Carr's DVD's if they do tours.

You've nearly caught up completely then. I think this series (4) is about 12-15 episodes in.
Tom has a bigger role this series, and you should check out his stand up (Aziz Ansari).

It's such an amazing show, that it's a shame more people don't know about it.
I think Ron Swanson is my favourite character in a comedy show ever.

yeah the most recent ep. was 18. I've downloaded all of them though

I don't even know what you mean by that, but to be honest watching paint dry would be funnier than Lee Evans
