Actually.. you're maybe right. It was maybe a play rather than a stand up show

He's a bitter, bigotted idiot and thats me being polite

Ohh, Omid Djhalili too! [waits for shaun to correct be on the spelling]

Yip.. Complete arsehole!

Kevin Bridges
Patrick Kielty
Rich Hall

Oh I love Rich Hall.. Just looking at his grumpy face makes me laugh!

Jimmy Carr isn't funny in the slightest, his laugh is annoying and his jokes on 8/10 Cats are a disgrace.

That show needs Jason Manford and Sean Locke - 2 Fantastic Comedians, Manford in Particular.


Russel Kane, How he won an award for, what was it Best British Comedian? Is a travesty.
He's not that funny - I like him on ITV2 on IAC but that's it.


Who else, oh good Jenny Eclaire :rolleyes:

Jimmy Carr is hilarious.:joker:

Oh dear, lets hope there is no truth to the rumour that she is the next face of the BB eviction show.

Only person I cant stand who has been mentioned so far is Mr Unfunny himself James Corden.

Are you joking?? She's got as much on screen presence and charisma as a tree!

Russell Kane (somebody shoot him in the face!!)
Jack Whitehall
Patrick Kielty
James Corden
Lee Evans
Lee Mack
Al Murray
Omid Djalili
Michael McIntyre
Joe Pasquale
Kevin Bridges (fifth-rate Frankie Boyle wannabe, can't stand him)
John Bishop
Dane Cook

Comedians that don't annoy quite as much, but are still not funny:

Jason Manford
Ed Byrne
Dara O'Brien
Peter Kay
Sarah Millican
Russell Brand (these days anyway)
Stephen K. Amos
Jimmy Carr
Rich Hall

Interestingly, in light of the untalented non-entities above, I have revised my opinion of Jo Brand, who I used to be big critic of. She actually seems like a pretty good comedienne now with plummeting standards brought in by observational comedy. Come to think of it, I really enjoy her material now.

The woman on 10 oclock live is terrible that being said i would defo give her a bit of the LK magic

Patrick Kielty is as funny as the Holocaust.

Is Kevin Bridges only 24 - he looks like one of the living dead.

Lauren Laverne used to go to the school round to corner from mine. She wasn't so bad as a presenter before she got into comedy (which she sucks at). I used to think of her as Fearne Cotton's less annoying twin sister.

Yup, it flopped miserably. He is only back in the UK because the Labour government got voted out. Fingers crossed he now goes back to Dubai never to return. :hugesmile:

Sarah Silverman is awful, her entire act consists of exploiting the fact she's female and Jewish, she's vulgar. I don't really watch comedians that often, I don't really know many names.

Three pages before someone mentions Patrick Kielty. Jim Davidson is a ******, all the others mentioned have their moments but Kielty has never made me laugh ever.

agreed re: Kielty

I wouldn't call that exploitation. She is just turning her personality up to eleven like virtually every comedian does.

If you don't like the content that's fair enough. I don't either. But it's no different to Brand exploiting the fact that he has a cock or Hick's exploitation of the views he had.

Isin't stand up automatically exploitation of self and ones views if you want to bring the E word into it?

On the topic of Hicks I'll throw Denis Leary's name in the hat. The guy is a Diet Hicks. A less talented, unoriginal hack who ripped off Bill's entire act.

I think the only one I can think of who's guilty of using themselves for humour too much is Jo Brand. She's fat and ugly, didn't you know.

Point taken. Unlike Silverman there's no real point behind Jo Brand's self flogging.

Her act revolves around her gender and religion, which I find really stale. I prefer comedians who joke about current affairs and things other than themselves, while self deprecation is always welcomed, an entire act devoted to it isn't my cup of tea. I just find her to be really crass and over the top, maybe her humour doesn't translate over to the UK, she's just always been a comedienne who's stuck out in my mind as someone I don't find funny.

I agree. I still wouldn't call it exploitation though. She's just using it as a platform to point out cultural stereotypes and bigotry by pretending to endorse them in most of her act.
