    James corden, if he even counts as a comedian

    100%
    Not a comedian mate.
  • Miranda.
    Close the thread.

    About to post exactly the same
    Ditto.
  • Michael McIntyre or what ever his name is about as funny as the trots

    Out of all the unfunny ones, he's the one you want to thump. Repeatedly. Until he shuts that stupid, smug gob.

    Christ almighty.....the blokes simply trying to make you laugh, ok he's not succeeding but all you wanna do is smash him one....who'd want to be a comedian. A very very tuff profession and certainly not for the faint hearted.
    That's somewhat OTT AA, even if you are trying to be funny.

    You're funny, when wearing your shorts in northern hovels whilst people are wearing scarves and wooly hats.
    The shorts got an airing today as well.
  • Is comedy in this country even exsistant anymore?
    Mostly just liberals spouting thier vitriol.

    They are all funny in some way or another. Don't blame them if you are too slow witted, unworldly, eaten up with jealousy or simply too humourless to understand. I love all comedians for simply trying to make my day brighter.

    Lee Evans - I just don't get it. I also have to wipe my TV down after he is on... So shiny.
    Chris Addison - We get it, you are left wing, hahahahah Tories are shit... Cool.
    Anyone who relies on their background as some ridiculous stereotype, eg people who have every joke as I am gay (One of the Carr's cant remember which), I am Asian (Russell Peters)

    And as I am on that list, more or less every single female comedian is at best, shit at standup, the humour in general relies on the fact they are female rather than that they are funny. They are there to meet a quota in most cases and not because they have any talent. There are a few exceptions to this, but they are the exception

    Stephen Fry - Literally just a diva who likes to throw a tantrum, but like most leftwing loudmouths has been given "national treasure" status meaning he can do no wrong when in reality, he just seems like a bit of a cock who throws his toys out of the pram.

    A lot of these people can be funny on TV shows, but on the stand up circuit are severely lacking.

    Unfortunately a lot of standup is split into two camps. Either deliberately provocative and trying to cause as much offense as possible for the sake of it (Boyle) or so unbelievably left wing and tolerant (most BBC shows). There are a few that fall outside this realm and are genuinely funny but they are few and far inbetween.

    Rich Hall and Jim Jefferies stand out to me as 2 who are exceptionally funny.

    A great example is Charlie Brooker, one of the biggest dickheads when he is trying to be funny on standup, so tedious, but Black Mirror is 10/10.

    Not sure I've ever caught Stephen Fry or Charlie Brooker's stand up tours...

    You seen O Briain live? He's one of the funniest stand ups out there in my view. Surprised me how good he is.

    No don't watch much stand up, just going by tv appearances. He rinses jokes til they're beyond dead which I find irritating.

    Keith Lemon. Not a comedian, just unfunny. Don't know how that character is still going.
