Last Comic Standing

[Gamplayerx]

Apparantly, this is kind of like american idol, but for comics and is the only thing on tonight.  7 minutes in, it's not funny.

[ReBurn]

It wasn't very funny last season, either.  At least not at first.

[Gamplayerx]

Oh.  I hadn't realized there was a season before.

[Infobahn]

My friend dates the guy that won the season three challenge between season one and two.

[Gamplayerx]

Wait.  There were two seasons before?  This show must really suck if I've never heard any buzz about it before.

[ReBurn]

Yep.  It's been on in the past.  I never thought it got funny until farther along in the season.

[Infobahn]

Three seasons.  I have been a fan.  The third season's showing got cut off of NBC onto Comedy Central & Bravo.

[Gamplayerx]

I think the problem here may be that while bad singers are funny, bad comics aren't.

[ReBurn]

I think you've nailed it.

[Gamplayerx]

And they just had a funny guy!  I seem to have spoken too soon!

[Gamplayerx]

Whoa!  There just just this little guy on there wearing the chick magnet shirt screaming and one of the judge guys said, "Dude, that's the gayest thing I've ever seen."

Cracked me up.

[Alice]

Damn, I meant to watch this.

Info - who is she dating?

Odd.  He was really unfunny.  What the hell was Bill Dwyer doing there?

they are putting some ringers through this season. it's funny to see not all the ringers made it. Pardo is a "bob & tom" comedian, and he didn't make it.

and poor skippy.

[DownSouth]

Poor, poor Skippy.

[Alice]

I miss Todd. 

"There's plenty of food for EVERYONE!"

[Beefy]

What the hell was Bud Dwyer doing there?

I don't know, but I bet it was a total suicide of a performance.

[VikingJuice]

I've seen the chubby Hispanic guy on Comedy Central before and he was entertaining the troops in Iraq.  He was hysterical!!

There was a woman on the show last night from Texas who did the bit about looking like Montgomery Burns naked when she got out of the shower.  She tilted her head and posed and you could almost see what she was talking about.  Too funny.  There were a LOT of duds with only a handful of decent joksters.

[DownSouth]

Was there a pimp in a wheelchair or did I dream that?

[Mr. Ubiquity]

Was there a pimp in a wheelchair or did I dream that?

just a reflection in the mirror.

There was.  There was also woman with a pretty severe lisp making fun of her difficulty and a Cerebral Palsy guy making fun of his.  Both were awfully brave and pretty funny but I think they could offend a lot of people with similar conditions.  They made a bunch of jokes I felt bed about laughing at.
