Last Comic Standing

[polygal]

I can't get mad at the audience for picking Josh Blue when the producers put through both April Macie and Joey Gay. Josh's drunk tank joke made me laugh, which is more than I can say for the other two.

I read on the Interweb that April Macie is Gary Gulman's (LCS 2) girlfriend. Shenanigans!

Well, that solves the mystery as to why she was put through. Ridiculous. My mailman is funnier than her and I've never heard him speak a word.

Thank GOD that Theo and his affected speech didn't make it. Maybe his schtick appeals to all the drunks who participate in the RW/RR challenges, but from my sofa, I could hear the crickets chirping.

Thank dog that "Bitch, go make me breakfast because your body produces eggs and milk" guy didn't get through. There is a bit of justice in this world.

That's the Road Rules guy. And yes, if you're schtick is going to be sexism, at least be new and interesting about. Women should cook because we have eggs and milk? Oy vey.

Whatever happened to Gary Gulman? I thought he was pretty funny.

I don't know why I get so into these crap reality shows. Nothing ever comes of any of the winners. I get all invested in the drama like the winner is going to be HUGE and a month after the show wraps you never hear of any of them.

I thought April Macie was awful, not funny at all, and I couldn't believe it when she got through. So many of them were funnier than her. Putting on your pants with pliers because they're too small isn't funny or original.

I knew Josh Blue was going to make it to the house, and he was pretty funny last night, but I didn't think he was worthy of the People's Choice. But considering I only agreed with two of the final choices, what do I know?

This show has to be in the running for worst COMEDY SHOW EVER! I hate to say it, because I like Kathy Griffin (a little) and Jay Mohr is hilarious...but this show ranks up there with American Dad as a replacement for sleeping pills. Always has...Where is Dat Phan now anyway--Just not funny. Never has been.

I miss Jay Mohr. I loved what he said to Phyllis Diller last year during the roast. She laughed at one of his jokes in her usual Phyllis Diller laugh, and Jay goes, "Yeah, thanks very much for that. I think I just heard about a dozen car alarms go off in Brentwood." And the bit he did about his baby son turning into a fat Marlon Brando type gangster was hilarious!

If someone didn't tell me I never would have known Anthony Clark is a comedian. He's flat and boring as a host and there's no sign of a sense of humour or wit. How did he get the job?

I got the feeling watching the show that it was heavily edited. The audience responses were off, the laughs were added in. The celebrity "judges" were barely heard from. It just looked like a real hack job.

The comedians must have been picked by the producers for the dramatic dynamic they could bring to the house instead of talent. I really don't see the point in pretending it's a competition to get into the house.

Anyone looking for comics from past seasons (i.e. Gary Gulman) check out MySpace. It's huge with comics in the music section because they can put up video of their act. Every comic in the world is on MySpace.

Jensational, I am right with you about Josh Blue. Dude is Cousin Geri version 2.0 and he's going to go very far on sympathy votes. That said, I hope he wins.

The biggest scam is Bob Read acting like he's never seen some of these people before. He's fricking managed some of these comics and in the first round of auditions he's all "I like your stuff" like he hasn't heard their act a thousand times.

This season they wanted to cast the house, like The Real World, so it's all about the different types. Funny doesn't really matter. They want the house to vibe. That's why the pregnant girl goes through, just to see how they can milk that (pun intended).

I felt bad that Jim Wiggins didn't make it this year, either. I like him-he's crusty.
