Isn't his production company called NedLos? Doesn't seem like he's trying to hide his 'Ned-ness' to me. I've read all the bad stuff (and true it seems) about his originality, but I just have to say that he put on one hell of a show for us when we saw him last year. He arrived to the venue late, so that put he first and second show behind. He was obviously tired, by the time of the second show (which we saw). He was onstage for nearly 2 hours and was hilarious, most of the material was new-ish at the time. He let the audience ask questions at the end. Afterwards he went out and sign swag for well over an hour. Buy stuff, don't buy stuff, get your ticket signed, just get your picture taken, whatever. He was really gracious, and after his Hindu/Indian jokes onstage it was funny (to me) when I came up to get my stuff signed and he looked up and smiled then took a second look at me. That's when he noticed the red bindi on my forehead and how I was dressed and pointed to his forehead then to mine and smiled. So yes I know his theivery, but he gave us a really nice night at a great price ($30 tickets). And so he gets abit of a pass from me now. Now Ron White's show ($65 tickets) was HORRIBLE...and that's another story!
Back on topic tho, other Latino comedians I would like to see are more of Pablo Francisco, Gabrielle Iglesias, and someone who's name I can't ever remember...lol.

Gabriel Iglesias is also hilarious. Carlos is still funny to me but I am very disappointed that he steals from other comics. I was not aware of this at all.

There is a comedian on myspace who blogs about his run in with Carlos that got him fired from his agency. [blue]Joe's Myspace[/blue]

yes, we've been talking about Joe and Carlos' run-in.
I can't stand Joe either, so I couldn't care less about his bitching.

I'm kinda meh on Carlos/Ned, but I haaate Joe Rogan. Honestly, NewsRadio was a long time ago, and his name isn't Phil Hartman so he doesn't get any credit for it anyway. FearFactor was quite possibly the worst thing on television ever. He's not known for his stand-up, so he's just trying to make a name for himself by calling other actor's out for "stealing" jokes. One of his writer's opinionsETA: Why is the color for my link not working?

I hate Carlos Mencia so much. I hated his Comedy Central standup special. I hate the sketches that I have had the misfortune to watch whenever I can't click past them fast enough. I hate that I hear his "DEEdeedee" pseudo-retarded schtick when I forget to mute during the commercials on Comedy Central.
He is working his way steadily up the ladder to being my Most Hated Celebrity. I now hate him more than Tom Arnold and Molly Shannon, but still less than Mel Gibson, Michael Jackson and Tom Cruise.

(Star, gingerly stepping away from Ripley........)
I love Carlos. He seems like a cool guy to hang around.

I think he gets away with saying a lot of racial and stereotypical things that other comedians can't get away with because they are white. So his racial makeup is an issue if he calls himself more ethnic than he is in order to get away with stuff.
And I hate that mentally deficient accent thing he does, it's offensive.
