What's going on there?

 

 

 

 

Re: Bill Hicks. I appreciate what he did, but he never made me laugh once

 

Re: Harry Hill. I saw his stand up routine when he came on the scene a few years back. Absolutely hilarious. But his recent light entertainment slant, whilst still funny, is pretty tame

Did anyone else think it was a little bit weird when watching the Borat and Graham Norton bit knowing there was a whole load of little kids in the front row of the audience?

 

I know none of them would have understood what was going on, but still, every time Graham made a rude joke he even mentioned the fact the children were all there.

Sorry to go back to top comedians bit, but the Jim Davidson bit just underlined what a spooner he is - best joke they could find was something like... 'You should see what I'm earning for this show, unbelievable, I'm minted. And all those starving Africans....ah well, f%$k 'em.' Whole place burst into laughter. He has sold 5 million DVDs. Thats not even 'witty' political incorrectness/racism. Or is it just me?

 

I really like Bill Hicks, but I enjoy reading the books of his stuff more than his live show for some reason.

Harry Hill - A better comedian than Bill Hicks.

 

I'd still much rather watch Harry Hill 24/7 for the rest of my life than sit through one episode of The Catherine Tate Show.

 

Ahhh....20 perfect reasons not to own a TV set and 10 folk I've never heard of before.... I was beginning to wonder if I was missing out by not owning a set, but now I know I'm definitely not.

with broadband and youtube etc you dont need a TV no more.

Youtube = The Future Of Televisoin

 

Bill Hicks is the by far the best comedian - he makes Connolly look like a clown at a birthday party
