the odd thing about Norm is that most people just don't get his jokes. I don't think he got through a single News segment without at least one awkward pause where no one laughed (even if the joke was gold). But that's part of what made it so funny. Norm is just Norm, and he's hilarious no matter what he does.
Seriously, Quinn is an unfunny mush mouth who is unfit to host his own tv show. Tough Crowd works despite him, not because of him.Quote:

Chappelle's Show is funnier than anything I have ever seen on tv. It belongs on the list.Quote:

Seriously people, what the fuck? Stop putting Chappelle's Show on your lists. It doesn't belong there, not on a list of the ten best shows of ALL TIME.
That said, though, with more thought, I would actually take it off my list and add Conan O' Brien instead. I took a great hit from the crack pipe before I made my list, you see.

Fair enough. But hey, calling Chappelle's Show the best sketch comedy show ever is not idle praise. It's like calling Nickleback the greatest band in the history of rock; people who know anything about music are going to look at you funny.Quote:

Don't get me wrong, I like Dave Chappelle. He's a good comedian. But he's got a long way to go before he can even come close to matching the greats.
I hear you. Some of skits, though, have been some of the funniest things Ive ever seen on TV: The R Kelly Pee on You video, the Roc-a-Pads, and the Redman toilet bowl cleaner come to mind immediately. Plus, there's classic lines.... "I'm rich, bee-yotch!".
The show is probably too early in its run to put it at, say, ILC, but its oozing potential.
Chappelle is on my list because I look foward to seeing it every week, and if I miss it, I'm pissed. A show that does that definitely deserves a spot on my list. Besides this isn't a "greatest comedy list" anyway.
