So, ignoring all the douchebaggery in this thread, I caught the first episode of Dane Cook's Tourgasm on HBO last night. Wow, that was possibly the least funniest thing I've ever seen. Him and his friends are no funnier than the average college boy retards. Also, that one guy in the bunch is a pussy bitch. Maybe seeing a full routine would give me a better impression, but somehow I doubt it.

Also, LAWL @ SpoDaddy for being a Bushite chode who forces himself to laugh at Dennis Miller's blatant right-wing pandering, lukewarm comedy. His last HBO special was so lame that he could barely get an audience that PAID TO SEE HIS BULLSHIT to laugh. Even Maher can get the people who come to his shows to laugh with his equally blatant lefty pandering and Kate Moss jokes.

And this, as usual, is the part where SpoDaddy shows he has no fucking idea what he's talking about. Cross may well be a leftist, whatever, but Carlin has maintained for YEARS that he is an ANARCHIST and damn proud of it, too. Of course, a myopic idiot like you WOULD try and connect those two together.

1. Dennis Miller jumped the shark after MNF.
2. George Carlin isnt as funny as he once was, but hes still way better than Miller.
3. David Cross rules as Russ Lieber on Colbert Report.
4. SpoDaddy is braindead imo.

Watch Lucky Louie for the laughs. On right after Entourage iirc.

Judging a routine on 5 second clips is pretty dumb any way you slice it. Jay Davis stinks, both on stage and in life, but I've definately laughed at the other three. Dane's comedy is more in the delivery than the material (which is a mix of random non-sequiturs and jokes he stole from other comics) and Bob Kelly's about as sophomoric as it gets, but like I said, I've laughed at them for sure.

Most of the time the crowds in TV specials didn't pay to see the comic, actually. The station drums up a crowd somehow. Sometimes the comic will get to give free passes to fans first so there are real fans there, but a lot of times it's random people that have never heard of the comic before. Odd way of doing things, but that's the way it goes.

"Bushite chode", is that the best you can do with someone who doesn't agree with your politics? When did I say Dennis Miller was a great comedian anyway? Once again you don't know jack shit about what you're talking about (they weren't a paid audience and there were no awkward pauses in laughter that I recall, but then again I wasn't out to hate on the guy).

You cited Bill Maher and yet apparently you don't watch his show (what a shock, you talking shit about something you know nothing about). Just a couple months ago he had George Carlin on, and Carlin spent the entire second half of the show talking inane shit about Bush, Iraq, Afganistan, capitalism, the scourge of the earth that is the United States, the evils of people owning guns, etc (all the usual radical liberal stuff). He's been trashing on Republicans and giving Democrats a pass on everything since 1980 you dumbass. He "maintains" that he's an "ANARCHIST" so that excuses morons like you from exercising actual thought? It's called a routine you tool.

Bill O'Reilly maintains that he's a moderate independant, either you believe him or you're a myopic idiot according to your own "logic". Either way, you're a waste of time and you're improperly using words that are too big for you, do us all a favor and go away.

I watched that the other night, I think the idea of a completely uncensored sitcom is interesting. I was lukewarm on it but it has potential, it's hard to judge a sitcom by the pilot.

I was operating on the assumption that they were showing the best bits (what else would you show?). I don't think it's dumb at all to just give my reaction to what I saw while adding the cavet that it was in no way comprehensive.

Very true, I think it'll just get better from here on out.

You are operating on an incorrect assumption, regarding the best bits. They have a whole season to stretch the routines out over. They aren't going to blow the best stuff in the first episode. And it was more the fact that you didn't think seeing more would change your opinion that I found presumptious.
