      If you liked him in mock the week and he does the same in stand up…Why don’t you like his stand up? Or was it that you was disappointed that he only did the same things?

      Yeah, it was just because I’d heard it all before. If it was new material then it would have been excellent. His book is a bit meh as well.

      The US version is quite possibly the best sitcom on TV at the moment.

      I concur. I think it has the best and most well written characters of any comedy programme. And I have an unerring affection for Pam.

        Eddie Murphy in the Raw and Delirious routines were some of the finest stand up ever.

        Frankie Boyle nicks most of his material from sickipedia.com

        I cant stand Ricky Gervais either.

          Tommy Trinder was quite funny and Tommy Handley was funny ” Dont forget the diver ” !!
          I am of course being sarcastic as they were c r a p ! In fact none of the old music hall comedians were funny :(

          John Bishop is pretty good for a scouser anyway.

            It may well be down to my uncouth hearing, but I cannot understand a single word the man says. This is the case with most Scousers, mind, but Bishop is just incoherent to extremes.

              Not too keen on Edie Murphy, Actually I don’t like him at all!

              Frankie Boyle, regardless of where his stuff is from he is funny.

              Gervais is awful.

              Who is john Bishop?

              Chris Rock anyone?

                Gotta be more Richard Pryor, without him there wouldn’t even be a Chris Rock or an Eddie Murphy (regardless if you think he’s gash).

                Did you get round to watching Animals then yet?

                  I just find Chris rock funny from what i have seen, but to be fair I havent seen much from him.

                    Pryor, Rock and Murphy are stereotypical black comedians in my view, using comedy in a self-deprecating manner to produce ‘I’m-black-but-funny-too-laughs’. This is mainly Pryor and Rock though, and I do like Richard Pryor purely because of his films with Gene Wilder, whereas Murphy has just eradicated any possible perception of him being funny by coming out with guff like ‘Nutty Professor’, ‘Norbit’ and ‘Meet Dave’. He’s just embarrassing himself now.

                    Has Dylan Moran been mentioned yet? Excellent comic.

                      I agree about the Eddie Murphy bit…All of his films are awful and he is awful in them.. Pisses me off.

                      Wasn’t it Chris Rock in the film Dogma with Jay and Silent Bob…If so it is a great film! :D

                        I haven’t seen that. He was alright in The Longest Yard though; if only it wasn’t the 42nd remake of the same concept.

                          Watch Dogma..It isn’t a recent film but is Awesome!

                          I have it on DVD, just looked and it IS Chris Rock…Good film and he is awesome in it!

                            Ricky Gervais is probably the funniest man around today and he does it by just being himself.His material is weird but it is the way he says things that is funny and his laugh(check his show with karl Pilkington) just cracks me up.
                            The funniest comedian EVER was Dave Allen whose style is a sort of cross between Gervais and Peter Kay.

                              Dogman is a brilliant film. Good nod there Jimmy. Also Eddie Murphy films aren’t so bad Well his latest efforts are pish poor, but I thought the 48 hour movies were quite good. Owd uns though they are.

                                I don’t tend to watch films with him in them to be fair.. Only watched the more recent ones (Norbit, nutty professor etc…All Awful!) …Only watched those because I have been with somebody watching them :)

                                May watch Dogma tonight after pub now you mention it..Nothing good on tele except England … 90210 aint on til tomorrow :(
