tbondrage99 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I love this show, I really do. Much like many other people here I liked Dat the very first time they showed him, each and every time after that it was stupid because it was the same thing every single time. Anyone think the show seemed different tonight without The Buck Star Show? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Tino Standard 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I'm super pissed that Pablo Francisco didn't make it. I didn't see his set tonight, but I've seen his Comedy Central special a few times and I've heard other material of his in clips online. There's NO F'N WAY that all 10 of the people they selected from that group were better. What a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Wildbomb 4:20 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 Out of the highlights they showed, they pretty much pegged him into an ethnic joke corner. He did the Latin singer joke, which was absofuckinglutely hilarious. He also started to get into the Movie Preview Voice, but that was after his set was up. It wasn't as great as his Comedy Central special, by far, but he was better than five of the people that they wound up taking. Especially the women. God they were almost exclusively brutal.

Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 Remember near the end of the episode when they showed the audience booing right before the commercial break, and told us they'd show us "the bad?" What was that? They never aired any act with the audience reacting like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm reading the recaps, and I'm shocked - SHOCKED I say - that a panel with Colin Quinn AND Rich Vos on it moved Jim Norton into the next round.

dpac 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I like the idea of this show, but I think it is B.S. for established comedians to be on. This should be a show for a person to breakthrough, many have already had thier chance and blown it. That one dude is on Tough Crowd almost every night, it is not like he is hurting for money and needs this. Someone before compared this like Styles being on Tough Enough, I think it is more like Honkey Tonk Man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jimbo Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I am dying to see Jim Norton get to the house and go apeshit at the people. ....unfortunately, his total disgust with pretty much everyone will keep him from it unless NBC wants total chaos, but it should be funny to see him commentate on the whole thing afterwards...

Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 My problem with the first season was that they brought it down to Ralphie May and Dat Phan who were both very limited in their jokes. Dat Phan was mostly about being Asian and Ralphie May was mostly about being fat. I like that they picked Dat over Ralphie, it's just that 2 or 3 of the other guys were much funnier. Tess always came off to me as being just as limited as Dat and even less funny. Perhaps charismatic or something, but not funny. Rich and Dave were the two best and I wish they would've been the final two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stripper Girl was pretty good but she didn't make it either. I may be the minority but I dislike Ant's set, he was ok last year..he's too repetetive now.

Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2004 The celebrity judge thing seems to be a fraud, since the producers just pick who they want to be in the house, regardless. Drew Carey and Brett Butler said they felt their opinions didn't really matter, which you can see when they're on next week's episode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

starvenger 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2004 Oh my, that Kirson person is BRUTAL. WHY was she picked to go on. WHY? She can't even pronounce "mature"! Which one was that? I think that the 5 that went on probably deserved it. Not sure what Carey and Butler were bitching about. Dan had a chance, but I think that his "I've done this joke before" line killed him. The funny thing is that this is almost Joe Schmo-ish (or Peter Engel-ish) in the casting. You've got the comedian who's paid their dues, the bitch, the black guy, the gay guy and the pretty boy. So I suppose Jim Norton will make it as "the bitter guy"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jimbo Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Ugh, fuck that shit with a long pointy stick. Dan got screwed. Butler and Carey are in fucking tears, he get a standing ovation, and he doesn't get in? Fuck you NBC for not liking him because he's just a normal poor white guy comic. So what if he doesn't dance around like a dumbshit attention whoring fairy like Todd Glass, this is about comedy and he was leaps ahead of everyone else, including London, who was good, but not as good as his performance last week even. Fuck Ant for taking his palce. Yay for Ant, you're gay and you're dad is watching. Whoopdee fucking doo, you're a talentless hack who gets over on cheesy, unfunny jokes. Eat a fucking bullet. Ah well, I hope Jay London or Boddin win. They were great tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Jim Wiggins and Dan Naturman should have EASILY made it in over Jay London and Todd Glass. Of course, Jay London is tight with Jay Mohr, and Todd Glass..well, he's just an obnoxious child. That's his schtick. The only two left that I like are Alonzo and John Heffron. This "competition" (har, har) is missing Dan Adhoot, Monty Hoffman, Dan Naturman, Jim Norton (although it's not their fault), Pablo Fransisco and Paul Varghese. Not all of them should have made it in, but they could have made it over some of the duds now living in the house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Glass is obviously in there for his "off the stage" persona. Jay London, I can see though. One liner guys are always kinda fun. The other three were deserving enough. What's Norton involved in though that would bump him from the competition? I gotta say though, that perhaps Carey and Butler were a bit too full of themselves in thinking that they and they alone were responsible for moving the comedians on. Note that Anthony Clark and Tess were not featured in complaining about things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2004 I bet Norton and Glass will stay in the house the longest since they will be the trouble makers causing havoc on fellow comics. A show without heels would be boring so......how many stupid gay jokes will they come up with and will they make Ant cry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jimbo Report post Posted June 17, 2004 Norton isn't in it. He wasn't even in the competition last night because of network contractual problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
