Unfunny comedians
Jump to: Newest in thread
I think humour is such a personal thing that no comedian can be funny to everyone.
I don't laugh much at Michael McIntyre but I can laugh like a drain at Micky Flanagan talking about him and his mate having Delhi belly even after watching it three times. |

"Peter Kay, I mean he;s mildly entertaining but how he gets thelevel of success he does is beyond me"
100% agree
Though I did like Phoenix , then the sheeple caught on and he thought he was funny - he went too far |

I thought his stand up was a bit meh, however I thought Phoenix Nights was brilliant. |

Keith Lemon.
The only thing I;ve ever seen less funny than Keith Lemon is Keith Lemon with Paddy McGuiness which is a whole new level of unfunny annoying fuckers |

Yeah that's my thoughts. Great writer and comedy actor but not as funny as he thinks. Ricky Gervais is exactly the same |

"Saw Milton Jones live last year and sadly unimpressed "
I really like Milton Jones but I know where you’re coming from. I think he can be hilarious in small doses, like 5 or 10 minutes. But when I saw his live DV I was disappointed too, too samey! |

"Sarah Milligan, definitely one of those I've decided to be funny so you must also types."
She told me off for being rude on Twitter. I suggested (in a polite way) that she might want to pop into Bravissimo. She took the hump! 
You’re a comedian love... get a thicker skin! 
Incidentally, she took my advice. |

"Jimmy Carr - utter twat
Russell Howard - annoying twat
Ricky Gervais - fucking TWAT!
"
Russell Howard , twat

Can't agree about Peter Kay being on the list - really funny guy, phoenix nights, car share, stand up.....
But, the following "superstars" of comedy, jeez, not a laugh between them:
Michael McIntyre
Russell Brand
Russell Howard
John Bishop
And there's some cockney twat who's about 40,comes on stage with a baseball cap to the side and wears shorts I think.... Don't know his name, apparently famous, twat...

Jimmy Carr - maybe karma will bite, he will get in a bad car crash, then see if he sill thinks disability is funny. Cheap jokes. Prick.
Michael McIntyre - Smug punchable face lol
Frankie Boyle - Ugh
Come to think of it, the whole smug tone of shows like Have I Got News For You in general.
I prefer a good impressionist :D |

Humour is hugely subjective isn’t it? I agree with lots of the above but disagree with others. Some mentioned I find hilarious!
I guess it would be boring if we all found same things funny! |

The list is endless as we appear to be living in a golden age for the unfunny comedian. This lot are about as funny as a sandpaper dildo...
Katherine Ryan
Roisin Conaty
Stephen K. Amos
Andi Osho
Dara O Briain
Keith Lemon
Russell Kane
Josh Widdicombe
Gina Yashere
Adam Hills
Lenny Henry |

Hate that Miranda !"

I never found Roy chubby brown funny, or Bernard manning.
Didn’t get the appeal.
And although a “comedy” and not a comedian, I do feel like giving a special shout out to mrs browns boys. How anyone finds it funny I’ll never know |

"As a rule, any comedian who resorts to disability jokes is an instant turn off for me (Frankie Boyle and Jim Davison for instance). "
Depends on the context, joke and how it’s told.
Ruby Wax did a whole stand up set on Mental Disability and it was extremely funny.
She performed it at dozens of Hospitals in the uk for mental illness ( ie to the patients and staff). Everyone loved it.
Most not all people with a disability take the Micky out of it.
BTW Ruby Wax has a mental disability.

"Ardal O'Hanlon - thought he was great as Dougal in Father Ted, but his stand up leaves a lot to be desired. but he didn't write father Ted "
Exactly my point, he played the part well but he was only funny because he didn't write it. |

What a silly point of view
They are professionals not performing monkeys
I’m sure if you stopped you doctor in Tescos and asked him to have a look st your bad back he’d tell you to make an appointment at his surgery. |

I don`t think that apart from trailers I`ve ever seen any more than one minute of this guy`s performance. Even Through The Keyhole has been reduced to total ridicule although most people could have done better than Lloyd Grossman! Shame the only one who hasn`t is Rick Lemon! |

I don’t get Lee Evans (sorry Ads!) there is a Canadian one that is normally on all the quiz shows and just does one liners, I don’t find him funny at all.
