It'll probably suck, like most reality shows.

What happened to that Asian dude from the first one, anyway?

 

[StrikerObi]

Thanks for the reminder Belfast! I'll be watching this and then going out to see a punk rock band tonight (Rehasher if anyone cares).

Edit: WTF NBC Please don't turn this into American Idol. I don't want to see bad comics blasted for the first few shows. Do it like the first with the audience. It was funny that way.

 

[Belfast]

Well, if you liked the first one, this one is probably about the same. But it does seem more Idolish right now than the original.

I love the first one. By the way Dave Mordal was fucking robbed. He was easily the funniest guy on the show.

Dat Phan more like MARGRET CHO am I rite?

 

[StrikerObi]

Haha they totally picked that chick because she's a stripper.

Also ANT take a hint you're not funny.

I think Ralphie May was the funniest on the show, Dat Phan was definately in the lower half of the ten that made it to the finals. Mordal was very funny, though.

 

[Belfast]

Yeah, Dat Phan didn't really deserve the win. He had sob story and that's why he won.

Its kinda weird, because a lot of the people getting "accepted" so far are comics I already know of and have seen them on Comedy Central either doing their routines or on Tough Crowd.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Ant is funny. I thought he should have made it in the house last year instead of a few that did.

I really hope Dimitri Martin shows up. He's fucking hilarious. Sorta like Mitch Hedberg only in additon to the jokes (which show up at random like Mitch's) he also does some wacky media stuff like songs and art.

 

[StrikerObi]

ANT made that same joke last year.

 

[Belfast]

Dimitri's great! And my Dad's company just had Kathleen Madigan do her routine at some business thing they had this past week.


Edit: So far, I've seen KM, Tod Glass, and Pablo Fransisco already. There were a couple others I thought I recognized, but I dunno.

 

[StrikerObi]

At this moment right now, unless Dimitri Martin shows up in another city, I am throwing all my eggs in the basket labled "Pablo Francisco." The man is funny incarnate.

 

[Mister Zimbu]

Crap.

That means ANT's gonna be on the next episode too.

God I hate gay comedians.

 

[Archaix]

No less than three of these people have had a Comedy Central Presents... show, and many more have been on premium blend.

Same thing happened last year, Rich Vos had already filmed his half hour special for Comedy Central and he got in the finals.

And, yeah, Ant did the same joke last year and it wasn't funny then either

 

[Belfast]

I hate a lot of gay comics, too, except maybe Scott Thompson and Mario Cantone.

 

[Mister Zimbu]

Ah, Scott Thompson. The exception to my rule as well.

The problem is that ALL of their acts revolve around their being gay. And it's NOT FUNNY.

 

[Teknopathetic]

I'm pretty much going for Pablo Francisco, too. If Dane Cook or Daniel Tosh were going to be in it, I'd be hard pressed between them and Pablo. But since I only see Pablo, GO PABLO.

Funny motherfucker, that Pablo.

 

[Belfast]

If Dane Cook shows up, ITS ON!!!

 

[Mister Zimbu]

My pick is the dancing hitler guy from the promo.

 

[Teknopathetic]

I don't think having Dane Cook on the show would be entirely fair.

 

[Belfast]

Isn't Dane Cook living in NY, though? Maybe he won't show up.

 

[Belfast]

:lol at Buck Star.

nm, I thought they started in NY, but it was LA. I wasn't paying attention. Dane could still show up.

 

[StrikerObi]

Go Will Durst! Any friend of Mordal is a friend of mine.

Edit: Oh shit Vlad is fucking great.

 

[Belfast]

Durst could make it, I think.

 

[Teknopathetic]

and he did.

 

[StrikerObi]

and he did.

So did Vlad!!!

 

[Belfast]

Those 3 were all good choices, I thought.

 

[Teknopathetic]

Fucking Buck Star!

 

[StrikerObi]

The problem with these Dallas comics is that I think most of them will only be funny in Texas. But I guess it's been long enough, we could use another Jeff Foxworthy.

Also that Arkansas/Mexico guy is a fucking riot. YEE-HAW!

Edit: YEE-HAW guy was John Wessling right?

Edit 2: Paul was quite funny.

 

[Teknopathetic]

No John Wessling was the guy who talked about the scars from his dad. Paul was pretty funny, too. The rest...yeah. That Arkansas/Texas wall guy is a dick.

(from arkansas)

 

[Belfast]

No, Yee-haw guy was the bald dude sitting in the front. I agree he was pretty funny, but also like you mentioned, I don't think they picked him because his humor would chiefly work in Texas. He probably wouldn't have the weight or material to take him to the rest of the country.

Wessling was the guy who was talking about his scars.

I felt the choices were good, but it does suck they can only take 2.

Damn, you've got the attention span of a fish...with ADD! har har! I'm funnier than some of these peoples!

Anyway.

John Wessling was the guy who was talking about his scars. Based on the ten-twenty seconds or so of each comic, I think they chose the right two from Texas.

I'm using this thread for two reasons
1) Talk about the show
2) Post a lot to boost my count

The scar guy was ok.

 

[Teknopathetic]

FUCKING BUCK STAR AGAIN.

 

[StrikerObi]

THE LEGEND OF BUCK STAR!

 

[Belfast]

Haha, Robert Kelly.

 

[StrikerObi]

Start of the Tough Crowd Roll Call:

Robert Kelly

 

[Archaix]

I kind of wish they would have given Buck Star a spot just so he could see that a crowd doesn't like him either

 

[Belfast]

Geez, and Tom Cotter (Kotter?)

 

[StrikerObi]

I kind of wish they would have given Buck Star a spot just so he could see that a crowd doesn't like him either

They're waiting for the last city, just to tease him.

 

[Belfast]

Now DC Benny.

Well, it IS New York....

 

[Archaix]

if jessica kirson advances i will cry.

there are far too many good comics for her to get a spot.

 

[Teknopathetic]

That last guy was pretty funny. "We got coke in the back--whoooaaaaaa slow down."

 

[Belfast]

Agreed. SHE MUST NOT ADVANCE!

 

[BoboBrazil]

That last guys drug joke was great.

 

[Archaix]

That last guy was pretty funny. "We got coke in the back--whoooaaaaaa slow down."

I've seen that guy too...I watch far too much comedy central.

 

[Archaix]

DAMMIT! GOD GOD DAMMIT!

They invited one of the most painfully unfunny comics here!

 

[BoboBrazil]

Kirson is soooo annoying. She reminds me of a fatter Rosie O'donnell on speed.

 

[Belfast]

Robert Kelly should've gotten Kirson's spot. They invited a lot of people, but were too liberal in their choices in NY. :\
