Unfunny comedians

[COYBL25]

Never found French and Saunders that funny.

Not even in Ab Fab ?

Meant them together really.

Vicar of Dibley was great and Ab Fab defo had its time.

 

[The Cowboy]

Great shout. Saw him recently as had always thought he was a clever comic but he was so incredibly unfunny it was painful.

I can't stand Izzard in political mode, didn't even know he was still active as a comedian, but Definite Article and Glorious are two of the greatest stand-up shows ever. Utter genius.

Great in their day though, the Christmas specials are a bit embarrassing now

I can't believe no one has mentioned Frank Skinner.

Never ever has been funny, not even when he did Fantasy Football with the other weapon Badiel

Yeah he was in full preach mode and it was just woeful. He did a three hour set, one hour each in English, French and German and sold tickets for each set individually. It's a pretty cool concept but you just couldn't help feel it was just to show off how intelligent he is! And the bits that were funny he dragged out way too long so that even they became annoying.

The Tories don't like the black comedian... hmmm

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

That Irish bloke in his Mrs Brown role is seriously unfunny.

Spot on, painfully unfunny.

Bishop, Miranda, Millican, and Skinner too as others have mentioned.

Ken Goodwin " settle down now" , call that a catchphrase ??!!, Jimmy Crickett, look at my wellies R & L on the wrong legs , who gives one ??!!. And don't get me started on Jimmy Clitheroe " where's me shirt " , I don't know and neither do I care 50 years later. At least Colin Crompton had that big f off wheel, give order now.

Fantasy Football was incredible. FFS

We have the winner of the thread.

 

[anjelikaferrett]

That is, for some reason, correct imo. Actually Mrs R agrees. We like our comedy, but she cannot stand the female ones. Milligan in particular.

Agree. Victoria Wood is probably the exception that proved the rule. I hate women whose whole act is about being a woman. Which is pretty much all of them.

But he wasn't funny.

The worst was when he got off with a girl in the audience who was about eighteen and then boasted about it the following day. At that point he should've been put down.
