I think they should put birth control in the concessions at Jeff Dunham shows. People who pay to see that man do stand-up shouldn't be allowed to procreate.

No Amy Schumer on page 1? I'm disappointed in you OT.

I would imagine going to a Jeff Dunham show would be like going to a monster truck rally at Lamar Dixon expo center.

Watched a stand-up routine, specifically to see why CC chose him for the show. Wow is he bad.

John Stewart actually picked him as his replacement.

Wow. John Stewart likes unfunny comedians. Or.. perhaps this was similar to Saban telling LSU to hire Houston Nutt in late-2004.

Way worse.

Even the intellectually enlightened can take joy in seeing some cars get crushed by a massive machine. That's entertainment in it's rawest form.

I feel like Jeff Dunham is a running joke on the world. Like he's intentionally trying to not be funny just to see who actually still laughs and pays to see him. Its so, so, so, so, so bad.

ETA:

And of course we have a Jeff Dunham fan downvoter in the OT

Dave Chappelle was the absolute master of racial humor. That was the basis of his show and that show was fricking hysterical.

Any of these new SJW comedians are about as funny as leukemia

The daily show should have been buried when Stewart called it quits. How Noah still has a show every night baffles me, and I side with the guy on a lot of issues.

His scream at you type of comedy was terrible.


Screaming aside, his material was absolutely hilarious. I saw him live from the 5th row in 1987.

BTW, he died in a head on collision within hours of my first child being born.

I saw kevin hart at the river center. His opening act was funnier. I didn’t laugh at him once.

Without a doubt Jimmy Kimmel and Trevor Noah. Colbert might be funny if you hate Trump but they are all hacks imo

Bill Hicks never really appealed to me. I'll probably get some hate because he's a legend but he's just not for me.

Eddie Murphy and Patrice Oneal were also masters of the racial comedy craft. It's always too much of a crutch for black comedians which is why I typically don't like it.

Yeah, he's really bad. His delivery was terrible. Much better as a writer.
