Comedy isn’t politically correct anymore and therefore is sexist and racist... bon voyage CC!

I could've watched Andy Daily in review for a hundred years.

Crank Yankers is one of those shows which is fun in small doses.

You binge that and it wears on you pretty quickly.


What I am curious about is if the talent they get for the new series matches the old series, which had Jimmy Kimmel, Wanda Sykes, Tracy Morgan, Sarah Silverman, Dane Cook, David Allan Grier, etc.

Kimmel and Carolla are involved although I don't know if Kimmel will do calls anymore because he might be too famous. The only thing I'm sure is done is Special Ed.

I thought Nathan ended Nathan For You. Maybe he was just putting a positive spin on it, but he sounded sincere about wanting to do something else. I think it was getting challenging to find business owners willing to go along with him who weren't total sad-case eccentrics themselves.

Completely forgot about Ugly Americans, it shouldn’t have been cancelled after 2 seasons

And it’s not just Comedy Central either. Several networks seem to just want to show marathons of the same shows everyday. TV Land is Andy Griffith all morning, then Gunsmoke, and Everybody Loves Raymond at night. USA might as well be The Law and Order SVU or NCIS daytime network. Since NBCUniversal got the rights for Harry Potter it’s all that seems to be on SyFy, we just thought ABC Family/Freeform was running it into the ground with their Harry Potter weekends once a month

Do people actually watch Trevor Noah? His jokes seem super fricking lame even if you agree with his views

His standup is pretty funny. Hard to watch him on the daily show simply because of the shoes he has to fill. Just seems off.

Corporate is one of the best shows I have seen in years...the fact that it is not promoted more or talked about more on these sites or anything in general is just wrong.

Crank Yankers should be good but I doubt David Alan Grier comes back because he and Carolla don't get along anymore. DAG ended his friendship with Aceman because of his "rhetoric" according to Dr Drew.

Noah doesn’t have the biting sarcasm Stewart had

They also just seem to go for the low hanging fruit Trump jokes constantly. We get it.

The corespondents is where it’s been lacking for a long time though.

Seems like they run through a batch a year now but it's just impossible to replicate those old correspondents cast of Carell, Colbert, Corddry, and Helms.
