Did you hear the responces he got from the audience at the comedy awards? Never heard someone boo'd as much. Plus, he's an awful actor.

his stand up, have to admit is funny though, but stop with the emmies jokes... needs new material

You on about Jimmy Carr, Daws? Don't know if he wears giggs mind you, his name sake Alan Carr (Sunday Night Project) does though.

Frankie Boyle is one of the best "new-comers" IMHO.

He doesn't give a f*ck what he jokes about. He'd have been banned on here LONG ago!

I dunno, considering his podcasts and audiobooks are the most subscribed comedy series ever, worldwide. As for the booing I haven't seen it but what I would say is the fact he has pretty much broken America single handedly (plus Steve Merchant) with his own work has to show his talent is warranted.

Btu he cant act! He almost ruined stardust. He always said he would never sell out, he is biggest sell out i know. Lee Evans broke America years ago, as did Eddie Izzard, everyone does, but not everyone is such a t!t about it.
sorry, can't stand the bloke.
(just my opinion, in minority i know)

Ricky does rehash too much in his stand-up, but he is a brilliant at making tv funny. Its true that he does have a limited range though, so I think he should just produce or direct or write or create tv shows from now on and then occasionally do a stand up tour

Peter Kay , Bill bailey , Jimmy Carr , Alan Carr , Frankie Boyle and that Howard guy on mock the week are the guys i cant help but laugh at present at the moment .

Billy Connolly used to think was brilliant and Mike Reid as well

If anyone gets the chance listen to Eddie Murphy's Delirious, best stand up I've ever heard.

Cants stand the fella..he annoys me in way words cant describe!

Forgot about this thread !

Chubby Brown is like a WUM. You either take offence by what he says or you just laugh at him. Many things he says are very sensitive, but thats how he gets his audience. You either agree with him or find him very ignorant. Or another way, you like his humour or you dont. I like the fact that he just blurts out what a majority are thinking in a humorous way. Ignorant yes, but it is funny in that many people think that way and hits a nerve.
