TheScarf Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 4 minutes ago, coprolite said: "Stand up comedian" is a subset of "comedian" surely? Likes of Paul Whitehouse, Vic Reeves and Justin Fletcher are all comedians, without doing stand up. l'd say it's subjective. I wouldn't class Limmy and Corden as comedians. And I doubt they would either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not Corden due to a complete absence of anything funny. f**k knows what Limmy is tbh. Intermittently amusing i guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s no surprise that Gervais finds him hilarious. 7 hours ago, SlipperyP said: When did he become a comedian? He's an act created by Gervais. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably is the most irritating out there, but an element of that will be bitterness at how successful he’s been given how unfunny he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been thinking about why i dislike Corden and realised i don't think i've actually seen him do anything since a short lived unsuccessful boy band sitcom in the 90s or 00s. I might have seen him on a sofa on some chat show but everyone comes across like absolute tubes on those. I've concluded it must be his face. It is quite objectionable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Manhattan Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I saw Ardal O'Hanlan do stand up a few years ago and it was pretty dismal, not least because he'd reached the age where a large part of his routine was a woefully unoriginal and contrived take on becoming a parent. (See also Michael McIntyre, John Bishop etc. etc. etc.) On the subject of people who should have stuck to Father Ted / sitcoms, I'm surprised there's been no mention of Graham Linehan. Controversy aside, that man is never a stand up comedian. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
