once again, sadowitz is overlooked.

no justice.

Right...cause he's all over our screens isnt he!

It's a miracle that he EVER got onto our screens
Sadowitz needs to be recognized as the purest comedien of all time, nothing is off limits to him which may seem bad, but while he offends everyone, he discriminates against no one. A brave brave comedic genius too easily overlook due to his offensiveness.

He's basically Frankie Boyle in a Marty Feldman outfit.

Harry Hill's acceptance was the best. Left those berks from Essex utterly bemused

Who the fk is the blond wker 'Oh, shut up'. THAT explains why there are so many odd votes.
I mean, can you imagine him voting for 'Screenwipe' or HIGNFY?

Someone can be st and still be popular.
Cheryl Cole is a ste singer, but a great brand. As such she sells.
That doesn't mean she's any good.

Popularity must not be mixed up with talent.

Jordan is popular, she has no discernible talent.
Her book was a best seller, that doesn't mean it was good.

See where I'm coming from with this?

So essentially you are suggesting people are watching a sitcom every week but they're not laughing at it?

Your analogy isn't valid - comedy is far more black and white than music and literature. Something is either funny or it isn't. You're also comparing huge publicity machines with a TV show that has succeeded entirely on its own merits.

Genuinely bad sitcoms always die. See ITV for examples.

Nonsense. Firstly, Cole can sing. She may not be "great" but she didnt get through on Pop Idol for no reason. That said....she doesnt need to be a great singer. She is a musical entertainer and is very, very good at it. People go to her concerts to see/hear stuff that entertains them. That may be the dance/singing/tunes/set, etc. Saying she is a rubbish singer is pointless, you may as well say Beckham is rubbish footballer because his headers are weak.

MM is even simpler, no one goes to see MM because they like the skip he does....or his nice shirt - they go because he makes them laugh. If millions of people are laughing at a comic.....how on earth can he be "st"

I never said MM was 'st'. I said he was a tt.
I did say Miranda is st, and it is. Sticking to my guns on this one.

No defence is going to stand up while claiming Cheryle Cole can sing.

Amazing! All these comments about Miranda but none about Russell Brand being awarded for his 'Outstanding contribution to Comedy.'

On a side note, who was the rather tasty blonde woman who gave the award to The Inbetweeners?

Just mindbendingly unfunny. She MUST be related to someone at the BBC. They've been kissing her ass all day, just heard Steve Wright say how she's just naturally funny. As someone said earlier, she basically falls over and looks ugly.

Don't write utter tosh. MM is still st even if he sells out the O2, Cheryl Cole is crap no matter how many rubbish shows she stars in. Why?
Because the average mouthbreather that watches and enjoys these people wouldn't know good comedy or musical talent if it raped them.

Ask them about Bill Hicks, Doug Stanhope, Richard Prior etc and they would just look at you and dribble.
These are the same people who will say that Frankie Boyle is racist and read and complain to the Daily Racist
Saying that Cheryl Cole is talented for her contribution to music?? I realise that the top 40 is wk now but come on, have a word with yourself.

Unfortunatly a lot of the real talent is now dead, thanks to having drunk or drugged their way around the comedy / music clubs learning their trade, learning and improving their act.

The only reason that MM has a career is because there is little else out there, he's still st.
Bovine Britain has it's nice, safe cute little comedian....oh joy of joys.

Nah, that's just elitist bile. Good comedy doesn't have to be satirical, political or edgy, it just has to be funny.

To be honest I'm getting a bit tired of people thinking they're cool just because they've watched a few Bill Hicks skits on YouTube.

Agree.....complete tosh.

I like Hicks, Kitson, Rock, Lee, C.K ...... and MM. To say you can sell millions of tickets and DVDs by relying on idiots is staggeringly naive/stupid.

Don't get me started on Hicks.

Has anyone ever seen Victoria Wood and Miranda in the same room at the same time?
No!
You heard it here first.

Oddly enough I just logged in to post how poor I thought he was, just woefully unfunny. Then again I've always thought him a waste of space.
