I don't find anything that Lenny Henry has been in funny.
Not even"Katanga!! Ah-A! Ah-A!!"
?
But since then, nothing. Not a titter.
But he's big on Comic Relief, so can't be all that bad.
Little Britain, although I appreciate a couple of your ideas were quite funny. Once or twice.
Catherine Tate, although I appreciate your one idea was quite funny, love. Once.
Cannon and Ball, they say "Rock on Tommeh", I say "Cock off cock chops"

Indeed. Two perfect examples of how a fairly funny formula was ruined by repeated repetition. Catherine Tate, although I appreciate your one idea was quite funny love. Once.
Comedies should be limited, by law and pain of death, to one series.

Am I going to get flamed for saying I didn't find The Fast Show at all funny?
That's alright, you've also said that Spike Milligan wasn't funny.So you're quite obviously mad.

It's weird, and I'm a complete hypocrite but TFS I just think is absolutely top notch, it survives the repetition, although most of the funniest stuff was not the repeated sketches.Comedies should be limited, by law and pain of death, to one series.
My perception is that TFS seems to be liked by gents, not ladies, the two others mentioned seem to be more equally liked by both.
(I'm a bit loathe that you quote me stating Catherine Tate is "fairly funny" though...)

All comedians are unfunny. Anyone that tries to be funny is unfunny.
That is possibly the most insane thing I have ever read. Don't be so silly. thanks for making my 1000th post a bloody moan!

Why is it silly? Comedians try to be funny, trying to be funny isn't funny, therefore comedians are not funny.
So the most insightful modern philosopher the world has ever produced, who also happened to be a comic, the legendary Bill Hicks wasn't funny?Nor was
Lenny Bruce
Richard Pryor
Billy Connolly
Bill Bailey
And many many many others?
I'm guessing you find someone slipping on a banana skin hilarious?
Little Britain. It's just not funny.
But unfunny comedians? Alan Carr and that smug bd Jimmy Carr..... Both of whom I'd happily run over with my car - then reverse back over them, just to be sure.
Where do the Marx brothers fit in to this - they're funny.
Less funny, however - Karl Marx....
