Worst Comedian Ever

[Duncer]

I've just had to watch John Bishop on the telly, mainly because I'm so fundamentally lazy that I haven't reached for the remote control to change channels after the England game, but that's not the point. I want to know if there has ever been a worse comedian than this buffooon? To put things in perspective, I have had diseases that are funnier.

Also up there in the unfunny stakes....

Michael McIntyre
Alan Carr
Dara O'Brien

Each to their own, Duncer - I like Bishop (watching him now). McIntyre and O'Briain, but I can't stand

Alan Carr
Russell Brand
Frankie Boyle

I disagree, I love Michael McIntyre.
Well, each to his own!

[excelsior-1]

don't like him . his accent is far too overpowering

[TheWinner]

snap, boxtops!

[HowardKennitby]

never could get into Stan Boardman. Jimmy Tarbuck was a bit wearing unless in small doses.

[Ann]

We love Michael McIntyre and Tim Vine but can't stand Alan Carr, Russell Brand, Frankie Boyle.

[Spotty Dog]

You've just named the four most popular comedians on television at the moment. Maybe it's a problem you have??

[gness]

Exactly as Boxy. I find people who say Dara OBriain is unfunny worrying.

[Duncer]

It gets worse - Eammon Holmes doing "Blockbuster"!!!!!!!!!

I agree with the dreadfulness of Russell Bland, but I don't really consider him a comedian. Frankie Boyle fell into his own trap years ago insofar as, when you shock, you have to go a stage further each time, and then you reach a point where you are unacceptable. He is a vile creature who became unacceptable a long time ago.

[Duncer]

Being popular on telly is no defence for awfulness folks.

I have no problem, other than the fantastic comedians stuck in the club circuit who never get an even break. Dara is smugness personified.

[boxtops]

Hear hear

[humbersloop]

I do miss Bill Hicks..

[sir.prize]

And that Norton guy is like a virus.

[thenry]

Just flick through the channels till you get to 'Banged Up Abroad' - you'll soon see the funny side of Johnny Bishop !

[gness]

Dara is far from smug. Funny and very, very clever but I do understand that he can make some folk uncomfortable because of that.

[Hopkirk]

Lenny Henry just isn't funny

[Duncer]

Live acts I have thoroughly enjoyed recently, and I know it is all subject ot personal taste folks, are Emo Phillips, Tom Stade and Ed Byrne.

I still have Bishop on the telly and I'm starting to think that suppurating piles would be more amusing.

[ummmm]

I don't find John Bishop remotely funny.

I like Dara...but that might have been from yonks ago when he was only doing standup.

I think Frankie Boyle is hilarious.

Jimmy Carr is also very funny.

[boxtops]

we'll agree to differ, then, B00!

[Jemisa]

No, by far the worst is 'Lee Evans'
I Like Michael Macintire & Jimmy Carr.
