Uncomedic comedians
Since my last couple of posts went down like a lead balloon, I thought I'd try and redeem myself with this subject!

The whole point about comedians is that they are supposed to be funny. It seems to me that the only thing that seems to end up polluting the airwaves are idiots that try and stand out... and do. But for all the wrong reasons.

Let me explain:

Alan Carr - Pure evil. I don't care how funny a gay orgy is. I do not want to hear about it on national television. It's nothing to do with the fact that he's as camp as a row of tents, he's just not funny!

Alan Davies - Not as contemptible as Alan Carr, but he never has been funny, and never will be. How he ever got onto QI I will never know, but at least he's shown himself up to be the dimwitted imbecile that I thought he was beforehand.

As already been mentioned. Ben Elton - Used to think he was quite good, but now I've learned the error of my ways. Can you be a left wing comedian and then go on to perfom at the Royal Variety Performance?... Completely sold out a long time ago. The other thing that really annoys me with him is his books. They build and build and build, and deflate quicker than a burst balloon - complete rubbish.

However, the big prize... The award for the least funny uncomedic comedian must go to Ricky Gervais. Maybe I'm being a bit thick, but I just do not get what he's all about. I hated the office, and don't think he's done anything of note... he's completely cringeworthy.
