Comedy is at an all time low
« on: October 19, 2003, 05:41:56 PM »
Nothing funny is on TV or in the theaters anymore.  Most of TV is filled with utter crap in the way of reality TV, and the only shows that try to be funny...aren\'t.  The current sitcoms love to point out that white people and black/hispanic/asian people are different...wow, I\'m pretty sure that has been done before.  And some of the formerly funny shows such as SNL, and my beloved Simpsons are teh suck now.  SNL is just pathetic now, I don\'t even know who 90% of the cast is.  About the only funny things on tv are on the Comedy Channel (Daily Show, Tough Crowd, The Chappel show and South Park)

It\'s truely the dark ages of comedy, somebody bring back Family Guy!

Daily show, south park, crank yankers (Sorta) is about it.  Will and Grace is pretty good, but I only watch bits and pieces when my honey is watching it.

Family guy was one of the funniest shows ever, but obviously Ratings > quality, so no more family guy...

In Living Color was the best,  we need more shows like it,  Mad TV is a joke compared to ILC

America\'s Funniest Home Video still has some funny stuff.  Nothing like laughing at other people\'s mistakes and misery that brings up my day.  ;)

My favorite channel at the moment is Turner Classic Movies.  I swithc back and forth between Disc/TLC/History/Animal Planet.  Favorite show is Conan O\'Brien.  He and Letterman are the funniest things on the tube now imo.

I dont watch TV often

All I watch though is: Discover channels (Monster Garage, Monster house, American Choppers), TLC (Junkyard Mega Wars, occasional shitty movie), SciFi (I hate the shows on it though, Just the movies are good), and History (Anything interesting).

well to go off topic a bit, Discovery is my most watched channel, love American Chopper.

Rya, I like AFV but I can\'t watch it as I get pissed off that the funniest clips are never in the running for the prize at the end.  It\'s always a baby doing something repulsive.

I totally agree with you, theomen!  My mom (of all people) feels the same way about those prize winners on AFV as wel.  They always pick the one with the young child over the pet that clearer should have taken home the money.  I mean I know it\'s a family show and all, but seriously!  There are videos that are way better than their nominees.
