Frankly Boyle - find his material horrific and he once did a conference set for our work place and walked off after 10 mins as no one laughed at anything he said

Al Murray - used to find him amusing, went to see him live and he has no other material than what you see on tv. Find him one dimensional which gets boring really fast

I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt as in they definitely have ‘their time’ and it takes bottle to do it in front of any audience.

But once that shelf life has expired time to move on.

Like Peter Kay I didn’t find it really funny initially as it was a carbon copy of people from near Bolton id experienced myself - but some of his programs are genius.

"Ricky Gervais - Who ever told him he was Funny ? As I cant stand the guy !!! ??"

Not seen his stand up and although the Office was funny in parts, I did find it overrated.

However, Derek, Extras and especially After Life were absolutely brilliant. My best friend always disliked RG but watched After Life as he fancies Roisin Conaty. Even he admits its a great show and since then has watched Derek too.

Try After Life, it will have you laughing one moment and crying the next. Its brilliant and watch out for when RG visits his psychiatrist.

After Life was one of the best things I've ever watched. I found it difficult to believe that Ricky Gervais hadn't experienced what he was writing about.

"I absolutely fucking hate Jason Manford. I link him to being a comedian very very loosely "

We’ve got a great story about Manford.

A few years ago we went to the London palladium to see “an audience with Al Pacino.” Amazing evening, but anyway, before hand we stood outside milling around as you do. Saw loads of celebs with their friends and partners. All as excited as we were. James Caan from dragons den. Justin Bieber. Richard Curtis. All happy to chat and pose for pics etc.

And then along came Jason Manford. Bodyguard each side of him and sunglasses on. Arms out in front of him like he was doing a bad Elvis impression. He shooed away both the people who said hello to him and went into the pub opposite- The Argyll Arms. Obviously a legend in his own mind.

"Ricky Gervais. Knob

What?

It’s all horses for courses with comedians. I went to see RG last week

Punches down and masquerades it as "challenging" people through comedy. Thinks he's way more clever than he actually is. Plus he does that annoying thing where he'll tall and edgy joke and go "oh shut up, c'mon" before the audience has a chance to react. Try letting a joke land instea did telling the audience how to react!"

The guy literally took the piss out of every Hollywood big shot in front of them and you think he punches down? He punches in all directions. If you watch his shows fully, you will notice that he makes fun of all types of people. As Jimmy Carr would put it - Equal opportunities offender

He really doesn’t do any of those things. At all "

Having seen a couple of his stand ups, he absolutely does

Just because he does one thing, doesn't mean he doesn't do the other. And he can do it all he wants, the thread is about who we don't find funny and I don't find him funny.

I agree he has more humour than a lot of the others do.

Just because he did one type of comedy that you don't like a few times, it doesn't make all his jokes unfunny either. Of course, you can find him unfunny. It's your right. But the reason you gave for it isn't logical.

I said I don't like him because he punches down and because of that, I can't find the rest of his stuff funny. How is that not a logical reason? I have a brand of humour I like and you sure as shit don't get to tell me why I can't find something funny.

Worst for me is Frankie Boyle. Not comedy at all.

Best comedian I've seen has to be Ken Dodd. Over 3 hours of proper belly laughs, didn't do a blue joke or offend anyone all night. Class.

Hard to say. Used to say Joe Pasquale to this sort of question but he's a nice chap and once said something so random I could barely breathe.

I don't like anyone who tries.to be so edgy it makes them look like a c*nt, if that helps

I think a lot of comedians work well in a panel show setting, but when I've seen bits of their stand up they fall a bit flat

Heaven knows how I ever had the time to watch the few I did, back in the distant past.

Hardly any of those names mentioned mean anything to me and I can say with certainty that I won't be seeking any of them out.

Loving the telly free life. No intention of ever resuming the culture!

Every comedian makes terrible jokes once in awhile. Doesn't make them objectively terrible. I pointed out that punching down is not his goal. He makes fun of everyone.


"

Well I didn't tell you that. But this explains why you don't like Ricky Gervais's joke.

Where on earth did I say he was objectively terrible? I explained so damn clearly why I didn't find him funny and you're jumping in here telling me why my opinion is wrong. I don't care what his goal is, making fun of everyone means EVERYONE and that includes punching down which I don't like. Why is that so hard for you to understand?
