    I don't find it particularly funny. It's too mild for me.

    Hector O' fecking heoghoghain... or however the hell you spell it :mad:

    All the stupid Irish lads who still think they are in their 20's when really they are almost 50!!!

    (see above) plus, Neil Delamare, PJ Galagher... etc.



    These are three of my favourites :D
    Only fools and Horses.

    Jimmy Carr.

    Graham Norton.

    Russell Howard ... BBC golden boy- totally unfunny.

    He's the sort of guy you'd find funny when you were 12. Mmmm... is that his appeal?

    Lee Evans and Russell Howard.

    I reckon Rubberbandits and The Viper from Hardy Bucks are hilarious!

    Stand up wise - I don't know of any female comedians that are funny.

    I think Rhod Gilbert, Frankie Boyle, Bernie Mac (R.I.P. :( ) are class.

    Jimmy Carr is brilliant!

    I wish Bo Selecta (pre season 3) came back :(

    I like a bit of well timed slap-stick but I don't like toilet humour.

    How about this for the slap-stick dislikers?



    No?

    Ah but isn't this kind of taking the piss out of slapstick? The thing that's supposedly so funny about slapstick is that the person who's victim to the wallop with the frying pan or kick up the arse is that they get up and leave unscathed (grrrr.....stupid....makes me angry even thinking about it). The bottom fellas have essentially murdered someone with exaggerated slapstick violence showing what would actually happen if we all carried on in crrrrazy zany slapstick way in real life.

    That wasn't an example of slapstick. Next please?

    That show on RTE where they dress 'celebs' up like Bo Selecta and send them out on the streets of Dublin. Oh and that Dublin guy who does 'How's your neighbour' or whatever it's called.

    Frankie Boyle. He's offensive which I normally don't mind but he's also witless. You can't be witless and offensive as a comedian. That just makes you an arsehole.

    Neil Delaware. Please, just stop.

    Agree with the rest too, but mainly scrubs.
    Never understood why all my friends liked it so much, in fact. In general I hate everything on comedy central.

    I love I.T. Crowd but I didn't think that episode was particularly funny.. As in, was grand, probably cracked a smile! But not as good compared to some of the other ones!
