Lee Evans....

    I've really tried to like Lee Evans. I've watched his shows on Paramount Comedy 1. I've listened to praise from fans. I've tried watching more shows, but all to no avail.

    I can't warm to his 'humour' at all. Meh, different strokes.

    He is hilarious, saw him at the Olympia in 2005 and haven't laughed as much in a long time but as "beans" said it's different strokes and all that :D

    i don't find him funny at all. it seems to be nothing but "look at me i'm gangly and i can make silly faces".

    One of the very few of the 'top' comedians who's stand up I find completely unfunny. Find him a bit of a one trick pony jumping around the place with that weird accent. I want to give him a spliff, tell him to calm down and tell a joke once in a while. And he's always on Paramount Comedy these days.
    He's much better as a comic actor in fairness to the man.

    Didnt like him at first but watched him on paramount a few times and he's a legend. I think some of the actions he does are excellent I could watch him for hours. I think you've to be in the mood for his gags though, and needs to be watched.

    ^ hilarious. Note to sarcasm. Is his post understandable? Yes. I've seen a lot worse. Get over yourself... You don't happen to like capital letters, eh? Nobody's perfect.
    Back OT. I don't really like Lee Evans... Never really found him to be funny. He acted like a moron on Johnny Woss a while back... Talk about ruining a good show...

    Lee Evans is the complete opposite of funny. Can't stand to watch Paramount at the moment with his ad on all the time.

    i eventually worked out what i think he means. i'm still not sure. and you can hardly compare leaving out capital letters to making up words and leaving out full stops, thereby making it very difficult to find where sentences end.

    and how bout you get over yourself and stop telling people to get over themselves. this is an expression reserved exclusively for 15 year old girls

    Ladies, I can't believe handbags are being swung so early in the evening.
    Did we start on sherry a little early today?
    Do try to maintain some sense of decorum.

    Anyway back on topic...

    Lee Evans always makes me think of Norman Wisdom on speed. Never thought he was funny either.

    Even watched Funny Bones and nope still didn't get beyond mildly amusing in spots.
