    Sarah Silverman. You're not funny. You're sort of a bit hot. This is let down by you trying to be funny. You're not bloody funny. Die.

    Women seem to be able to be funny actresses, but never stand-ups

    Ya McSavage is the worst of the worst, a paragraph from wikipedia
    David is generally disliked by the Irish public. Those who have seen him perform (either in public or one of his inexplicable television appearances) and those who have had the misfortune to meet him in person, have often described him as a deeply unpleasant character. It has been said that, in both public and private, he uses bullying tactics and a hugely misinformed definition of humour to disguise the fact that he is a profoundly insecure individual who suffers from a complete lack of social skills.

    who says wikipedia isn't accurate lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭MayMay


    Ed Byrne, Lee Evans.

    And I used to really like Jack Dee but don't rate him anymore. Some comedians need to realise that they've had their day and aren't wanted anymore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    Brendan "How's your Wibbly Wobbly Wonder "0'Carroll

    +1billion.

    Is it permissible to call him a cúnt? Hope so, cause he is.

    I like Pauline McGlynn as Mrs Doyle too, but it's not stand up....


    Why aren't there funny women stand ups?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    Harry Hill, not remotely funny. I don't get it, be funny.

    Also Ardal O'Hanlon and Dave McSavage.

    McSavage's father is Fianna Fáil politician David Andrews, and his brother is Fianna Fáil politician Barry Andrews. I've often said Dave should have given up comedy and formed a musical group with his family. He could play guitar while his dad could go on the fiddle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 550 ✭✭✭Teg Veece


    Dara O'Briain? The guy is hilarious. Definitely Ireland's most talented comedian.

    I agree with Tommy Tiernan. Shouting does not make you funnier.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,613 ✭✭✭✭Clare Bear


    I kind of feel sorry for Ed Byrne, he knows everyone hates him but he suffers on. Give up Ed!

    I can't stand Brendan O'Carroll and Harry Hill. Unfunny muppets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭Sabre0001


    Most female comedians (I do like Nina Conti but after seeing YouTube clips of her, I see that she doesn't change her act :( )

    Ed Byrne - Fine on The Panel at times but any stand-up gig has been awful!

    And definately agree with Brendan O'Carroll / (Mrs. Brown) - Amazing how cross-dressing would be a sin but yet old people like him/her/it.........

    🤪



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,787 ✭✭✭prospect


    I can't beleive Tommy Tiernan, Dara O'Briain & Billy Connelly are mentioned... These guys are all brilliant comedians.

    However:
    Ed Byrne, Brendan O'Carroll, Andrew Maxwell, Lee Evans, The fat baldy english landlord bloke, Des Bishop and Patrick Kielty are all terrible terrible comedians.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,166 ✭✭✭enda1


    The tides are turning against Tommy but I still think he's damn funny!

    Fully agree with the general consensus of Ed Byrne and women in general not being funny.

    My addition -> Ruben

    He's just an aquired taste its really always 50/50 when I see him
    I've spoken to him many times and been out for drinks with him he's an alright bloke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    he's an alright bloke.

    Actually he's not ... he's a ****.

    He acts like he loves being controvercial but really it just takes less effort to be hated than admired and he's a lazy prick.

    Harry Hill almost the exact opposite of comedy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,640 ✭✭✭Gillie


    Ed Byrne, Ed Byrne and Ed Byrne.

    QFT!
    Not funny at all IMO...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    Either people will agree 100% with me or wont know who he is ..... I wish I didnt know .... Paul Tylak!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Noopti


    I know who he is and 100% disagree. Well maybe not 100%, around 50%. ;)

    He is not that bad.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,869 ✭✭✭Mahatma coat

    All of the above.

    I think that all of them would be regarded as unfunny by 75% of the population as would Ed Byrne. He doesn't really annoy me that much and I've never paid to see his gigs so he's just meh to me.


    As for Tommy or Dara or Jimmy Carr they might not be to everybodies taste but they have a large groundswell of support. I personnally like TT and Dara not sold on Jimmy Carr yet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭Doodee


    That Female Jew thats been on Paramount lately.

    Dear lord, who the hell thinks shes funny?
    Shes about as funny as cancer


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭arghh


    Billy connolly stopped being funny 20 years ago his only thing now is curse curse curse to get laughs.Saw Tommy Tiernan on TV once with Jordan(Eamon Dunphy show) she was original and funny


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,562 ✭✭✭cance


    awww, i think lee evans is brilliant :(

    His body movements and energy are impressive but when you actually listen to the content of his material its shocking.

    Remember watching some of the Lee Evans run on Paramount Comedy, sketches about caravan drivers and children's behavior at weddings had 5,000 people wetting themselves!!!!!!




    Further to Ed Byrne I'm gonna throw Peter Kay into the barrel, Phonix nights was entertaining but I'll leave his stand-up to his 80 year old fans.

    Looking through the thread I was amazed nobody had mentioned Peter Kay until now. Just not funny at all.

    Lee Evans has to be the worst though, he thinks he's the reincarnation of Norman Wisdom but is nowhere near as funny (and that's not meant as a compliment to Norman Wisdom).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 66 ✭✭last_orders


    jim davidson really bugs me, as well as all the comedians from the panal. when dara o'brien left so did all the laughs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,711 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    David bloody Baddiel. What a waste of sperm.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,618 ✭✭✭milltown


    How has this thread run to three pages without two of them panning Jason Byrne?

    I think Dara O'Brian and Ed Byrne are two funny guys.

    Tommy Tiernan fully deserves his place in this thread though.

    I'll also nominate Andrew Dice Clay. How does that guy sell out huge stadiums? Oh, wait. It's huge stadiums full of yanks.
