Child Item

Worst current comedians.

Matmania

I know everyone has different tastes so i get that but just looking for who they think is the least funny comedian operating today. Also who gets the silver and who would get the bronze. Not looking for reasons just names. I will start.

Gold: Russell Howard
Silver: Jason Byrne
Bronze: Des Bishop

At the end hopefully be a consensus and we can award the medals.

She is grand to me....not a good comedian more like some girl telling you a vaguely funny story that goes on too long..but harmless.

Gold Jason Byrne
Silver Jason Byrne

Jason Byrne is fairly poor - i've always found Ed Byrne & Michael McIntyre to be awful too.

Maeve Higgins isnt really a comedian - she just says every day things in a overly played up Cork accent, there's no actual comedy to it.
Similar to that Giz a laugh one who just does the same but with a Dublin accent

Hate her with a vengeance, my Ozzie cousin keeps banging on about her. Not remotely funny.

No one comes close to being as bad as Spittle

RWCNT

He's more of a podcaster pretending to be a comedian, but Brendan Schaub is the most dreadful attempt at comedy I've ever seen.

Salmon Leap

Michael McIntyre and Des Bishop for sure

Damn, that was the lady I meant to ask about. Not Maeve Higgins.

Guffy

Gold. Jimmy Carr, used to like him but find him crude now tbh.

Silver: tommy tiernan, just seems to have lost it too.

Bronze: pat short, stale as feck.

Ash.J.Williams

the greatest comedian (irish or otherwise) of all time is grainne mcquire.

Literally everyone else is the worst.

EmmetSpiceland

Andrew Lawrence.

JohnnyFlash

I don’t know if he counts as a comedian, but Blindboy is a painfully unfunny individual

Faith+1

Amy Schumer......shudder.

More of an “artiste” than a comedian now, J.

Ed Byrne

One of the worst in history - makes Jimmy Cricket funny.

I went to see Russell Howard last year in Dublin. The tickets were a gift. I never heard of him before going.

It was dreadful! He spent the whole show poking fun at the conservative party and conservative people in general. Does everything have to be heavily politicized these days? The crowd lapped it up all the same.
I was expecting more creative humour than just cheap jokes.

Gold: Jason Byrne
Dead heat for gold, Tommy Tiernan
Silver is that utter unfunny scouse knob, John Bishop.
Bronze: Jack Whitehall

Eric Cartman

Deirdre O Kane is probably the only female ‘comedian’ to get as much as a ‘ha’ out of me.

Alison Spittle and that overweight dyed red hair woman who goes on mock the week a lot are both absolutely bottom of the barrel though.

I prefer Deirdre O Kane as an actor in comedy shows as opposed to when she does stand up comedy or comic presenting

I used to watch Mock the Week year ago when Frankie Boyle was on . Russell Howard was the worst person on the show , he'd do weird impressions and tell jokes that'd make no sense, I can't believe hes still making a career out of comedy. Obviously some people find him funny but I can't see why

That awful Jon on the Jimmy Carr Countdown show.

I don't know his full name. He also ruined a charity Bake Off episode on me too.
