The Comedians of Comedy

[Rosenstern]

I just saw the first episode of this series, and I want Comedy Central to give me my half-hour back. It may just be me, but when I watch a program about comedians on tour, I want it to be funny. I don't want the show to be 50% on-the-road footage that nobody cares about! I want to watch the fucking stand-up! I really don't care about Patton Oswald's radio appearance to promote the night's show. I care about the show itself, which should not be broken up into differnent episodes, nor should it be further rearranged and interspurced within the aforementioned on-the-road footage. This show sucks.

I'm sorry.

You're retarded. The point of the show is to not show the standup footage. If you've watched a lot of comedy central, you've already seen each of these people many times. There's no reason to show them onstage when people actually do care about what they do offstage. I want to see the shit they never mention of they leave out. Why would i want to watch them tell jokes on this show when i can see them doing that on every other show they've been related to?

I just feel bad because i don't like Maria Bamford at all. I love the three guys there, and Bamford's sweet and all, but i just don't think she's very funny.

Okay, given that you apparently wanted to see the touring footage, did you really find the end product entertaining? I agree with your other point, that the comedians on the show are already played-out elsewhere, but I'd personally prefer their real standup acts to to what happens between them. Maybe I'm just old fashioned. :/

If you like the people involved, it's fun to see them and what they do offstage. That's what i really like about the show, is they're all comic with great personalities, and they're people i've been telling my friends about going "that guy's fucking funny".

Point accepted

I still don't like the show, though.
