Ugh, the Girls Next Door were so fucking annoying. Not even Esther Ku's laugh was more annoying than that one who orgasmed over Ron G.
Um, so even though Marcus was definitely the most amusing with the bedtime story, how was that a story? That was a movie trailer. Not that I expected Playboy bunnies to have a basic understanding of story structure, but still. Anyway, the showcase: Adam - It's not that he isn't funny, but he just doesn't stand out at all. There are so many 20something "LOL, sex, LOL Bush sucks" comedians out there. You can see an Adam at an Open Mike night practically anywhere. Iliza - She was definitely stronger last week, but for what was apparently 2/3 new material, it seemed pretty consistent. My only issue with her is the generic "big tough guy" and "whiny girl" voices she does. It can get old after a while. Jeff - I have to admit I cringed when he did the Seinfeld voice at one point, but overall, he's my favorite one left. He just seems really relatable and has a great delivery. Jim - I like him and even though he does the same sort of thing every time, the actual material is always different. But I've never been totally blown away by him. Louis - He's always been a front-runner (deservingly) but there are so many comedians like him out there already. I don't know, the material is fresh but taking the whole package into account, he just doesn't stand out all that much. Ron G - Honestly, it wasn't completely as painful as I expected, but it was still utter crap. Sean - I liked the song I guess but I always think it's cheap when comedians sing a song and don't change up the lyrics enough. Yeah, most songs have a repeated chorus, but when it comes to comedy, you have to switch things up if you wanna keep the audience interested. i wouldve paid to not have papa cj do it. can you imagine how awful that would have been? "Hello ladies. That's right, now even your bedtime stories are being outsourced! This one's called 'The Little Engine That Crashed.' Once upon a time, a conductor had to stop a train because a cow stepped onto the track and an Indian passenger demanded that they wait for the cow to move, because we worship cows. So while they were waiting, the conductor got on his laptop but he couldn't connect to the Internet. So he called up customer support and on the other end was a guy named 'Mike' who spoke with a repressed Indian accent. Mike couldn't help him out, and the cow was still on the tracks. So the conductor went to the dinner car and found the Indian passenger and told him, 'Look, we need to get moving here, whether the cow's there or not.' The passenger got upset, and threatened to kill the conductor if he harmed the cow. The conductor grabbed a pocketknife and lunged at the passenger. But the passenger told him, 'I do not care if you kill me. Because I am Hindu--I'll be reborn! And for all you know, I'll be born as your child. I'll be sucking at your wife's boobies and you won't even know it!' Then he repeated that three times for effect. But the story has a happy ending: the cow moved out of the way, and soon after, the train crashed and killed every passenger aboard. I hope you liked my story, ladies, and if I said anything that may have offended you--I don't give a crap." Oh yeah, and the two lines I would've said at the Playboy Mansion if I were a contestant: when I chose my book number, I'd tell the Bunny that I would also take back the underwear that I left at the mansion during my last visit (wham bam thank you ma'am!), and when Bill Bellamy told everyone to keep their hands to themselves, I'd say "Isn't that what got Pee-wee Herman arrested?" (oh yeah, that's right, I went there!). |

I haven't watched the last few weeks b/c as usual they chose mostly shit to make the show BUT I didn't feel like watching So You Think You Can Dance
Results Show filler so instead recorded it and watched the 2nd hour of this instead to see the actual acts.
Ramey and Iliza were hyterical. The rest were crap! Different levels of crap but top comics in the world? Adam Hunter was the best of the worst but big viola guy? Singing guy? Ron G? Guy who did the Sound of Music Joke? OMFG..you all suck. |

and my guess is that they stretch this out over two weeks (5 then 2).No actually the final 5 is where the winner is picked from :) I wish they would stretch the house episodes out (I hate double eliminations) and do less performance shows. Here were my thoughts on everyone tonight: Adam: I overall didn't like it but Iliza: Bitch has balls for doing new material and it payed off for the most part. Her impressons are always hiliarous. I also have to give kudos for her referencing "<3" which is something I do in every post <3. Also, the "Hey bitch, call me later skank slut whore love ya bitch" was totally up my ally. Ron G: It's really not about me thinking his shit isn't funny. I can barely understand what the fuck he is saying and the entire routine I'm trying to translate. His jokes really weren't funny or memorable enough for me to even hate on. He shouldn't have even made it past the auditions, much less the fucking final 8. Jeff: He was actually decent. A bit forgetable but I really loved the "Favorite Things" joke. He was one of the people I disagreed with being put into the finals, but he has since proved me wrong. Jim: I like him FAR better doing situational comedy. Stand up is not his thing. I guess sitting there with a bass saying "What up shorty?" was suppose to be funny? The only joke that even had me remotely laughing was him playing what his 1st marriage reminded him of. Louis: I have never got anything he did up until tonight. I always thought he was kind of meh and grouped him with wRONg as a wtf contestant. Tonight he had a lot of laffo jokes. I loved the honey joke and I was cringing while laughing thinking about it in an actual situation. He was right up there with Iliza as the best of the night, easily. Sean: I really hate the whole gimmic shit with the song. It really wasn't even that funny but the fact that he sang automatically makes things memorable. It's kind of a cheap way to go about things but whatever. I too liked him more in situational comedy, but his stand up routine really fell flat. His gimmic was funny at first, but like with Papa CJ it gets old after awhile. As for who goes? I think Louis will be skating by with his great set and pimp spot. It didn't really matter what Iliza did, she was going through. She's the focal point of the show recently and she's the underdog everyone roots for and the first female winner, yeah yeah, she's through. Next I'd say Jeff is through. He's been solid throughout the finals, and it doesn't hurt that he's good looking. I think the fourth that stays will be Jim (but it could easily be Sean). I am positive it won't be wRONg and I don't think Adam did anything for anyone to really want to vote for him. ETA: LOL @ the guys all coming together to decide NOT to challenge or vote or Iliza. In actual translation that is basically saying, instead of easily scapegoating someone, let's just all vote each other out!!!111one!!1 Although if they had a vote off, it would have been dumb to pick Iliza again. She already has America on her side and her winning a 3rd showdown would have solidified her win. |

Louis is smart because he realizes it's not just a comedy competition. It's a tv show. If they did choose Iliza again and she found a way to win,
she'd have this great storyline going into the finals. Remember what they said about being not just funny, but likable too. He knew they needed to get
the attention off of her.

Not like it made much of a difference, they all went in anyways.

So who's left? I'm not sure when I'm going to get around to watching this pile of shit. Jackass who is breaking restraining order has been sending
girlfriend and myself death threats and anal rape threats all day;.

Watching this now. Christ, it's UNBEARABLE. I can't believe these ANNOYING brain dead playmates are worth watching on any level and if Hef weren't
going to die soon anyway, I would wish for a jetliner to crash into the main house and kill everybody.

Started out UNBEARABLE and for the most part got worse and worse-then you don't even see who actually gets cut. Whoever decided two hours of this crap
would hold a respectable audience should be shot. Especially if it's Jeff Zucker.
Only a handful of them can actually perform in an entertaining manner without coming across as super lame and unoriginal. |

If you ask me, it is obvious that Sean and Jim are going home...they both SUCK!!! I actually think Ron G's stuff can be pretty funny sometimes. He is basically a 1 note pony, but he can make me laugh. As for the 3rd person going home...I am hoping Adam...he is old already. |

The only people who think Jim sucks are those who aren't intelligent enough to get his humor.
I guess you fall under that category! |

Okay I'm going to make some notes but some of these people are so lame I might not even remember them-but I should be able to.
Adam Hunter-yuck. Don't remember but it was pretty lame or unfunny or both. Iliza (sp?)-at least she has the balls to try new stuff and tries to be relatable especially to girls. Kind of lame but the girls in the audience laugh at her crap-but some of them look so stupid that they'll obviously laugh at anything. Jim-yeah, well, okay, at least there's something different there. Still can be annoying. Sean-again, something different. Hit or miss. Ron G-I can't remember anything about him (oh yeah, dream crusher)-real lame. Who else is left? Shit, this is harder than I thought Jeff Dye-come on, kid, you can do better than that. Does he watch too many movies or something? The sound of music-homeless guy? WTF? Louis Ramey-what did he do again? Apparently nothing he was last and I can't remember one fucking thing he said. Marcus is pretty annoying and some of those impressions suck because some of those people are both annoying and no longer anyone anybody pays attention to (Gilbert Gottfried, for one.) Screw the playboy girls decision, actually they all sucked and the bedtime story thing was way lame. Are they going to drag this crap through four more hours (two episodes.) Couldn't they just kill it next week? If they don't, it will really suck. The two hour format scks balls, anyway. |

That whole first hour was brutal. The bedtime stories with the girls next door was the dumbest idea ever. None of the stories were funny and that one bimbo
was so annoying. Her laugh was obnoxious and how many times did we have to hear her say "I don't understand". They're just stupid stories,
what's not to understand?
The second half of the show was a little better although nobody blew me away. I don't think I really care who wins as long as it's not Ron G. He seems like such a prick and he's not at all funny. |

I hate to say it but I really don't think Sean is going anywhere. If you look at the NBC boards, they're either infested by his relatives or he has a
much bigger fanbase than Sucks would indicate. I wonder what random profession he'll sing about this week?
Iliza, Louis, and Jeff are all most likely safe too. Unless people want a poor man's version of Dane Cook (I never, ever thought it would be possible to type those words), Adam is gone. Unless NBC pulls some underhanded crap (because that's never happened before), Ron G should take the long-overdue walk of shame. And unfortunately that leaves Jim, who I just don't think was a big enough personality in the house and had an act that you either love or hate, not a whole lot of middle ground. Hopefully he can pull off an upset and stay in over Sean, but I don't see it happening. |
