NOT FUNNY.

I have been laffing at Charlie Brooker on Screenwipe. I still can't stand his column.

If you like David Cross, just go die.

I am now remembering a thread where Jess talks about liking Earl, or My NAme is Earl, or whatever that tv show that comes on before the Office is called. OMGWTF!

yah jess loves Earl. wtf.

It's funny.

i fucking hate that show.
xxp

funnies r subjective amirite

Deliberately using poor grammar (i.e. "I has") (and thereby most people here)

you has a flavor, BUZZKILLA VANILLA

^^^^^^ funny

:D

dan also thinks Drawn Together is funny. he is not a good judge of comedy obv.

Drawn Together isn't funny anymore. It's far too self-aware about how horrible it is which kills all of the "Oh my God, I can't believe they thought this would be a good idea" lolz.

I kind of enjoyed the 15 minutes of Drawn Together I saw... but you could REALLY sense that this wasn't going to be around for long.

My sister's bf likes this show that looks like 8 bit graphics... you know, that one?? Not. Funny.

Drawn Together has been on for THREE SEASONS now.

Drawn Together has been terrible for THREE SEASONS now.

We've been talking about Drawn together for SEVEN POSTS now.

I am thinking of the one with the anthropomorphised animals. BAnal real-life conversations coming from clay animals... I guess it's not Drawn Together.

no. i like that show. its funneys.

athf is funny. Movie was deese too.

Mastodon song was awesome.

My sister's bf likes this show that looks like 8 bit graphics... you know, that one??

Code Monkeys? Yeah that sucks.

I've never understood why athf is more popular than Tom Goes To The Mayor. But then again, I'm a huge Strangers With Candy fan and prefer my comedy along those lines.

tom goes to the mayor is somewhat difficult visually and in the delivery of the characters where athf is cute, cartoony food items with slapstick humour.

not really that hard to figure out.

But the visual characteristics are what make it so appealing. It's so odd/funny to see characters that are stuck in suspended animation, mid-speech. It's like the film Awakenings, but you're actually supposed to laugh at it. One of the few shows I can watch on mute and still laugh.

ATHF is funny for autistic, 13yo stoners...or South Park fans that have outgrown South Park.

ok i'm so glad i'm not you.

what chaki said

I've always thought the same about everyone here.

ATHF is funny for autistic, 13yo stoners...or South Park fans that have outgrown South Park.

you don't see how this kind of makes you seem like a pompous ass?

most things that try to be funny aren't, but I only notice (and despise) the stuff that people constantly try to shove in my face to get me to laugh with them about...

99.9% of gossip writing
anything on NPR
Dennis Miller (never was)
Christopher Guest
political slogan type humor ("lol we have a bush and a dick for president rofl"), t-shirts, bumper stickers, bloggers, etc.
lolcats
Goldentine
Larry the Cable Guy
the "Phil Collins speech" in American Psycho
Spoof movies
Weird Al
"Chocolate Rain"
puns
people who say "sarcasm is the lowest form of humor"

I could go on and on.

all "grown-up" cartoons

does the Venture Bros count as "grown up"? i like that one.

yes. and its genius. metalocalypse is too.

people who say "puns are the lowest form of humor"

people who be hatin' and not celebratin'

the truth is i probably havent really seen any of those cartoons

ATHF is funny for autistic, 13yo stoners

i saw a trailer for a dane cook film. him.

ATHF is not funny
one big reason being that there's such weak context
anytime you want to do the 'insane, irreverent and arbitrary' schtick, there has to be much stronger context
space ghost C2C had that... and it was way way WAY funnier and more entertaining as a result
ATHF is just a huge mess

people who say "sarcasm is the lowest form of humor"

yeah, 'cause it's puns.

the "Phil Collins speech" in American Psycho

nah, that's deep

Keegan Michael Key, presenter of the Planet's Funniest Animals.

Painfully unfunny. And the more unfunny he gets, the louder the crowd applauds because some dude is holding up a "laugh" sign behind the camera. Not only that, but he EXPLAINS jokes. You don't explain jokes! Never! ("My cat invited 100 other cats for a party, but nobody came... That's what happens when you throw a POOL PARTY for CATS!" (silence) "THEY HATE WATER!" (audience absolutely explodes with laughter) )

Poor guy probably thinks he's the shit, but man... :-(

Haha, I've never seen that but it sounds kind of awesome, unfunny shoving unfunniness into unfunny jokes by overexplaining them...I like that stuff.

In HS me and my friends made a fake "America's Funniest Home Videos," and the kid playing Bob Saget help up this Monopoly house and did this monologue with too many pauses: "See this house?...It's my producer's house...My producer is poor!...That's why he lives in this house!....My producer can't afford a big house...This is his house...You know, my producer was telling me he lived in this house, and I laughed because he's poor!...He doesn't have any money so his house is small!" And that's a nostalgic thing for me so maybe that's why yr thing is making me laff Stan M.

:-)

(I know not all of these shows are unfunny, I don't get depressed by Tom Bergeron.)

Are you talking about the Animal Planet host that does kind of a combination of news report/funniest home videos thing? Because he is not funny. Just aimed at small children and shut-in's.

"I guess not every dog has its day. Especially when it's raining cats and dogs, and you've just stepped into a poodle..." etc

s1ocki, what do you define as grown-up cartoons? you mean like king of the hill? or like fritz the cat?

im SO over nick swardson
