I think ppl dislike fry for smugness, overexposure & not being funny (this last arguably unfair as it hasn't been his job to be funny for decades), also he has said dumb shit things about women iirc

I don't think everybody dislikes fry and I don't think everybody likes fry I don't think that the tendency in any one relevant subgroup is strong enough to be remarkable
UK ilxors prob hate him the same way lj was outraged about cheap orange juice being available to the lower orders that time

Linehan is way past his sell by date.
Stewart Lee is too Guardian for my liking. No trust there.

Josie Long is good at twitter. Never seen her stand up tho'.

Does Linehan perform comedy as well as write it?

Josie Long is still the most famous alumnus (alumna?) (oh you problematic Romans!) of the gifted and talented course I not only attended but now help to run - well, it's either her or a kid who ended up being one of the world's best beatboxers. I will outmatch them both one day obv when I write the text that defeats the entire alt-right

Father Ted is great but Linehan's sitcom work has been steadily declining since then and yeah, bad and terfy on twitter. I still love Seinfeld too but wouldn't list the dude as amongst my fav comedians.
Stewart Lee isn't really Guardian, he had Guardiandom thrust upon him. His entirely sensible reaction has been to record a Free Jazz album and announce his retirement.
Josie Long is a an angel and a hero, I miss her Camden comedy nights something fierce. But she is also perky and optimistic, so it shouldn't surprise anyone you can find lots of hate for her in the ILX archives.

He calls it a break not a retirement - but I'm still guessin' those Southbank tickets will seel out fast. Can totally understand it tho - someone who's made a living of being contrarian and abrasive gets to the stage where they're almost universally acclaimed, it's gotta fuck up the shtick to some extent.
