NOT FUNNY.

Perhaps cheap to put her in this discussion since I May Destroy You is kind of a different thing, but Michaela Coel's Chewing Gum series is from the past ten years and very good.

I think a big problem tho is stand-up comedians, who are good at that, getting crammed into sitcoms or sketch shows, which are different things. Love Sarah Kendall but her show was terrible. Love James Acaster but the one episode he guested on for Josh Widdicombe's sitcom (nb I don't rate that guy as a stand up either) was horrible.

Re: panel shows, I always have to mention that these are far worse in every other European country whose tv I've been acquainted with. Like House of Games level lineups on prime time.

And the rest. I got so used to seeing Romesh Ranganathan's face everywhere I almost expected to find him staring back at me from the mirror in the morning.

Dr Oz going into "Wegner's" for a head of broccoli, some whole carrots, asparagus, fresh salsa and guac for his wife to make a "crudite" platter is legit pretty funny, however the click economy had completely smothered and stomped the joke before I even got to see the original.

It plays on a pretty tired trope for a start, while not really doing anything original with it.

This is the problem with so much sketch comedy. I suppose there was a germ of a funny idea in there somewhere. The clip takes that germ and rather than developing it just repeats it over and over for much too long (about 1:30 too long, in fact). It's the same dynamic that has drained much of the humor from sketch shows like SNL.

I saw a clip of Jimmy Fallon "interviewing" "Ron Burgundy" and it was some really bad "comedy"
