[Theblip]

From what I can see from watching tv, the following appear to be the current batch of hot young comedians. Which do you find funny? How would you compare them to top comedians from previous decades?
JOEL DOMMET
MO GILLIGAN
ROMESH RANGANATHAN
ROB BECKETT
NISH KHUMAR
JAMES ACASTER
KEVIN BRIDGES
JOE LYCETT
SARA PASCOE
KATHERINE RYAN
SUZI RUFFEL
ZOE LYONS
JOSIE LONG
Feel free to suggest other names

[Old_Geezer]

I know some of the names and they aren't bad. But without a decent series showcasing their talents, or lack of them, I don't find it easy to judge.

[royfromaus]

JOEL DOMMET... Can't remember anything funny he has said.
MO GILLIGAN... I like Mo
ROMESH RANGANATHAN ...One of the best things on telly
ROB BECKETT... he's ok
NISH KHUMAR ...made a living out of looking incredulous and laughing at other people's jokes

JAMES ACASTER ...I like the weirdo.
KEVIN BRIDGES... Kev's ok
JOE LYCETT...take or leave
SARA PASCOE...She tries, bless her.
KATHERINE RYAN...used to like her but gone off her
SUZI RUFFEL...I like her but she doesn't split my sides.
ZOE LYONS...I always feel I know what's coming next.
JOSIE LONG...shrugs shoulders.

From canned laughter to the most precious talent on television, that is the ability to break instantly into howls of guffaws at the drop of a hat, or even no drop of a hat, about as funny as trying to lass a hard stool through a hemahrroid.

[Theland]

Pass

[CrapAtCryptics]

Cant really say any of the current bunch of comedians do a thing for me.

[Mexican18]

Never heard of any of them!

[Tilly2]

I find this lady extremely funny.




...and Peter Kaye

[Patsy33]

The only one I might go to watch, is Kevin Bridges.

[royfromaus]

Is lipsyncing...impersonating?

[Tilly2]

Dunno, Roy. Is it?

[zebo]

//I think PC has ruined comedy, so no I don't find many of them funny.//

That's the reason that they're all so similar, toeing the wokey-wokey party line. I can't bear Katherine Ryan, such a one-trick pony, Me and my vagina.
Joe Lycett can be funny when he takes on the big companies, isn't he now legally called Hugo Boss these days?

[Toorak]

Another vote from me for Kevin Bridges

[piggynose]

Sean Locke+ Mick Finnigan are my faves.

[Theblip]

Sean and Mick are no longer young

[piggynose]

Maybe not mrblip, but its only these guys that make me laugh.

[jourdain2]

I haven't heard of any of them. I find very little TV funny these days - or radio. The snippets I have tried just aren't funny.

[pastafreak]

I agree with Tilly @ 19:42.

[woofgang]

I am a QI fan. I will miss it.

[Tuvok]

I've only heard of most of them thanks to Taskmaster.

Never seen any of their comedy work.

[Apc2604]

There are seven on the list I don't know and I don't find the ones I know funny.

I agree with Sqad. I find spontaneous wit funny and clever, e.g. Have I Got News for You.
