Comedy Inc

[the lemon wedge]

Does anyone watch this show i think it is very funny,i always look forward to watching it.

 

[Ljp86]

It's a great show. I love the Train sketches.

 

[the lemon wedge]

Yeah there funny,i also like matt and bray wich was not on last night.

 

[purple sneakers]

I'm a fan, a little hit and miss sometimes but the send-ups are generally good and some of the comedy is a little black (which I love).

Like Blokeman and Answerman.

Was always the best of the three sketch shows that came out at the same time (Skithouse, that channel 7 one). Before this season it'd started to go pretty flat but the start of this season was as consistently funny as it had ever been. Again it's starting go downhill a bit, which I guess it inevitable as the A grade material gets used to start with but its high points are still pretty funny. Regardless of the material though, Paul McCarthy, who does John Howard, David Koch and Rove, among others is brilliant. Man the canned laughter they use is particularly annoying though.

By the way, pretty sure Matt and Bray finished last week. Was a nice heartfelt ending

Only seen bits of it over time, can say I don't like it.

NOTHING will ever replace Fast Forward (staring Steve Vizard....oh how he wishes he stayed in entertainment/comedy)

 

[Mattlowry]

Absolute drivell in my opinion. Skithouse isnt great eitherbut is better than this..

At the moment best sketch show around is the english "The Sketch Show".. Awesome... Not aussie but doesnt bother me...

Comedy Inc is woeful, far too reliant on swearing to get giggles - note to producers: the only people who laugh at swear words are in bed by the time your crap comes on.

I've watched entire episodes and not laughed more than once or twice. I think one of the main criticisms of the show would have to be that it aims for realism, rather than just making sure the material is up to scratch. sure, the sets look real enough, but it may as well be set in a public toilet if the writing is garbage.


at least Skithouse is original.

********...********...********...police constable. Classic.

 

[materamagic]

hi, this is gary ayres, ive decided to come out.............

well comedy inc is all about comedy.

you got your celina who grows on you, your bloke mans, your little johnnies, your warneys.

what about me?

 

[Roonaldo!]

Chappelle's show farts all over it.


So does the old Brit Sketch Show.

 

[Silvermylar]

Comedy by numbers - never really been impressed by it.

Hardly ground breaking stuff

 

[Borry]

Not the funniest show around, but not the worst.

Fast Forward and Full Frontal were better.

 

[meh]

lol, comedy inc is gold!! the trains are, stevie with the stutter.

the fat c**t c**t c**t controller lol

 

[Catfish Jake]

I'll watch pretty much any comedy show. Comedy Inc is not my favourite show but it's better than watching cop shows. That's all that seems to be on these days, freaking cop shows every night. I can't stand them.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

I hate Comedy Inc. I hate Skithouse. And Full Frontal was terrible.

The Late Show. Now that is champagne comedy. Wish those guys would go back to doing a skit show.

BTW When is the Panel coming back on?

 

[peternorth]

The Panels not coming back in its regular format.....only doing a Xmas special.

Shame really, but I gotta say it did start to lose it not long ago. I felt presenters (esp Rob and Glen) made a lot of it about themselves.

Comedy Inc is awful. Watch The Fast Show, Big Train and Smack The Pony and see where sketch comedy is at in the rest of the world.

Micallef proved Australian sketch comedy can still be intelligent and funny.

But obviously that's not what most people want

 

[Lonie_from_50]

The good thing about the show is its taking off of actual TV Shows unlike Skithouse. It aint the best show, but not the worst.

But i don't work Sundies, or me day off

 

[Chops18]

Used to watch it but dont get round to it any more, my fave sketches were the Warney ones.

 

[materamagic]

couple of years back one of them did a hilarious ozzy osborne.

parody of good morning america, it was good morning with ozzy.

they cut to ozzy with the slogan showing a coffee cup and a few pills, they cross to ozzy shaking and spilling his coffee with purple glasses and looking paranoid saying "good morning, heck off, c-come back at 4 in the afternoon or something.

they did ozzy a this is your life, it was gold. "Sharon, who the heck is Sharon" lol

Totally wrong. That's why it's s hit. Can't even think up anything original. It's lazy, unoriginal, cheap and embarrasing.

Great comedy is self-generating. Lame comedy needs something to copy.

Could not agree more. I would cringe if the writers/producers of the shows you mentioned were forced to watch Comedy Inc.
