Last Comic Standing Aug. 31

Cafe Society

Well, nobody else started it. IT’s Season 1 vs. Season 2, and the expected massacre has already begun.

Tonight’s comix:

TERE JOYCE (S1) - Told no jokes in just under two minutes. Dreadful. Score (out of 10) - 1

JAY LONDON (S2) - Not up to his usual standard; none of tonight’s jokes were very funny. Score - 3

ROB CANTRELL (S1) - Actually had a few good jokes, but his timing is a bit faulty and he’s too manic for his own look. Score - 4

COREY HOLCOMB (S2) - Very good first minute, 3-4 good gags. Weak second minute. Score - 5

DAT PHAN (S1) - Yes, we know, you’re Asian. Some good gags. Score - 5

GARY GULMAN (S2) - A bit too much setup for a 2-minute format. Much weaker than usual. Score - 5

GEOFF BROWN (S1) - Dude, learn to use a microphone. Some good gags. Score - 5

KATHLEEN MADIGAN (S2) - A little political humor to break up the monotony. Good job overall, better than her last performance in season 2. Score - 6

SEAN KENT (S1) - You have to be REALLY good to make pot jokes original and funny. He’s not. Score - 2

ANT (S2) - You need never watch an Ant performance again. Just consult this handy Mad Lib, choosing your preferred words to fill in the blanks:

“Hi, I’m Ant! I’m _________(1) and proud of it! Hellllo, boys, I’m ______ (2) , and I’m _________ (3) as well! I was in ________ (4) and thee guys said boy, you sure are ________ (5) and I said, You bet, _________ (6) I’m THUPER _________ (7)!!!”

I wondered why I hadn’t laughed at any of the stuff. It was, of course, because the good stuff was here. Excellent Mad Lib, RickJay.

Wait, so is Ant’s gay?

Whew! I’m glad I checked before I started my “Breaking News: Ant is GAY!” thread.

I didn’t get to see as much of this episode as I would have liked. I was hoping Ant would have been knocked off right away last night. Yes, Ant, you’re gay. And we’re all happy for you, and I’m glad you live in a time and place where you can be open about and proud of who you are. But you desperately need to talk about something else.

I didn’t see season one so I don’t really have an opinion. Ralphie’s performance last night broke my heart though, and I’m glad people didn’t NOT vote for him based on that. I hope he can come back with full force so I can see what I missed out of last year.

And… oh, what’s his name? He’s a Minnesotan, which surprised me and he’s actually pretty funny. Tess, not so much. I saw her on comedy central once. Yes, you’re big, black, and beautiful. Yay for you! She’s funnier than Ant though. Anyway, like I said, I didn’t see much of tonight’s episode which is why I’m commenting on last night’s show. :slight_smile:
