So, when are we going to see the real “Mr. T vs. Carrot Top” site? I found one on the web, but it’s pretty lame. Mostly verbal, no pictures.
mmm… Buddy Cole.
I’m with you, dorkusmalorkusmafia, Carrot Top does have a nice bod, as I mentioned the the Jay Leno thread in MPSIMS. He’s like the male Sandra Bernhardt. Now picture those two together.
He came to my college, years ago. He was actually decent live, but his pacing was so fast that if a gag bombed, he moved on before the audience had time to turn against him.
At one time in the mid 90s he was the most popular comic on the college touring circuit, according to a profile at the time (circa 1994) in Rolling Stone. The writer tagged along with him during part of a tour. In the article, I remember his refering to a coed groupie who he had spent the night after a show as a “restraining order waiting to happen”. So just think of that Carrot Top haters, the man has groupies, and possibly even stalkers!
He seems to get the joke that people loathe him and plays into it. Hell, he even turned up in a fantasy during an episode of Scrubs, as a nightmare version of a “jokey” doctor IIRC.
Late night show hosts and comedians tend to look down on him becasue they regard him as only a prop comic. The joke being that if his luggage gets lost or destroyed, he has no act. So he has become the walking punchline for a stereotypically “bad comic”. I guess Gallagher wasn’t willing to play along.
Interesting, was that the origin of the hack comic on Seinfeld who was always commenting to Jerry “I’ve been working out. I’m huge!”
I’ve heard Carrot Top described as “Gallagher for thinking people.” Personally, this sounds a lot like describing the Yugo as “The AMC Gremlin for serious drivers.”
No, actually the final stop is when you’re on one of those “I’m a Celebrity, DAMN IT!” reality shows where you live in a jungle or home with other B and C list or long faded celebrities such as M.C. Hammer, Corey Feldman, Robin Leach, and Downtown Julie Brown.
Nah. Chris Rock did a bunch of “1-800-COLLECT” commercials after his stint on SNL and before his movie career took off.
I’m sure he looks back in shame, these days.
Homebrew, EW!
That’s why he doesn’t really bother me—I kinda like celebs who “get the joke.”
And what is the deal with his makeup now?? I remember seeing him on TV lots of times, years ago, without all the cosmetics…and now, he’s all mascara and plucked eyebrows and stuff. Weird.
ooooops, I caught two of his AT&T commericals yesterday & they were captioned. Little do they know that you can’t dial down the center with a TTY.
…and you never see him and Pee Wee Herman at the same parties.
What’s up with that??
Yes, Virginia, there IS a Carrot Topp.
Had there not been, we would have had to invent him.
So don’t listen to your little friends, Carrot Topp lives and lives well.
As opposed to a “fake persona”? 
Ugh. So why is this guy still around, but Yahoo Serious has disappeared off the face of the Earth?
There’s no justice . . .
You mean there are two or more of him!? :eek:
(Or did you mean alumnus?)
HA HA HA HA !!!
Oh man, that’s funny.
As for the OP. Of course “Carrot Top” in none other then the USA’s favourite hamburger lady Wendy.
Carrot Top went to college? For what?
I think his website said “marketing” but there is no way I’m going back to check.
