Oh thank God I found John Candy, was kinda surprised to not see him in the "gone to soon" section, could have tossed Belushi in there for that matter as well. Some tough choices in this one as well as the others. The Stones vs. Seth was harsh, love both of those shows a ton, each is excellent and incredibly creative and f'in hillarious in their own ways.
wow....I'm really surprised Chase is losing that bad to JB .I mean I agree, but I thought it would be tighter. BTW, I should be on this list....
Not me- triumph sux. Never did really like him. He has his moments, but I always felt like he was trying to hard...but comedy is EXTREMELY subjective, after all.
Harold Ramis!!!!!! Director of "Vacation" "Cady Shack" "Ground Hog Day" END THREAD......why is this guy not winning?!? I love john candy.....but COMONNNNN EDIT: And he F'ing wrote ANIMAL HOUSE STRIPES.....AND MEATBALLS what a TRAVISTY!!!!!!!
Sir I digest from the muppets insults. I happen to STILL watch them. I own almost every movie (before Jim passed on) and think they are great watches.
Great = Funnier than Triumph? Plus you have kids (Which is why Im gonna give you the benefit of the doubt for still watching)
I do have kids you are correct.Triumph is not funny IMO. Some of his stuff is, but it gets old quick. Muppetts are a timeless classic that has survived generation after generation. You cannot honestly say that Triumph will still be around in 30 yrs.
And yet here we are, 40 years later, and they're still making 5 year olds laugh. *Not to mention being directly responsible for the most hilarious Avenue Q.
Again Sir , Timeless = Funny? Sure the muppets are great but Im not gonna laugh at them like I would Triumph. I think the Muppets are getting the edge because you guys remember them as kids, not because you think they are 'Just Damn Funny' Maybe Im off base though...
I do remember the muppets as kids. Also the muppet babies. Is there Triumph babies? Triumph has given me some laughs, the Muppets have given me many more laughs.
I think both are very funny. But Triumph's insult comedy just doesn't have the broad appeal. I find it hilarious personally. I liked watching the Muppets as a kid, but seriously, I didn't laugh at the Muppets until I grew up. They were doing vaudeville humor. And despite appealing to kids, they are just damn funny.
That matchup was really close last night. Hopefully my threat of going back to Finheaven if Matt and Trey don't win got them the votes they needed. Family Guy was funny in its first two seasons. But it was never as funny as South Park, even when South Park is bad by its own standards. And ever since Family Guy was brought back it has been horrible. I don't know how its become so popular this time around.
Are you really that surprised? I voted Hartman, out of loyalty to a personal favorite. And while I love Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, Troy McClure and his work on News Radio, it is hard to match that up against Wayne, Dr. Evil, Austin Powers, and Shrek.
It's a shame, I would have liked to see Chevy go further into the tourny but it looks like Belushi is just too much to handle in Round 1. Also hoping Nealon can pull off the W against McDonald.
