Jiminy Glick

[DaHanG]

They've stopped making episodes of this show but I thought the interviews were hilarious. People either love it, hate it, or they think it's ok.

Here's a sample:

Thoughts?

never was a fan of glick, but I do think Short is one of those Gifted Comedians.
JG was not my cup of tea, but there are good moments.

I thought it was funny. Although when the show came out I was a wicked stoner.

Martin Short didn't used to be as funny as Steve Martin. However somewhere around Jiminy Glick he actually rose to the same level. As proof, the Jiminy Glick movie features bloopers during the credits in which Martin Shorts runs circles around Steve Martin and keeps catching him off guard with the next joke.

The consistant fat jokes are understandably unfit for some, however there's a scene in the movie where he's trying to get Forest Whitiker's attention by yeling "Forest! Forest! Forest! Forest! Forest! " and once Forest gives him a few seconds to ask him questions he says: "Can you believe it ladies and gentlemen... That was Forest Gump." So the constant shots at pop culture is great.

One of my favorite Comedy Central shows. In fact one of about only 2 shows of theirs that I actually liked. (Comedy Central was built on airing repeats of unoriginal series like Whose Line, and that's how it should have remained)

dave chapell

Dave Chapell was funny and original.. Until Carlos Mencia came around and kicked his ass in the ways of comedy. Besides the world was a better place when he was known as "Achoo form Robin Hood Men in Tights" than when he was popular enough to care about his name.

I feel I have a pretty good sence of haha.

I don't even attempt to watch Colbert. Initially he was funny doing the cameo spot on The Daily Show but his egocentricity went manic when he got his own show. His aggressive "I'll out-clever you" persona just gets tiresome.

My favorite part about Cobert is that his running for president publicity stunt.. happend about a month after Mike Row form Dirty Jobs made the same humorous announcement on You Tube. Talk about being late to the punch line there Stephen.
