I don't think that getting drunk, shooting your wife's puppy, and having the bullet go through the dog's leg and hit the wife is exactly an accident. He's a genuine lowlife and why the Love Doctors didn't get the midday Real Radio slot is still baffling to me.

Horrible people should be mocked by personalities, not become them.

I'm probably alone in this, but I'm starting to get bored with all of the AGT talk. Every day, the first hour of the show seems to be very AGT heavy and I personally find it boring. I haven't ever really been into these talent reality shows, so it's probably just me. I'll probably watch the first episode or two out of curiosity but that'll be it since I'm not into those shows. We get so little of Howard and the bulk of my listening is done early on, so this is tough to get through!

I'm in agreement. It would be one thing if the anecdotes were... you know... entertaining. But they're not. And most of it seems to be essentially a commercial for AGT.

The first hour of the show was always my favorite, especially on Mondays, catching up with Artie's crazy bullshit and/or blowing off Eric the midget for the first hour and letting him stew. I'd be fairly ticked off if I were Sirius and someone I paid FIVE MILLION GRAAAAND to spent his time talking about another show he was doing. Then again, Joel McHale spent like a quarter of this past week's THE SOUP talking about COMMUNITY. Then again again, that was entertaining.

It's been that way for a while now, hasn't it? I know one of the big reasons I gave it up was because the first hour (or more) was a recap of whatever horrible "reality" TV show was on the night before.

And so many of them are, "So, this thing happened and here is the general story except I can't tell you what ended up happening because it will spoil the show when it airs" Makes me crazy. Even if I do end up tuning in there's no way I would ever remember it was an act Howard made reference to months earlier, especially since in today's show during the first hour he did it three times alone. Glad I am not the only one! Agent Burt Macklin fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Mar 12, 2012 |

I did enjoy hearing today that Howard is already getting sick of his WONDERFUL NEW JOB, that took what, a week? He's bitching about the 30 days meaning 30 x 24 hours already. Classic. How long before he decides he's not getting paid properly by them?

Give me owl stories, talk about the bachelor, put Beth in the Artie chair, just please god never again with the phone chat. I think he pitched it for an iphone after about six months anyway.

Is there a live portion to AGT? I think his commentary after a live show airs could be very interesting since he won't have to hold back.

It was the first thing I heard as I started the car this morning, about how he's been in more fights than Muhammad Ali and he'd break Howie's nose if he tried to "prank" him. It was like a rehash of "I'm the prankster!" but injected with testosterone. During the last Chuck Zito visit Howard explained that he dropped karate because hitting the board scuffed up his knuckles. His line of questioning with those transsexual actresses today was borderline revolting. "Lemme see your cock!" "Whats the biggest penis you've taken in your fake vagina?" "Do you dance around and attract the guys at clubs like that?"

Not to mention he's well into middle-age and can't even handle people disagreeing with him on his own talk show. He'd just run to his limo again and let Beth fight in his place.

People who say "we don't use a laugh track; we have a live audience" are trying to distract you from the real issue. They have "Applause"-type signs that light up to tell the live studio audience when they're supposed to make noise. The laughter is no more genuine than canned laughter.

Yes, they also put "professional" audience members into some seats to get crowds going. They screen out a lot of people that won't act the fool at anything anyone says. Sitcoms are usually loving horrible for a reason.

OG KUSH BLUNTS posted:Sitcoms are horrible because they're not funny and never have been Blanket statements never seem to work, I like a great deal of shows and I agree, most of them wouldn't be called "sit-coms". I don't think Louie is a sit-com and Larry David exists on "This isn't a situation, but I made it into a comedy". Funny is funny, and sitcoms are usually never funny and designed to be safe consumption, like AGT or books on raising dogs when you are rich and pay other people to do it for you.

He has been tearing a hole into anyone with a show really, Chelsea Handler, Whitney, he gets a bit of professional jealousy I think but he is spot on about those two and brutal about it. He talked about if you got stuck in a room with Whitney and Chelsea, neither one would make you laugh, because they are not funny, just reactive and say "witty" things which usually just means crude insults or playground stuff. Artie is a stand up however, so he thinks if you say anything you didn't write yourself, you are already a hack.
