Even if no one else in the room was a literal pedophile, being led by one is probably bad enough.

fred armisen has dead sociopath eyes and every story I've seen from women who have dated him confirms that theory edit: here's a quote (from this Gawker article full of dirt about how terrible he is to women) from his ex-wife, Elizabeth Moss: quote:"One of the greatest things I heard someone say about him is, 'He's so great at doing impersonations. But the greatest impersonation he does is that of a normal person.' To me that sums it up. and no one would know 'people doing an impression of a real human being' better than a died in the wool Scientologist DC Murderverse fucked around with this message at 01:54 on Sep 13, 2020 |

Have you ever wondered what would happen if someone concentrated all of the ironic racism on the internet and shoved it into the body of a lovely white dude? https://twitter.com/pengdangcomedy/status/1392147842731499520?s=21

DR FRASIER KRANG posted:Is there another comedian that inhabits the space Bo does where he both came up and had to actively apologize? I don’t know if “had” is even the right word there, it implies that he couldn’t have done anything else when there are other paths he could have gone down where he either excused or doubled down on the problematic elements of his earlier work for a different audience. I think he just grew as a person and felt the need to let people know that some of the poo poo he was saying was wrong. I’m roughly Bo’s age and while I’m not a public figure I have said a lot of stuff like that when I was younger that I would/have actively apologized for. It also probably helps that he was so young when he got big, comedy is really not a place where a whole lot of young people come up that quickly, combine that with his aiming a lot of his more recent work at people even younger than him and you have a situation where you can’t just say “well you know sometimes tastes change” because the younger millennials and zoomers seem to want to know that people know why they’ve changed and why it was still wrong even back then.

I think this new comedy special from Jerrod Carmichael is gonna get us another round of “that ain’t comedy” arguments from dummies. And like, I might kind of understand where they would be coming from but at the same time A: it’s still funny as poo poo because Jerrod still got jokes B: part of the reason it came with, for example, Nanette (I think) is that Gadsby is an outsider to “the stand-up community” in many ways where Jerrod is not. C: if it’s not stand-up comedy whatever it is is way more interesting. Y’all should absolutely watch it when you get a chance.

BiggerBoat posted:George Carlin documentary just dropped on HBO Max and I're read nothing but great reviews. It’s pretty good! First part is what I watched and it goes up until the late 1970s and it’s a pretty good balanced look at the man. It treats him as the massive influence he is but also doesn’t shy away from the parts of his life that were much harder, namely his fall into addiction and how his family dealt with that, but also the moments in his career where he sort of turned into a parody of his early self. I had never seen Rick Moranis’ imitation of him, it’s funny but also very unflattering and very accurate.

BiggerBoat posted:I'm not sure I'd call that entirely accurate. I’m not talking about later years Carlin, we aren’t even to the 1980s yet. I’m talking about the late 70s Carlin who got so deep into the wordplay that it inspired Rick Moranis to do this: https://youtu.be/-3j-yE49gvM That’s based off of a very real, very stupid Carlin bit about the words “peace” and “peas,” and to hear Carlin tell it watching this impression of him made him realize that he was gonna be a relic if he didn’t change his ways. The doc also mentions Cheech Marin calling him a relic when Cheech and Chong were at the top of their game and Carlin was on his way down. That’s the only time he became a parody of himself; his much later HBO era is, like you say, way different and not self-parody but just a change in style and the perspective he took in his act.

Analytic Engine posted:throw in Seinfeld for I will give Seinfeld credit for this: the man has way too much control over his image to ever appear in public again with CK. I just remember that interview special with the two of them, Gervais and Rock where CK drops the n-word as Rock and Gervais laugh and Seinfeld is there like “look you do what you want but I absolutely cannot be seen saying that poo poo or endorsing anyone else saying that poo poo”. https://youtu.be/il1sgQUtYs8 edit: this clip is funny because it absolutely showcases what a lovely loving coward Ricky Gervais is. Louis and Chris have been friends and colleagues forever and know where they stand with each other and so when Louis said that he was 100% confident that he was in the right, and Chris backed him up. Seinfeld was immediately put off and was like “no way” and held strong to that, but Ricky tried to play fence-sitter by laughing histerically, then trying to say “oh but I would never do that in a bit” to make him look good to Seinfeld and then immediately just saying it their conversation, to which Seinfeld rightly points out that it makes him look like a twat. He wants to be cool for Louie and Chris by laughing but he also wants Seinfeld to think he’s cool so he tries to play that side too and just comes off like the little poo poo he is. Gervais is such a loving bootlicker DC Murderverse fucked around with this message at 06:41 on May 22, 2022 |

I’m sure some of it is a little dated but the best stuff still hits. The 7 words bit is a particularly outdated since you can say a good portion of these words on network television these days but it’s really one of the high points of his jokes about words and semantics, because it’s obscene but never angry or particularly offensive unless you’re a real fuddy duddy https://youtu.be/8dCIKqkIg1w?si=iVMLbUbODHvlj31K edit1: another of my favorite older Carlin bits, it’s a lot better than his baseball/football bit https://youtu.be/SSe-_SBBjI4?si=Vu6vRNT2fE-9dUfm DC Murderverse fucked around with this message at 03:38 on Mar 29, 2024 |

I think a lot of people around my age have that experience with Robin Williams because as someone who is square in the middle of Millenialhood my first intro to Robin was as Genie and as an actor in in mostly family comedies, and the first time you see him really let loose is an eye opener. Especially because he was my dad’s age and he had very dad vibes as a guy generally. Obviously given how his kids seem to have turned out he was probably a pretty good dad on the whole, even with the whole mental illness and addiction thing.
