The Dave posted:I feel like the whole week was pretty god drat awesome. It really was. Monday's show was forgettable but since then they had Louis Ck + Penn Jillette, Florentine, Quinn, and then Joe Rogan + Gervais. Aside from Macklemore talk it was been pretty great. And then next week I think is the super show 2.0. It sucks that Colin won't be there though.

I do think Opie has been better this year, but he's not going to let that 'just a taste' catchphrase die. I'd like to know what Patton Oswalt suggested the boys do if they don't resign with Sirius (they will). It sounds like they all want to do it for a few more years after the contract is up in October.

I skipped it after listening to it for a little and the first thing Opie joked about when they came back from break was "that went well." Ant & Opie thought the segment sucked but it wasn't Jimmy's fault the guy he brought in wasn't good on radio.

The Dave posted:Just remember with all that Bobo poo poo like 90% of it is set up by the boys themselves. Like they absolutely had him in front of the studio and they are always calling him to get him on the air. So was 90% of the Lady Di poo poo this week which was kind of a bummer, Sam forced it way too drat much. She would have been a trainwreck all on her own without Sam telling her to interrupt every 5 seconds with something he told her to say. However that just made me appreciate Marion more because she was 100% herself on the phone.

Ant and Op didn't even bother touching that one. Thankfully it only happens a few times a year. When it does happen it always feel weird to me cause he's great & reasonable the rest of time.

yourafagpleasedie posted:I really don't see the 'treat this like the next Patrice' thing the Otto guy is having on everyone. I have never heard of this guy, on the show or the internet. Never mentioned when they bring up comics or friends and I must have been extremely unlucky to miss every show he was on. He just never gets brought up when they talk about others like Bobby, Vos, colin, and even with much smaller name comics. You do realize the regulars work with tons of comedians that hardly ever do the show, right? Jim and Bob are always talking about Keith Robinson but he only does O&A like once every two years. I'm not sure if you're trolling or not but if you aren't then you should get into Otto if you like Patrice, since they both approached comedy the same way.

We've been on such a sympathetic roller coaster with Lady Di from laughing at her clumsiness on Super Shows to feeling bad about her alcohol withdrawals during intern week to the unbelievable story of her getting mugged a few days later and now being disgusted at her stealing money from Bill to fuel her crack habit. What a wreck of a woman.

shyduck posted:The Louie segment felt off, as in it was less hangout and more interview. It also seems like they don't know how to talk to him anymore. It's been like that for a while. Louis really is a big celebrity these days so all they can do is say "wow, you were hosting SNL again and the cover of GQ and you have two TV shows and you're appearing in Oscar nominated films and..." Most of the regular comics they have maybe have ONE of those things in a year, if that. It's a little intimidating. That being said I enjoyed today's show and all the last few Louis appearances.

The Dave posted:One a year? Their super regular guys would be lucky to get one of those a decade. For sure, I just meant that usually the regulars have some small success that they come in and talk about every now and then, like Burr doing a movie with Pacino and last week's Florentine appearance where he says he got a part on Californication. Those are decent breaks for the regulars, meanwhile Louis comes in once every couple of months and he's had several major successes.

Cromulent posted:And his show is definitely not as brilliant as people make it out to be. A lot of episodes are really funny, some are great while not being funny, but a lot of them are just not good at all. Which is fine, it's not like a TV show has to be amazing every single episode. I agree completely. The funny thing is when I look at this thread, most of the O&A listeners feel the same way about Louie being good but overrated, but if you try to bring this up in the TVIV thread you'll get flamed forever.

Morter posted:The few times she called him "Jimmy" made me go deep into I was one of the guys who posted that they set up a lot of the Lady Di segments and today had a good reveal. When Guy Fierre was in studio Opie did his usual "Hi who's this?" and Lady Di immediately says "Sam told me to call into the show, he told me I was going to speak to Guy Fiere? Who's that?" Then she confuses him for being a pop star, but that's because Sam told her to call to talk to a famous singer they're going to have in studio. Lady Di isn't playing a character, she really is that dumb and lives a hosed up life, but Sam and Opie push her into making an rear end of herself. Sam absolutely feeds her tons of stuff to say or do and Lady Di does it because she knows O&A and the listeners will enjoy it. However Lady Di is too stupid to go along with the bit so she messes it up all the time. My point is if they just let Lady Di do her own thing she would be just as funny without forcing it so much.

Denny is only funny because of O&A, when Sal brought in clips earlier this week of Dennis the 70s Menace it was the worst thing ever on broadcast. When Denny's on O&A he's a cornball, but when he's on his own he's a bore as well as corny. The Super Show today was good but it was the weakest of the 3. They should rest it for a long while (and Di and Bobo with it), but on the other hand if they opened up with a surprise Super Show IV on their first day back from break it would be the funniest thing. Jim would leave the show. Bubba Smith fucked around with this message at 05:48 on May 17, 2014 |

I think they would be happy to resign if they could finally get a better studio. It must be embarrassing bringing A-list guests into a studio that's not much bigger than a broom closet.

cochise posted:I think they just keep that fat turd around because of his connections to publicists. He knows a lot of people and can book big stars for the media destination tour so the guys have to be nice to him for fear of losing those connections. I'm not even sure how true that is because they always complain about the guests they don't get and go on about all the lame guys they turn down. I think they keep Roland around because they like him (he does do some pretty funny things off air) and try to put the pressure of getting better guests on the company rather than on Roland.

The Dave posted:Are you trying to imply that rehashing the apology issue every episode now isn't a brilliant bit? to be honest when they opened it with a piece of production this morning I laughed and was up for it. I don't have an issue when it's the big apologies, like they're going to talk about Donald Sterling or Jonah Hill scandals anyway so they might as well tie it to an on-going bit. If they did that they would only do 1 apology every few weeks since that's how often the big ones break. However, Opie is having Sam grab any apology from anybody in the world every single day and that's making it dumb and tiring.

Daikatana Ritsu posted:I agree, and I don't think he's going to get fired. Plus he already received his punishment and then some by getting humbled in front of a crowd of people. It's just a funny story in that "about time" sort of way Yeah I doubt anything is going to happen because O&A simply aren't big enough. In a weird way that'll frustrate Opie because he knows if they were big stars they would absolutely be in deep poo poo over this. instead it's just proof that nobody cares anymore. The new studio will be done on January 1st 2015!

He likes Whoo Kid and that T.I. interview where the two were joking around was like a month ago. Ant isn't incapable of getting along with black people, his head is just full of racist poo poo and it pours out when he gets angry or drunk. So basically all the time.
