Last Comic Standing was on last night. gary gulman, john heffron, and alonzo bodden were selected into the final 3 episode for next week. Who you think will win this competition?
Really hard to say. Alonzo blew it out of the water two weeks ago, but was just OK this week. Both Gary and John were funnier this week, but weren't funnier than his material last week. BTW, I missed it how did 4,5, and 6 turn out? That Tammy girl was hysterically unfunny. How she got into the top 5 astounds me. I'm happy, though. The three I thought were the funniest won. Much unlike the traveshamochery that was the final 32 into the final ten.
o yea int he preliminary episodes, it was a travesty how some funny comics didnt make it to the house and some crappy ones did(ant, bonnie, etc.) This is how last nights episode went: Mohr called out temmy and gary. they both performed.(just for pride and entertainment. it didnt effect the outcome. the people voted at home already). Mohr then said gary is going on the final 3. the next pair was heffron and the other girl. i forgot her name. Heffron won. Then London and Bodden performed. Bodden was announced as the winner, but London received a standing ovation and was praised by Mohr.
I liked Bonnie, but maybe I'm blinded by her hotness. Tammy, I liked at first, but then all the talk about doing it for her family and all the others are standing in her got annoying. Then her and Ant's unfunny ass with their stupid alliance made me hater her more. Anyways, I'm gonna go with Heffron. He's been the most consistantly funny guy in my opinion.
Alonzo is the funniest of the comics remaining. Tammy is a friend of mine and I hated to see her get the boot, Kathleen Madigan has had more chances than any of the other competitors, I'm glad she's gone and don't even believe she deserved to be there. The Gary guy has a great smile and that goes a long way in Hollywood, remember this is for a TV deal. Alonzo is the funniest but I predict Gary will win.
You know, I was wondering about Madigan because the otherday, I caught something on Comedy Central, it was like some HBO special of hers. I barely saw it, I think I saw her sitting at a table at the end and Dave Chappelle was there. Yeah, she definately shouldn't have been there, even though I'd never heard of her before, with an HBO special, you've had your shot.
I like Heffron the best ... I think he has definitely been the most consistent so far and I think he brings a little more energy than the other 2. I just don't think Gary is that funny and I think Alonzo is just ordinary and nothing special (although he does have funny moments).
I love Alonzo's comedic timing and rythym. It's like listening to George Carlin. But I think I like Heffron's material and energy more. Alonzo's material seems more suited to Comic View, despite the occasional flashes of brilliance. I'd be happy with either winning, but I'm pulling for Heffron.
Alonzo should win if it's based on merit. He didn't do well this week, but neither did anyone else. It's obvious that they are saving the good stuff for the real competition next week.
i was watching gsn(same show network) and it was airing Star Search with Arsenio Hall. One of the contestants for comedian search was none other than Alonzo. he won and got like 100000 dollars.
I didn't watch last season at all, but I realized that the runner-up from last year, Ralphie May, used to perform at a restaurant my family used to own. We used to host an open mike type of event for new comics, and Ralphie would try and help out the newbies. I do not remember any of his routine at the time, but I cannot forget when he targeted my friend in the audience one night. My friend was from Kenya, and I think that was all the ammo that Ralphie needed. He started talking about the 'hood in Africa, how there isn't a drive-by shooting, it is more like a run-by spearing. When he made the high pitched war chant, everyone was almost in tears. (Guess you had to be there.)
Anyone catch Jay Mohr on Leno the other night...dude is HILARIOUS...I wish he would get his own sports talk show cause he is awesome when he fills in for Rome. Are they going to re-run the finale?
Heffron was a decent choice, but Alonzo was much better. Did anyone else notice that when Heffron went up against Alonzo in the head to head at the theatre that Alonzo beat him by a 2 to 1 margin. How the hell does that happen? It happens when you get a bunch of stupid teenagers the ability to vote. They love doing it, and have nothing else to do than vote 100 times on their phone. There is a reason the min. voting age is 18, and it should be 21. Also, one vote and you're DONE. This multiple voting crap is ridiculous. Think about it. Dat Phan won last year, and his jokes were amatuerishly juvenile, at best. This year, John Heffron, (Or Jeffron) won, and, while funnier than Dat, his program was based on how we behaved when we were five, or when we were teens. (gee, wonder how he won?) Mohr, Damnit! Restructure the show, or pull the plug. You are pulling a traveshamockery on current comedians!!!
