Russell Howard,shouting in a west country accent doesnt make a joke funnier.

[scone]

Jason Manford - He appeared from nowhere after a space was left by Peter Kaye

Sarah Millican - I cannot for the life of me remember any of her jokes, it goes in one ear and out the other, it's like listening to a woman with an annoying voice prattle on about nothing and her laugh makes me want to chop trees down.

Michael McIntyre - Observationist, Here is an example, "I went to get on a bus, a bus, yes, a bus," flicks his hair about a bit, grins inanely and all the morons are pi**ing themselves with laughter

Patrick Kielty - Not funny, never has been

Just because you don't like a comedian doesn't make the millions who do 'morons'.

Sue Perkins

[SarahJam]

Comedy is such a personal choice I don't see how people insult others for liking something different.

I don't get Lee Mack or his sitcom, Not Going Out.

Ken Dodd is never off the telly ???

[Dean Dare]

To be fair Ken Dodd is only on tv when an old comedian dies these days but I detest him so much I included him. Missed off kieth lemon, lee mack and Robert Webb

BIB - I so agree with you, I cannot stand either of them, irritating beyond belief

[warleywitch]

Can't abide Al Murray but LOVE andy Parsons and Michael Macintyre.

[warleywitch]

Oh and can't understand how Parick Kielty is considered to be a comedian.but I Love Sarah Millican.

[warleywitch]

Never found him funny, and he's always so smug, can't stand him

I mean there are comedians who don't do it for me - like say Ross Noble or Jo Brand, but i can see how others might like them.

But Sue Perkins - nope, sorry.

Worst still, she seems to be on everything on the BBC.

[warszawa]

I wouldn't say she's never off the telly, but i agree, i find nothing funny about Sue Perkins. Her mate Mel was funny though.

it does if I don't see what is so hilarious about the entertainer in question

Hello, Im michael mcintyre and I have a floppy fringe that I move about by shaking my head, if I was bald, 99% of my 'act' would be gone

No it doesn't, it just means you don't like them funny. I probably hate some of the comedians you like, doesn't make you a moron.

He has been blighted by rotten material. If you see him in stand up, documentaries and on Three of a Kind, you'll see a much funnier LH. He's also a fine straight actor.

[Chairman___Meow]

Sarah Millican and her tiresome 'woe is me' delivery and neverending references to her f@cking boyfriend.

Sue Perkins isn't a comedian these days, she's a presenter with a rather dry sense of humour. From what I hear she's a very nice woman too.

Then perhaps you might explain why she's referred to as a comedienne and comedy writer.

Honestly, I don't think looking like K D Lang's little sister and occasionally arching an eyebrow after making a damning comment constitutes comedy myself either. "This blancmange is like something I imagine you could scrape out of a dog food factory grate". Yeah, that's a grim observation, there's no actual humour there as far as I am concerned.

Read my post again.
I said she isn't a comedian these days. I'm perfectly aware she started out as one, so please don't patronise me.

Dry senses of humour appeal to some, and not to others. Personally, I think she's funny, but each to their own eh?
