Jimmy Carr makes me laugh sometimes.

Totally with you on Mrs Brown though.

I'll add Eddie Izzard and John Bishop to the mix too

poachedeggs Tue 26-Feb-13 14:12:29

Paddy Mcguinness.

Sparklingbrook Tue 26-Feb-13 14:12:49

Quite like Eddie Izzard.

Currently-Peter Kay

I find Jimmy Carr quite funny, but not Alan Carr. Yes, we get it, you're gay and you wear glasses! So fucking what?

MardyBraWouldDoEddieRedmayne Tue 26-Feb-13 14:13:35

I'm with you on early Fools and Horses sparkling but some of the later ones were classics.

Miranda
Everybody Loves Raymond
Lee Evans
Michael McIntyre
Will Ferrell
Bridesmaids
The Hangover

All of the OPs ones.
Also...

Not Going Out
Blandings
My Family (how has it been going for so long? HOW??)
Outnumbered - precocious brats with dumbass parents
Miranda in any way shape or form

I don't find that posh bloke funny either, I can't remember his name but he's won some awards this past year and he was in that Fresh Meat. Agree on Paddy McGuiness but I've always quite liked Peter Kay.

Sparklingbrook Tue 26-Feb-13 14:15:14

Mardy it's just starting on BBC1. grin Try not to split your sides with laughter.

MardyBraWouldDoEddieRedmayne Tue 26-Feb-13 14:15:47

Miranda the telly show, although I think Miranda the person is funny and clever.

MardyBraWouldDoEddieRedmayne Tue 26-Feb-13 14:17:28

Am in a café so no telly around [gutted?]

MardyBraWouldDoEddieRedmayne Tue 26-Feb-13 14:19:35

Jim Carrey films with the notable exception of The Truman Show

MarmaladeTwatkins Tue 26-Feb-13 14:23:30

Oh God. That Mrs Brown's Boys is about as funny as being locked in an airing cupboard with Mitmoo.

Sarah Millican

YY to Sarah Millican. Cannot stand the woman. As funny as dipping your piles in vinegar.

bedmonster Tue 26-Feb-13 14:26:11

Oh god yes SM, her shrill voice and hammed up accent really grates on me!

EstherRancid Tue 26-Feb-13 14:26:59

Friends

wtaf is that all about - and please don't say 'friends'

KurriKurri Tue 26-Feb-13 14:27:52

'about as funny as being locked in an airing cupboard with mitmoo' - now that did make me laugh grin

My 90 year old mum insists that Mrs Brown' Boys is hilarious, - I haven't the heart to tell her it is the worse kind of shite, so I have to listen to her telling me everything that happens in each episode and let her urge me to 'try and catch it next time it's on' grin

Ricky gervais. Saw Jimmy Carr live, tickets a present. I am not a prude, but found his jokes distasteful.

LaPetiteSirene Tue 26-Feb-13 14:28:48

Lee Evans.

MunchkinsMumof2 Tue 26-Feb-13 14:29:10

I'll raise your Sarah Millican with Ricky Gervais, can't abide him.

EstherRancid Tue 26-Feb-13 14:30:59

Shameless

Catherine Tate

Outnumbered - wtf - those kids are just creepy

Paddy McGuiness - rude and childish
