DP is watching Stuart Lee who is not funny

He is trying to convince me he is funny but DP hasn't laughed the whole time he has been on. Neither have I.

On the tv with his trousers down.

I know he is unfunny because normally the camera cuts to the audience laughing but not once, it must all be canned laughter.

NOT FUNNY.

Urgh DH thinks he’s funny, I really don’t.

Sorry but you just don't get it :) 🤣 He's a thinking mans comedian.

Haven't seen this particular show, but YABVVU. He is the funniest. I agree with Window. Follow the streak of thought all the way through, and you will get to the funny bit. It builds. And is well worth it.

I love him.

BitOfFun · 30/12/2018 03:48

He's brilliant, but you really have to know his stuff.

Armchairanarchist · 30/12/2018 03:51

Sorry, I think you're wrong. He's one of the few comedians to make me laugh.

You're wrong, he's utterly brilliant. His jokes can be very, very long-winded though (the pants down one is a good example of this).

scarbados · 30/12/2018 04:01

He's brilliant and YABVU because he is very funny. Just because you don't understand him doesn't make him not funny.

He's usually hilarious but I sat stony-faced through his last TV show.

ABoozedMoose · 30/12/2018 05:58

I love Stewart Lee!

He is generally funny but he’s not a gags man. It’s much more slow build than that. I still love his ‘values of the Carphone Warehouse’ routine.
