To wonder why Romesh Ranganathan…

[Rainymoondays]

Had so much exposure on TV? He’s really really unfunny, he’s a crap stilted presenter and just makes everything awkward.

I listen to him on the radio, and I do find him funny.

Millions disagree with you

Millions? Where did you get that stat from?

Because they buy a presenter’s exclusivity for x number of years and ram them into every show to get their moneys worth.

I really like him!

I think he is great. Everyone has a different sense of humour and there is no objective good or bad comedians. He's great at what he does, you just happen to not like it.

I like him and find him hilarious. His mother on the other hand…

I think he’s great. Recently rewatched the first series of Taskmaster and he was fab.

What do you like about him? Genuinely I don’t find him funny. I mean I don’t dislike him as a person, he seems fine. But just not funny and an awkward presenter

I really like him, he’s funny and he’s vegan so great!

What is his sense of humour though? I’m watching that tv programme with him on it now and there’s no personality there

I wonder the same about Nigel Farage

In your opinion. Clearly, a sufficient number of people disagree with you that putting him on tv remains a profitable endeavour for the company producing the programme. It's not a conspiracy.

I mean he’s a cunt. But not sure what he has to do with RR?

Didn’t suggest it was. I just wonder what I’m missing - and what people find funny about him

Totally agree! He used to make her part of his act and talk about how horrible and disparaging she was about him. We were all supposed to find this hilarious apparently 🤔

OP, I can't stand him tbh, find him unfunny and he doesn't seem to find it all easy imo.
Don't normally watch him although did catch him at the end of a quiz the other night, we both couldn't see why he was the presenter.

I'm with you @Rainymoondays can't stand him

No way, he’s brilliant on Radio 2, I can only listen to him and Vernon these days.
I think they’ve shoved him on loads of quizzes which he does reasonably but he’s better where he can observe/chat.

Romesh is really quick witted, I find him funny. Comedy is subjective, there's loads of comedians and presenters I can't bear to watch. That's life. What an odd thread OP.

Nothing at all. But he's also over exposed IMO.

I find him quirky and dry. His grumpy persona is similar to Jack Dee in some ways. I also like his self deprecation when telling anecdotes about how his wife, kids and mum treat him. I find him down to earth and amusing. Like a friend who's a bit of a curmudgeon but you are fond of them. I really enjoyed the Ranganation and fouhd it uplifting and very amusing.

Do you find everyone else funny except him?

Do you think everyone should find the same people funny?

Is there anyone you think is funny that other people don't?

I disagree he is funny I love watching him. If you don’t like him then nobody is forcing you to watch him. We all have our own preferences. Some like Jimmy Carr and his annoying laugh I can’t stand him.

Have you heard of viewing figures?
