At a time when standups are displaying so much invention – when Stewart Lee is turning the art form inside out; when Joe Lycett is using his comedy for mischievous good; when Sara Pascoe is refusing to dumb down her material – is this time for Carr to pivot to something thoughtful and playful? No, he thinks, far better to double down on the brand and attract the people who really will laugh at jokes like: “My girlfriend snores quite a lot. But luckily I’ve got these noise-cancelling fists.” No one can deny that that sounds like a joke, but who’s likely to laugh at it? Someone who thinks the concept of beating your wife is inherently funny, or someone who actually likes comedy?

>Stewart Lee is turning the art form inside out
as a huge Lee fan who went to his last 5 shows, he's definitely run out of fresh stuff to do. he's still good for a few inspired bits per show but there's been a marked falloff since Content Provider.
A strange feature of Natural Born Killer is the impression with which Carr wants to leave his audience. He seems desperate for us to believe that he is, among other things, a rapist and a paedophile. One joke – one Carr no doubt considers edgy – ends with him dismissing a 23-year-old woman because when he mistakenly thought she was a child he was interested in shagging her. Carr could portray himself as any version of himself; why is he obsessed with masquerading as a paedophile? If it’s “just a joke”, why isn’t it a better joke?
Most bafflingly, Carr uses his special to moralise about subjects such as rape and abortion in a way that is impossible to take seriously because of the material it follows. “D’you wanna know my rape fantasy? Someone goes to jail for rape,” comes nine irony-free seconds after he has joked about fancying his chances of not getting caught raping someone because so few rapists are convicted.
this is such a fricking homosexual review that it almost makes me want to defend jimmy carr
Stewart Lee is past it. Joe Lycett never had it. I've never heard of Sara Pascoe. But lets be honest Jimmy Carr won't be funny either. I know I know the Guardian is shit and generally the opposite of what they say is true. But Jimmy Carr is a panel show hack.

....and? The author thinks jokingly inserting oneself into the position of a rapist makes one sympathetic to rapists or something?
It's more embarrasing than he's appearing on random American podcasts lately talking about random shit as if he's some philosopher. Whys he trying so hard to break america. He doesn't fit in at all and looks like a corpse.
"And team captain - John Richardson!" >audience claps
"John has gotten really good at acrobatics. He spent the last 9 years learning to do the splits. And recently he did. He split with his wife Lucy." >camera cuts to John grinning and biting his pen >audience claps and boos >camera cuts back to Jimmy shrugging and going "What?"
"And our guest team captain Romesh Ranganathan."
Post 2010 Jimmy Carr is utter shit anyway. He repeats jokes, tries way too hard and keeps doing that moronic laugh. His appearances in panel shows made it really obvious he just doesn't have any new content. Every other "comedian" there made an effort to say something relevant while he just repeated shit from his old DVDs.
He should take a break, go to Africa or some shit.kj
Jimmy Carr isn't that funny and he's always been a leftoid shill so it's nice to see them turning on him for not updating his programming, similar to Rowling.
Won't be long now until many of the current leftoid talking heads e.g. the "journalist" who wrote that review, are cancelled for not openly supporting child molestation.
Rowling was literally turning her characters into homosexuals years after she'd written her books and blackwashing ones that she'd specifically described as white, not to mention the millions she's poured into the Labour Party.
She was absolutely a leftist up until she disagreed on one part of the mantra so they hung her out to dry (see also Graham Linehan), you don't have to be a troony to enjoy leftists getting stabbed in the back by their own kind.
>you don't have to be a troony to enjoy leftists getting stabbed in the back by their own kind.
thats some mental gymnastics right there >noo stop enjoying trannies crying, because only trannies do that
The review is right. It's soulless, robotic, cynical shite. The comedy equivalent of "painting by numbers". To be fair, it's probably his best set, but that's not saying much.
If you're a moron/fan of his, you'll probably enjoy it.
I saw that headline and was hoping I was in for a good time with his special. Turned it off after 15 minutes. It’s like an edgy and less funny Demetri Martin. It’s just rapid fire jokes one after another, and felt reminiscent of someone reading through r/Jokes.
Means it might be worth trying at least. If that long-faced soi creature thinks it's horrible it might actually be funny to people with a sense of humor.
his comedy is "safe-edgy" which is what all ""edgy"" comedians are now
people like nick mullen who this board jerks off are only like 1 step removed from being jimmy carr, there are no real actual edgy comedians anymore

Not surprising, he ended up on all the shittiest yank comedy podcasts last year pretending he'd had a run in with "cancel culture" when in reality he'd just been made fun of for being a hack whos material hasn't changed in 15 years.
He put a 10 minute clip of his last special on twitter and half of it was just him hyping up the material to the audience like "Ohhh get ready this isn't your grandpa and grandma's edgy comedy! No this is DANGEROUS"
Only for the second half of the clip, the actual jokes, to be the most tired and predictable 9/11 and Diana gags that would have been played out by 2003 nevermind 2023. Either his ego was trying to protect him from reality or he is genuinely so stupid he can't tell the difference between people dunking on him for being a lazy comic and people being outraged/offended by his jokes.
That's the impression I get of him too. The fact that his "epic heckler takedowns" are mostly old jokes that most people know, should tell you what kind of comic he is.
This guy should have just leaned into being a Chud. That's who he is deep inside, but he love money more than anything else so he follows the BBC troony line. This Black person named his son ROCKEFELLER. He loves money.
If the Guardian or Kotaku says something is bad then it's good. That's basically a written rule
Sometimes a thing is just shit, like your opinions. Carr is the smarmiest establishment lapdog going.
Ha-HA

this is what the author gives as examples of good stand up

I bet he'd give her 5/5
Hahaha vibrator.
Genius

She isn't
i'm not clicking that
>far better to double down on the brand and attract the people who really will laugh at jokes
Uh yes?
Catering to your audience is considered white supremacy or something now.
It's funny because it's shocking. If people were numb to it, they wouldn't be shocked, and the joke wouldn't work.
this is such a fricking homosexual review that it almost makes me want to defend jimmy carr
Lycett is a homosexual p*do
>“My girlfriend snores quite a lot. But luckily I’ve got these noise-cancelling fists.”
Just reading his joke made me laugh.
>My girlfriend snores quite a lot. But luckily I’ve got these noise-cancelling fists.
Lol legitimately fricking hilarious

Some things we do not joke about anon
You can joke about anything. That's the whole point.
Yeah man, that's also what I think, but moralgays beg to differ(and to be stoned)
Sit down you idiot. Nobody cares what you think.
Frick off homosexual moron
yeah im sure Chapelle talking about molesting Macaulay Culkin was a serious take as well.
It's shocking to think that The Guardian was well respected and appreciated, right up until the 2010s wave of cultural pozz
Jim Davidson is hilarious, if Jimmy is anywhere near that level then I'll definitely check him out.
He's no Roy Chubby Brown, but then who is these days?
>Jim Davidson is hilarious
>Rome - 2 seasons
>Big Break - 14 seasons
KWAB
It's more embarrasing than he's appearing on random American podcasts lately talking about random shit as if he's some philosopher. Whys he trying so hard to break america. He doesn't fit in at all and looks like a corpse.
In the UK, his stand up doesn't get anywhere near as much buzz now.
He is the guy who does 8 out of 10 cats Countdown.
At last Jon Richardson has his revenge.
>OH N-
>"So I guess we can make sad and alone jokes again."
>Sean dies
>Jon's life slowly falls apart again
hate to see it honestly
HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Oof I can imagine the next cats does countdown.

And that's when I'd click off.
>NEXT UP ON DAVE, A BRAND NEW EPISODE OF THE RICHARDSONS
loving every laugh
stand-up isn’t funny and it never was. /thread.
>What is Rickey Gervis
His last special was woeful
he was on triggernometry the other day saying we need more immigrants and it wasn't a joke
Well he must have fit right in with the israeli MI6 shill and his pet goy 'Chewey Theroux then

That's my gripe with him, he does it too much
Didn't know they hated him, time to check out the special

>noo stop enjoying trannies crying, because only trannies do that
It would be funny if it was fat Jimmy Carr and not the puppet tv show host version.
Why the long face?
Nonce
>*cackles fakishly*
I hate the panel show appearing class.
What kind of things does Ralph Jones enjoy?
There are literally 0 (zero) funny standups from the UK
UK comedians are not funny
The review is right. It's soulless, robotic, cynical shite. The comedy equivalent of "painting by numbers". To be fair, it's probably his best set, but that's not saying much.
If you're a moron/fan of his, you'll probably enjoy it.
5 out of 6 people enjoy gang rape jokes.
I dunno. Perchance?
>Ralph Jones
Make him laugh.
Hey Ralphy
why the long face

Jimmy carr is genuinely the most unfunny moron in comedy. I really do mean that. He's literally performing fricking knock knock jokes about feminism.
I fricking get it, I love laughing at b***hes and gays too. but don't give me low hanging fruit. Jimmy Carr feels like a comedian from fricking 1800.
What's Bill Cosby's favorite flavor of Jello? GrrrrrRAPE.
This, edgy jokes can be funny...if they're funny. His material is something a 14 year old came up with
his comedy is "safe-edgy" which is what all ""edgy"" comedians are now
people like nick mullen who this board jerks off are only like 1 step removed from being jimmy carr, there are no real actual edgy comedians anymore
I like safe edgy, besides, you can't expect everyone to go out with a bang like kramer.
>Jimmy carr is genuinely the most unfunny moron in comedy.

So he forgot he was watching comedy?
Amy Schumer was unironcally funny when she just started out. I don't care what anyone says.
>Jimmy Carr
It's gonna be shit. The guys is obnoxious and his laugh is fake as frick.
Huh-HAAa
I'm glad the tide has finally turned against this hack, always hated him.

Pureblood, bros, our response?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQj6IgegGYo
It's impossible for British people to be funny because of their atrocious accents.
Any love for Katherine Ryan in here? She's funny and does a show with Carr
I love her breasts if that's what you mean.
Shite what a wild bloke
>guy with 10000 netflix specials: I'M BEING CANCELLED!
Are people not tired of this shit yet? Can't we go back to actual comedy?
tax dodging c**t
they should deport him and lock him up
Yes. Send him to America with the other c**ts.
This guy should have just leaned into being a Chud. That's who he is deep inside, but he love money more than anything else so he follows the BBC troony line. This Black person named his son ROCKEFELLER. He loves money.
