'Last Comic' takes final bow on Comedy Central

October 12, 2004

NEW YORK -- The last episode of ''Last Comic Standing 3'' will, in fact, stand.

The NBC reality show's third installment is being shot and will be shown Saturday at 7 p.m. -- not on NBC, but on cable's Comedy Central. (A repeat is set for 10 a.m. Sunday.)

Host and executive producer Jay Mohr posted a message on his Web site Thursday stating the show had been canceled.

First-season comics Dave Mordal and Rich Vos and the second season's John Heffron and Alonzo Bodden will compete for the $250,000 prize.

Luvmykitties, other boards are saying Alonzo Bodden too. I think the posters who saw it came to the same conclusion.

Thanks Ladytex!
I will definitely be tuning in.

Thanks Fruitbat. I just wanted to make sure people knew that I thought Jay said Boden - but I wasn't absolutely positive. I'm not a good lip reader

NOw here's what I find strange...
I was watching NBC at 8pm and they said that Last Comic Standing will not be shown tonight but will be on Comedy Central (but they didn't announce when) and to find out who the winner of Last Comic Standing, go to NBC.com.

I went to the website and didn't see any information at all!

I checked my online guide and it shows Last Comic Standing Sat. at 8pm (eastern) but it looks like a repeat.
Jay's website hasn't been updated either.
Hopefully these just haven't been updated yet and I will see the finale.

Thank goodness you posted that Ladytex or I wouldn't have known!

Did anyone hear the announcement NBC was supposed to make tonight about the winner? I'm dying to know but couldn't sit through even one ep. of that awful "Father of the Pride" to find out. If anyone knows, please post...inquiring minds want to know!

Ya know, if it wasn't for Third Watch and The West Wing, I would have no use for NBC at all. How petty can they be?

I wish NBC would've given us the precentage of the vote that each of the final 4 got i would like to see how close dave was.

I would like to know too.
I think Heffron's bad night helped push Alonzo over Dave.

Don't get me wrong, I like Alonzo and I like Heffron too, but Heffron tanked at the finale and even I wouldn't have voted for him. I think most of the season 1 votes went to Mordal and most of the season 2 votes went to Alonzo. If Heffron had a better night, he might have split the season 2 votes and Dave might have won. Only if!

I'm just fuming at NBC over this whole finale fiasco.

I think NBC handled this whole thing horribly, and I think most of the people who watch the show were quite angry. And I'm guessing that this means there will not be another season of last comic standing?

They did handle it very badly. What made it even worse was their attempt to "blackmail" us into watching "Father of the Pride" to find out the results. Yeah,ok,cancel the show I have watched in the last episode,then expect me to watch another dumb show,so you can "gift" me with the winner's name.
Give me a freakin break.

Did anyone watch the Father of th Pride marathon to see how they announced the winner? I was just curious if it was a big "to-do" or if they just posted a picture for five seconds and voiced over "the winner is..."

Hobbs, just before the FOTP marathon, they announced that it was cancelled and that the final show will be shown on Comedy Central, and that if you want to know who the winner is, just check out www.nbc.com

Thats all that was said about that...

I'm so glad Comedy Central showed the finale.
I think the comics deserved a finale.

For anyone that watched...
does anyone know who the women were at the end that came up and hugged Alonzo?

I thought when he was thanking people, he would have introduced them, but didn't.

I am curious about that too. The short heavy woman who was first on stage must have been his agent, the black woman, his mother and the tall slender light brown hair, his girlfriend.

I didn't think any of the women were family because when he was thanking people - his mom, dad, sister, brother - he never looked or gestured to anyone on the stage.

The short heavy woman and the black woman both hugged Alonzo a lot. Good friends? One is girlfriend?
We'll probably never know...

He looked uncomfortable. I did notice he was not relating to the people on stage much other than hugging them when they grabbed him but I do think that was his mom.

Earlier in the show they showed a shot of her in the audience when his set finished and the look on her face clearly read "MOM". She looked like she was close to tears she was so proud.

Agent and girlfriend is my guess for the women.

I saw John, Tammy, Kathleen and Corey perform in Trenton, NJ on Saturday night (3/12/05). They were all great. Tammy was right on point with her "What is wrong with them" routine. John was bounding around the stage and did a mix of old and new material (really like the frozen nerf ball routine). I don't care for Corey's humor and bashing of all the women he's ever been involved with. Kathleen had the most material. Everyone else finished their sets before intermission (with red lights to indicate time ending). Kathleen had the entire second set after intermission and went on much longer to close out the show.
