Advancing

DC Berry
Bonnie McFarland
Alonzo Bodden
Kathleen Madigan
Ant
Todd Glass
Jessica Kirson
Jim Norton
Corey Holcomb
Sue Costello

Well, there are a few that went through that I didn't think were that great and some that didn't that I thought were hilarious, but since I'm judging on a snippet, I'm cool with that. I did want the "fathead" guy to go through, though!

Interesting concept. I liked it.

okay, this guy is hilarious! with the golf joke, about how golf is the only sport you can pretend to play while you are having a conversation and not look weird.

the girl that followed was also funny.

i'm losing track of everyone's name.

Oh, Hermione, it's just practice for Big Brother.

I liked the old fella last night, and I liked him again tonight (Maybe his name was Jim Higgins?).

The married couple...liked the guy last night but not tonight, didn't like the gal last night but did tonight...so I guess they just average out to be one.

If the stripper girl makes it in, it is not because she has a good comedy routine or delivery.

It was long for me too, and I can't remember the names either. At least they're not dragging it out before they actually get to the house though. I liked the Iranian guy. The long haired guy that got the last ticket - not funny. I liked Retha, I thought she would make it for sure. Now she's thinking of quitting comedy? Poor thing, hope she rethought that.

Okay...just for the record...Paul V. (the guy with the boogy man joke) and Juston McKinney (the former cop) was robbed!

That gal with the angry eyebrows was just too weird and not at all funny. Lots of disappointment from my end.

I liked both of those fellows.

The "angry eyebrows" gal is Jessica Kirson. She has been around for quite a while now and I've never found her to be funny. Her main thing seems to be about making faces and there is just nothing new that she does.

I think there is a lot more that goes into the decision than who has the best performance. They are trying to "cast" the show for the house as well. They did pick quite a few strong personalities.

I can't keep any of the comedians names straight, but I was glad to see the darkly funny guy who talked about keeping the expensive call girls head advance.

And I ADORED seeing The Don, Voss, even though we didn't get to hear much from him. I'm already skeptical that this season will be as good as last year with Dave Mordal and Voss, but I'm excited to find out.

None of them were that funny. I snickered a few times but hopefully when they have more airtime, we will see who really is funny.

Well, after lurking for several years I feel it is finally time to participate in a thread! This one doesn't seem too big and scary. Here are my thoughts about the show (I am also a first time watcher):

Alonzo and Dan Ahdoot made me laugh the most with DC Benny coming in a close second. Like others, I was also disappointed Paul V. and Frank did not make the cut. The old guy, Jim Wiggins, was funny too! Jessica Kirson left a lot to be desired and I was a little turned off by the attitudes of Jim Norton and Todd Glass. However, their characters will probably add some interesting elements to the show.

Can't wait until next Tuesday!

Why would the judges ask some of them questions and not the others?

They might have asked them all questions and just showed some of them. Who knows, it is all in the editing!

I think they asked everybody questions, they just showed us the funny times. Heavily edited, but it's ok by me.

I have seen Todd Glass perform dozens of times in Los Angeles at Largo. He is pretty funny - but comedians "get" him more than real people do. He does a lot of insider material. I was thrilled to see someone I know try out so I hope he goes on. I think an "insider" will be fun to watch in the house, tormenting the amateurs.

I think Jay pointed out in one of the intros that some comics' careers are on the line. It seems true - if Todd Glass or Will Durst audition and fail, they are doomed in the comedy community. But they saw their colleagues get huge boosts (Rich Voss, Dave Mordahl, Ralphie May) and they decided to go for it. Very brave, more brave than the new guys!

I hope Todd Glass goes far - he works very hard.

I saw Todd Glass in Atlantic City this year - he was very funny, but he annoyed the shit out of me last night.
I also think Paul V. was robbed, to me he was the funniest guy there.
Madelane, have you ever seen a comedian in LA named Peter Vouras. He is a friend of mine and he performs with Todd Glass quite often.

I think next year I am going to try out for this. I have done standup comedy in the past and would love to try this.
