I haven't seen Peter before. I pretty much only went to Largo and I usually saw Todd or Kevin Seccia or Dave Cross or Bob Odenkirk or all the other regulars there. It's been about a year since I've been.

Good luck if you try out next year, Ginger.

Man, Ginger, just the fact that you are considering it is galactically brave to me! You go, girl! How cool!

Yes, incredibly brave, comedy is so harsh.

The feedback is instantaneous. I'd just die if I were to get up in front of a crowd, and have them not laugh.

Man, Cross, can you imagine the horror?!

I think that I would moon them and run off the stage laughing hysterically.

I would be a good one to put in any comic's crowd because I laugh at most anything.

I've often thought that I missed my calling. "I know I'm funnier than Dat Phan".

I, of course do not clam to be funnier that Ralphie, Rich, Corey or Tess. But---- they were funnier than Dat Phan too! Heck, lots of folks are funnier than Dat Phan. I laugh at what ya'll write here sometimes more than I laugh @ these wantabe funny people.

well we know who that is. If he is that bad, the others will just put him up the first week and the audience will vote him out.

There were a few that I thought should have gone into the finals and they didn't pick them.

here is the official site for Last Comic Standing.

Last Comic Standing

you can get a preview of the next episode, pictures of the 20 finalists (although only 1 at a time) and the comics "best" jokes. If you enter the site, you also get a synopsis of the last show.

Here is commentary from Dave Mordal

Week 1
by Dave Mordal

I so wanted to start off on a positive note on Last Comic Standing Two.
I did. I really did. Then along came ANT.
Last year, people were mystified as to why Dat Phan would do the same jokes every episode. ANT is doing the same jokes one year later.
He had a year to write something. Anything.

Okay, ANT. We get it, apparently you're gay. Please have something besides that.
Please?
I'm at the point where I believe that the entire homosexual community is begging you to move on to something.
I'm a recovering alcoholic. If every comedy bit I did was about how sober I am, I'd start drinking.
Then every bit would be about how drunk I am.
ANT, you're better than this. Let's see another subject.

Which brings me to Bob and Ross, the Talent Scouts.
No matter what you think of who they pick, you have to give them credit for sitting through hundreds of hours of some of the best and the worst of stand-up comedy. Even the best of comedy over that long a period will make you question your reason for living. That being said, if either of these two ever kill themselves, there'll be no need for a suicide note. We'll understand.
If I had a hat, it would be off to them for making this show possible.

Now here's the deal I'll make with the comic stripper. You don't do comedy, I'll keep my clothes on.
I'll make the same deal with Buckstar.
Buckstar is what's wrong with entertainment today. So many untalented people get ahead in this business by being pushy. Buckstar really should not have been shown. It's just going to encourage people like me to become persistent. I can't imagine where I'd be today with a little assertiveness and self-esteem.

All right. Now the positive side.
Dan Naturman, Jay London, Jimmy Wiggins. It was just plain fun watching them. Dan made me laugh out loud. Jay London reminded me never to judge a book by its cover.
And Jimmy Wiggins.
Let me tell you about Jimmy Wiggins.
Jimmy was the first comic to ever be hard up enough to take me on the comedy circuit with him. My road was paved with the wisdom of the comics I worked with and Jimmy tarred most of it. When he's in your area, go see him. You'll learn something.

See you after Vegas,
David D. Mordal

I thought Ant was funny, but I had never seen him before, so I get how that could get real old, real fast. Crossfire, is that why you thought he was lame?

His comment about the stripper--ROFL. She really was painfully unfunny. And the joke about her dad just made me go, "Ew."

Thanks for sharing, Essence! I'm looking forward to watching tonight. Anyone gonna be around?

At Ain't it cool news, they mentioned that the stripper had done comedy a total of ONE DAY before this audition. She did it for TV exposure only. She got what she wanted , I guess.

Hi Herm. I wish I could say that, just to be nice, but I think he was already gone by the time I started watching last year. I've never seen him before. I just did not find him to be all that funny in the classic sense. The material seemed to be lacking punchlines.

I think he'd be better as a crowd warmer, or an MC, than a headline act.

Aww, Crossfire, you ARE nice. Just because you didn't find someone funny doesn't make you not. I don't think I have ever seen you be mean. -- Yes. - No.

There is just something about Jessica that makes me uncomfortable. I WANT to like her, but I just don't think she is that funny. The guy that followed, Gary, I liked his spoof on cheerleaders. "B-E A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E! Oh I thought you meant, "Be gregarious."

I thought Corey's interaction with the judge was funnier than his routine was! It stalled in places, I thought. Seemed to get good audience response, though.

Tim's NBC's new reality show- "Whose God is it anyway?" was funny!!!

Sorry I'm not playing tonight, I'm keeping an eye on our leadership debate on tv. If I can catch it later, I'll drop in with some comments.

Kathleen was pretty funny, too, but part of that was she seemed comfortable and enjoying herself and that was refreshing.

Ant is a little manic, I think. He does make me laugh, though, but I can see how his schtick would get old.

Hey Cross, that's okay!
