Puttergirl: this is my first participation in a poll of yours (which again is so much fun)...are they all so hard to figure out?

Hi Pamy: I think I am one of the few here who have liked Cory from the start. My favorite has always been Dave.

KONAMOUSE: thank you!

I sent Dave Mordal an e-mail late last night. I pretty much just told him what I post here (about the show and the comics).

This morning I received 2 e-mails. The first one answered my question to him (Do you know if there will be another "Last Comic Standing"?): "There is a rumor that there will be a last comic standing two".

The second e-mail quoted a sentence I wrote ("I got to admire Dat later just because he made it even with all the crap thrown at him"). Geez, my grammar is terrible! Anyway, his reply: "So do I".

I voted for Corey, thought she was the best.

I just watched the tape again and the look on that guy's face is just tooo funny!!
Corey was by far the best, she had great material and was very comfortable on stage.
Tess was the most disappointing. IMO with the way she has been 'I am the best' 'I will win' I expected her to be sooo much funnier. I didn't laugh once at her set.

FYI, the Comedy channel will be replaying the whole series on Saturday the 9th for those of us who missed some of the first episodes. I think it will be a hoot to go back and see the comics we now "know" and to see Buddy Hacket for one last time (he was a judge).

I haven't posted on this subject yet so forgive me if this has already been covered. I stopped watching after Dave Mordal was sent packing. He was too funny to have left so soon. Anyone who has ever owned an Escort had to be rolling in the floor hearing his monolog on that dopey car. He had the Escort thing nailed to a tee. Dat was okay but will wear thin after a while but Dave jokes on stuff that everybody has experienced and can identify with. After reading the above posts, I'll have to watch again to see Ralphie.

Thank you Donut and Jan....couldn't have said it myself.

I used to really like Ralphie but after that last set I really didn't.

I enjoyed Cory's set, pleasantly surprised.

Disappointed with Tess. Voss I just don't like. and Dat's was getting old.

I do hope Ralphie is out, he just rubs me the wrong way.

I just spoke to a friend of mine who lives in LA and is a comedian. He told me he knows Rich Voss and Cory Cahaney for quite a while. He said Voss is a great guy and very funny, and that Cory is not a nice person. She is really nasty he said. He also told me that the rumor is that Ralphie May used (or still does) write comedy for Jay Mohr. Isn't that interesting?

I dont like Voss, so glad to have your perspective Ginger. I wonder tho how hard it must be for a female to be on the stand-up circuit. The more I read about the premise for this show, the more I think Dat Phan fits the needs of the network, so I'm betting he is a shoe -in.

Thanks for the info, Ginger! Very interesting.

If Ralphie wins, can we scream that it was fixed? ;)

I still believe that Dave was the best comedian. He was way to good for them and that's why he lost.

Thanks Ginger for info.

Remember the first show? Jay Mohr mentioned that he had never heard of Dave before the show. He mentioned how happy he was that he made it into the house and that he really liked him.. I have heard Mohr say in interviews that he could not be a judge because he knew so many of the comics. This is not to say he couldn't influence the original votes of course.

I read somewhere that Dave said NBC really liked him. I think they liked the fact that Dave and Rich were able to give them "good material" for the show (when they needed "fill-in" time since Dave and Rich work so well off each other).

Did anyone watch the MTV Bash of Carson Daly? I noticed the end credits. Ralphie was listed one of two Executive Consultants (don't know what that is).

A reminder: tonight's show, which is the last one, will be a 2-hour finale. TV Guide Online has the following listing:

"8:00 PM EST - NBC - August 5, 2003

Last Comic Standing - 120 min.

Taking a maddeningly familiar reality-series approach, the two-hour finale promises to churn out a lot of rehash and hype before (finally!) announcing a winner. It begins with the 10 original housemates reuniting for a question-and-answer session that recaps their experiences and the show's memorable moments, including the infamous hide-and-seek joke on Dat Phan (the other players rigged the game so that they never looked for him). In the second hour, the five finalists who garnered the most viewer votes are cut to two, both of whom then perform five-minute sets. The winner gets a talent deal with NBC and a half-hour special on Comedy Central. Jay Mohr is the host."

Based on last wk's performance only (not voter favorites) the only 3 the winner should be between are: Corey, Rich, & Ralphie. Tess just was a let down & Dat Phan's screaching mock Mother is way over played & quite hard to listen too.

Going by last week's show, I'd say we need to start over....not one of them made me laugh and I'm easy. Now tonight, in the finale (i'm watching now) they're all funny, especially after seeing the rejects! I even liked Rich tonight which is truly a first for me ;-)

too late to edit so I'll just add that it's all in the editing for the show........unbelievable, Rich had me in tears......he very well may win this and deservedly so..Ralphie too (my fave along with picked on dat) If only they had shown what they did tonight all along, I would have been a Vos fan sooner.....he's hilarious (esp the bathtub snake talk) LOL :D

Thanks for the tidbits Pbnj. I really appreciate knowing beforehand.

When the winner is announced will you let me know? If you can, just be sure to start your post with 'SPOILER'.

This West Coaster would appreciate it.

People voted for the winner last week right? So it won't matter if Rich is way better this week, right?

ATTENTION: SPOILER!!!!

Hey Abby! Well the first hour was pretty much a waste of time. They brought all ten comics back and just replayed some scenes from the house and then talked with them a bit.

Then they started the eliminations. Tess was the first to go with only 7% of the vote. Next to go was Cory with I think 12%. The third person to go was Rich. (forgot his percentage) So now it's down to Ralphie and Dat. My two least favorites. They are each performing one last time and then they will have the final results.

I'll let ya know. :)

ATTENTION: SPOILER!!! DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU WANNA KNOW THE WINNER!!

With 35% of the vote Dat wins.

Whatever. I wanted Dave Mordal to win. :(

Bummer. I think Vos, Mordal, and Ralphie all got done in by the Crossfire curse.

I wanted all of them to win.
