# all those "jokes" he tells where he just points some silly/obvious/dumb situation/object/person out
and then stands there like a mong waiting for the forced laughter, it's like he just says "I just pointed something obvious out, now laugh"

fuck that, give me Bill Hicks any day

# I think comparing Bill Kicks to Seinfeld
is like comparing a sniffle to Ebola.

# damn straight
the other US show I really hated at the same time Shitefeld was being aired is The Larry Shite Show

...and they had the gaul to cancel Lucky Louie

# It's the reason why Bill Hicks never really made it big
People like Gallagher, Carrottop, and Seinfeld were hugely popular because they didn't challenge anyone to think. Breaking fruit with a hammer, making jokes by making a prop-based pun and asking questions like "What is it with plane/hospital/junk food?" and all the tards think "Oh yeh! I've eaten food!"

Part of the problem was also Bill's ambition to be a big-star, but the tv shows wouldn't air the majority of his jokes.

Edit: my writing has gone to fuck today, apologies for those who cannot understand.

# he did do tv shows without the copious swearing
somewhere I've got a betamax tape with an episode of the comedy show "Paramount City" with Bill Hicks on, no swearing and his jokes come across just as well

# yes, this is true
but Letterman was the pinnacle for him, and he often had a lot of jokes cut from his sets on that, ending in his whole set being cut after his last letterman performance. The masses like to consume shite, originality is often despised at first.
