The BBC seem to be specialising in finding the least funny people ever and telling everyone they are funny.

Do you know,
I sat down to watch it on iPlayer the other day, really not expecting much at all. Too much of him does my nut in. BUt I actually rather enjoyed it. It was like an extended opening sequence of HIGNFY :D
The only bit I didn't like was the Mystery Guest bit
pointless... and some of the family Guy-style asides were a bit annoying

Aye,
that was stupid. Also, this whole non-sequitur thing that everyone does in comedy now just annoys me. Apart from Seth McFarlane, who has been doing it long enough to pull it off.
They put people like Frankie Boyle on shows and they get complaints, then further complaints when the first complaints are found to be wrong. At least if they put shit comedians on TV they won't be riling up the fucktards who don't get the difference between jokes and being offensive.

His shows are all on Channel 4.
As a result, they don't get anywhere near as many complaints as BBC Shows that offend. This is due to mongfaced titminges like The Daily Mail who believe that the BBC should merely be News, Sport and Songs of Praise.

I like it
The best thing they did was "The New Sound" in Series two. I'll allow criticism of everything else ;)

He has a really annoying verbal tick/gimmick
where he raises his voice up to squeaky pitch at the end of a sentence. It's ok the first few times but I find myself hating him after about 20 minutes of it.

Meh.
I've seen his stand up a couple of times. It never made me laugh. It all just seemed to be being kooky for the sake of it. Oooh! Fluorescent Madagascan Ant Rocket! LOL!

I find he fucking hillarious
There's somthing joyous about his stuff which is a rare thing. British stand up tends to fall into two categories these days. Those who just stand there slagging people off and BIll Bailey.

Bailey is my favourite surreal one. I used to like Eddie Izzard. Noel Fielding's stuff is never particularly clever and it annoys me that most girls I know like him mainly for his looks.
I like the grumpy ones who complain about everything including themselves. David Mitchel, Charlie Brooker, Stuart Lee particularly.

but I can't stand the way he is advertised as the funniest man ever.

I think Russell Howard is my fave atm
I'm a bit disappointed with the new show though but it's OK I suppose.

after seeing him live I went off him.
Far too much material about his family and when he was 8 etc
same for Jimmy Carr and Frankie Boyle - extremely offensive jokes for cheap laughs. That's what I come to b3ta for, and that's free.
With Dylon put anything you've seen him in down as mediocre, no not him, his stand up is second to none! I beleive one critic put him on par with Spike Millian.

its the obviously scripted 'randomness' that annoys me
