For years now, I've been trying to work out why I seem to be the only one here who thinks this bloke is a talentless shob.
I've never said anything before - because "If you don't like it, don't say anything, ", and I agree with that, but what do people see in this?

He’s consistently persistent
I’ll give him that
Otherwise “I’m not his audience” either, and that’s fine… so it’s not just you

I'm as British as one can get, so it's at least not /entirely/ that.
I suppose it is a bit pythonesque, in its way.
Oh well - I'll go back to sticking to the rules and keep my distaste hidden :-)

Don't worry, you are not the only one
I find it as funny as laughing at someone who has a mental disability.
Still, some people like it, and at least it isn't AI...

I wouldn't call him talentless, he seems inventive and quite committed to the bit
for me it was more I liked the first one someone posted. I like oddness and wierdness, but I prefer when it's authentic rather than deliberate, at least for repeated viewings

I think it's lovely that someone can have such commitment to a thing that they enjoy, that's not hurting anyone else and that make others laugh
He's clearly not talentless, the retro stylings and effects are well researched at least.
I'm reckon in years to come he will be regarded by some cool kids on whatever replaces tiktok as one of the great performance artists, or they'll be confused and think it's just 70s tv.

Sure. I don’t expect people to stop liking it
I’m rather gratified to discover that it’s not just me who finds it hard to like though.
As to what future generations will make of it though, that assumes that The Algorithm will show it to them, and not some AI rage bait because engagement.

I would probably think so too…

Fear not. It’s not funny in the slightest.

I'm late to the party as usual but
I concur. I liken him to Harry Hill, another "visual" comedian who simply does not float my boat so I no longer watch them.

After watching a few of his vids I don't feel the need to watch more
I kinda know what to expect. I guess that means he is samey.
I think he's very clever and it's a good schtick but been there seen it

I've had almost the inverse experience...
My first impression was that he's a complete ripoff of a Reeves & Mortimer sketch or background character, but his persistence has worked on me.
I don't need to see every one of his films but the ones that are worth watching from start to finish more than justify the more disposable offerings, imho.
It's a very niche kind of satire and I'm very happy to see it on b3ta.

Not my thing
for various reasons, some of which are already mentioned...but I did dismiss it perhaps unfairly quickly but having read the above, I'm not hating myself quite as much
