Lee Mack - Funniest thing on British TV at the moment (1 Viewer)

Otis · Sep 17, 2016

Agree?

Anyone on here that doesn't find him funny? I haven't met anyone yet who has said so.

He's certainly got a touch of Eric Morecambe about him and I think he makes Would I lie to You the best comedy programme on TV these days.

Pipehitterz · Sep 17, 2016

I don't like him.
He reminds me of someone's dad making jokes.
Sorry not for me at all.

Macca · Sep 17, 2016

I like him because it's simple comedy as it was meant to be. Not clever or political just gentle laughs

eastwoodsdustman · Sep 17, 2016

I can't stand him. I have to turn the telly over when he's on.

Otis · Sep 17, 2016

Okay, first two people I have ever met who don't like him!

Knew someone would somewhere in the world and the two people seem to be both on SBT!!

Thought he was great in Not going out especially in the Tim Vine days

Liquid Gold · Sep 17, 2016

Not for me either, never really made me laugh. Comedy equivalent of beige

andrew.roberts · Sep 17, 2016

I think he´s a bit "marmite", Personally I like him

Otis · Sep 17, 2016

Very surprised. Would never think anyone would describe him as beige.

Oh well, each and every to their own.

I know some people don't find Eric Morecambe funny and I now know those people to be idiots, so there you go!

Nick · Sep 17, 2016

Can't stand him

bringbackrattles · Sep 17, 2016

Would I lie To You is the best comedy panel show on the telly. Lee Mack is brilliant but so are the regulars too. When you talk about who is funny you'll always get a mixed reaction, I find Jason Manford unfunny but he seems to be popular. I said recently Billy Connelly is my favourite comic but someone said he thought he's crap. Comedy is subjective then ?

Liquid Gold · Sep 17, 2016

I really like Stewart Lee and I know he's definitely not to many people's taste. Also love it when Charlie Brooker does any of his wipes.

Houchens Head · Sep 17, 2016

Comedy can be very fickle. I used to really like Lee Mack but although I haven't gone off him, so to speak, I can give him a miss. The same with Peter Kay. He was the funniest man on earth at one time. I would watch everything he did, but it can wear thin at times. My favourite comedian at the moment (and has been for a while) is Nina Conti, the female ventriloquist. Makes me laugh every time I watch her!

plus the fact her mouth visibly moves so not much in the way of ventriloquism imo

Nick · Sep 17, 2016

Well I like Stewart Lee, Charlie Brooker and Lee Mack!!

I agree with BBR, Would I Lie To You is the funniest thing on television.

Funny for me ...

Lee Mack
Eddie Izzard
Stewart Lee
Bill Bailey
Tim Vine
Billy Connelly
Dave Gorman
Stu Francis
Ricky Gervais
Woody Allen
Eric Morecambe

Not funny... (not even as much as a break into a smile)

Harry Hill
Lenny Henry
Victoria Wood
Russell Howard

olderskyblue · Sep 17, 2016

Saw Lee mack live. He was brilliant

Sky_Blue_Daz · Sep 17, 2016

Been watching Bill Burr on Netflix he is pretty good
He also has an animated show on it called F is for family, I can recommend that

Pipehitterz · Sep 17, 2016

Anyone for Russell brand?

Yep! With a fuckin' great target on his forehead!

chiefdave · Sep 17, 2016

Been watching a lot of Lewis Black recently. Most of his DVDs can be found on youtube, would definitely recommend if you like your comedy angry and rant filled.

Otis · Sep 17, 2016

Never heard of him.

May check it out.

Back in the days when I lived in that London, we used to go to recordings of the Sketch Show. Lee Mack was the standout there, for sure.

But then I seem to be the only person I know who likes him! Tried to persuade one friend to watch Not Going Out and now I don't think she trusts my judgement on, well... anything.

(Incidentally, warm-up for the Sketch Show was a pre-fame Jimmy Carr. Same act but... one time he annoyed a load of Christians who spent the time arguing with him until he was broken, and spent his time apologising for any offence he'd caused)

dutchman · Sep 17, 2016

Lee Peaked during the Going Out tour and hasn't been as good since...

bringbackrattles · Sep 17, 2016

Funniest people has to be Coventry City F.C.

Monners · Sep 17, 2016

Like him on WILTY. Funniest guest on there is Bob Mortimer. He made me cry last week.

Macca · Sep 18, 2016

Anything but student comedy

He does punch quite hard doesn't he. Would have thought he would have mellowed in his old age.

I'm sure I read recently that he'd had heart surgery ?

Nick · Sep 18, 2016

I do like stuff that Greg Davies does. Cuckoo, Man Down! I think it is just the randomness and the way he says "you little bellend".

Yeah, I really like Greg Davies too. I know I have missed a load of my list of I really sat down and thought about it.

He is fantastic on the Inbetweeners as Mr Gilbert.
