That's $100 and 90 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
When he was liberal he still gave Clinton and Kennedy shit, like most comics do....if you bash one side you bash the other, because there's lots of funny shit you can say about either of them.
He never said one bad thing about Dubya or any republican the whole show.....and god knows there's tons of Quayle like jokes to be made about the current administration........he's just another asshole with an agenda now, what a waste of talent  |
Agreed. Old show on HBO, and all stuff prior was funny. You could tell last two years of the show it was going down hill. He just lacked the punch.
For me, it was when I saw him on Leno after his HBO special, and he was reusing same bad jokes, then later that week on show. I was like wtf dude, don't you have writers?
I have caught his show a few times. Format reminds me of old Politically Incorrect where you never get into an issue w/ any thought. Just a bunch of famous people sitting around giving a few sentences of sound bites. Not muhc more.
On top of that, most of his jokes suck now. He just hasn't had any umph for 2-4 years. Old shit is still hilarious, but he started going down hill during the decades HBO special. Then when he kept repeating, 'croak that toad', and when he because of Bush/Republican/War Mongering biased it was hard to take his shit seriously anymore.
