its annoying, its insignificant, it unproductive, its BORING.edit: and its offensive most of the time too. comedians just take the tragedies of people and make laugh of them.

basically, im doing this topic because im sick of the CH ads i see everywhere on the net. That 70s show, friends, ...etc, they are all boring, unoriginal, and boring.the only worthy comedy show i have ever seen was Seinfiled, it was epic indeed.

Just because you don't find it funny, does not mean others don't.

Friends is a comedy? I'm sorry to call you out on this, but have you seen much comedy or comedians? Check out Jeff Dunham on YouTube. You'll change your mind. Or George Carlin.

Lots of those shows make people laugh or not. Something one person thinks is funny, another person might not think so. I don't really laugh at that many shows these days, but they are still entertaining. I don't know, don't think it should be banned... it's doing what it's supposed to do with some people, is making people laugh/feel entertained. Offensive jokes/material could be banned... but that can be questioned whether it is offensive or not to some.

What's wrong with you? Don't blame comedy because you are incapable of mirth.

Well, heck, just on the USA Network, there's Burn Notice, Royal Pains and In Plain Sight. All three of those are great shows. I know you meant the US, though. Anyway, I love Castle and NCIS, too. It depends a lot on what you like. Good comedies that I like: How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Modern Family (great, great!) and The Middle.

I find Jeff Dunham to be extremely unfunny. Puppets aren't funny. If you want real standup comedians try Jim Gaffigan, Daniel Tosh, Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, George Carlin, or some of Bill Cosby's older stuff.

Stop watching generic sitcoms like that 70s show and Friends. There's plenty of great comedy out there, even today.

yea Bernie was a great man. Sienfiled, Bernie, these are true comedians. they dont go on TV or on stage and make a fool of themselves to make others laugh, they just do normal stuff and yet you find them to be extremely funny.

Well, his are. And a lot of people find his comdey to be comedic, not just me. Two HBO (I think) specials, a Christmas special and his series that just started Thursday night. Personally, I find him hilarious.

I never found seinfeld funny. That 70s show is my favourite show, it's classic. adults like it cause they go "Hey that was how it was in the 70s" and kids are like "yeah I relate to that". I've watched the series hundreds of times over, and it's still funny. It bothers me when people cut down a whole 'group' of something (in this case comedy). If you were talking about a race here, you'd get permabanned.

You're missing out on a lot of good shows like the Wire, 30, Dexter (especially Dexter), Venture Bros, BurnNotice, Psyche. Also if you think most anime/manga is boring you need to stop watching the newer mainstream stuff.

anything before 2006 is a no no for me in terms of anime. actually i put it wrong, 97% of today's entertainment, including comedy is not wroth it at all. i assume you are talking about the remaining 3%. to say that comedy should be banned is not realistic, but i meant these 97%.

Really? you need to check out Monster, Cowboy Bebop, Gundam 0083, Ghost in the Shell: SAC. Also for whole 97% TV remark I wouldn't know enugh to agree. I only watch about four or five shows on the tube.

Yes Rahxephon is amazing one of my favorites. As for the British stuff I haven't checked anything out besides the originalOffice (which I found boring) but I do enjoy the stuff Simon Pegg has worked he's pretty funny.

A lot of things are annoying, insignificant, and unproductive. Sometimes they later become important. If you know of something funny feel free to share.
