Not really. I think he's a fine stand-up comedian, minus the puppets, and will watch the beginning of his acts when the puppers haven't been used. The only puppet I can even stand to watch is the old guy, the others just kind of annoy me. And I really don't like when Dunham makes each character's "trademark noise" or something. I dunno, I don't really like him.
Not really. He's a good ventriloquist, but I don't him funny or his shows amusing. MrPraline
i think the same. Good at the ventiloquist thing but the actual stuf really is not funny. He really is just stereotyping the race/ethnicity of the puppets which really is not funny to me.
lol, I saw "Dunham" and for a second i thought you were talking about Olivia Dunham :P I had a long hate speech prepared :xII_Seraphim_II
You've been extensively editing and improving a massive formal essay on the character ever since you first saw Fringe in the hopes of some day being able to post it on GameSpot in a discussion, haven't you :P

yup lol. I still got a grudge against the people who told me the show was good :x
I think he's good for a few shows. Too many of his puppets are hit-or-miss, and I agree with the poster who said that his use of the puppets' trademark noise as a time-filler or a free way to get a cheer from the audience is pretty annoying. I don't think he should get his own TV show, though. It'll get painful quickly.
He's hilarious the first few times you see him. After that, his formula gets repetitive. He's a lot better than many of the comedians out there though.
He is so funny! Great comedy. The people who don't like him, dislike like him because sometimes he can very crude and offensive, but the crude and offensive stuff is great.
I love Dunham. I saw Achmed, then watch 2 of his shows on Comedy Central and they were pretty good. Then I went to see him when he was in Vegas, and he's about 20x better live, I kid you not. Guitar Guy does the opening act that they don't show on CC, which had me laughing pretty hard. His opening was pretty good, Walter was gold, Achmed was good but not as good as usual, and Peanut just about killed me, I didn't realize his act was as profane as it was live but I couldn't stop laughing. Then he brought out Bubba Jay, where he claimed he "forgot" most of it since this was the first time he used Bubba Jay in a long time (We were talking to another guy at the Excaliber while we were waiting for the Valet to get our car, and said he did the same thing when he went to see him last month), so everytime he started to say the lines half the audience would echo the lines perfectly. Absolutely love Dunham.
