The Jeff Dunham Show

[jeremyfromva]

Will it be any good?

I love his stand up and am going to Baltimore in two weeks to see him, but I don't know if this will work as a television show.

[popdisaster00]

i won't be watching it...

[And Hours Pass]

i won't be watching it...
Mark it zero smokey. I won't be watching it either. In fact, I'll probably change the channel if it's accidentally on.

This guys the new Carlos Mencia.
Why dosn't comedy central give good stand ups shows anymore?

I don't agree. I think Tosh despite his show being pretty bad is very funny, Demetri Martin's show isn't bad and is a great comedian and Michael Ian Black and Showalter are both good comedians and i think their show is probably one of the better shows on Comedy central.
However Dunham is completely overrated.

[jco3]

sweet lord, why?!!!?

[love_american_style]

never liked this guy.

[BottleRocket]

fuck this guy. fuck him up his stupid ass.

I totally forgot about those

[berskyjr]

Can't stand him. I just can't get used to the whole vantriliquist *terrible spelling* comedy. It actually disgust's me lol

Black and Showalter, and Tosh are all mediocre at best but still get a couple laughs.
I'll stick with my It's always Sunny gang, for now.

[Matt I Guess]

This looks like it might be the worst idea ever.

[Baby for Pree]

I don't find this guy funny at all.

[Machu505]

He's so incredibly unfunny.

[Matt I Guess]

"Oh, what's that Walter? A witty observation about your wife?! BAHAHHAHAHHAAH WALTER YOU ORIGINAL MAN"

I don't like Jeff Dunham.

[jared091]

I totally forgot about those

well then all is forgiven, even though we weren't fighting. I'm gonna stop talking now.

Tosh.0 is great. what the fuck are you talking about?

As for Jeff Dunham, he's not getting any funnier and ventriliquism won't make a good show.

[ImTheSheriff]

his "comedy" is terrible and the only people i know that like him are old. most of his puppets are just racial stereotypes and none of them are funny.

[Matt I Guess]

You've basically hit the nail on the head here. My parents are direct evidence to your findings.

[needles & pins]

I saw him one or two years ago and you could tell he was hammered when he first walked on stage, and sobered up as the show went on. Apparently getting drunk before a show is his "thing."

I probably won't watch the show, but I know tons of people who think he's hysterical, so I can see it doing well.

Well I've never been a big fan of shows with people standing in front of a green screen (i.e. the Soup) and I don't find most of the videos particularly funny, I mean tosh said it himself that the best viral videos have denied the rights to be on the show. Also I don't like any of the segments (web redemption, breakdown). So that's what I am talking about.

[williek311]

I was hoping this show would be cancelled by now.

i agree with you 100%. that show is not funny and he really isn't funny anymore either. he's just really cocky now, and it's annoying.

[eraserhead]

Fucking terrible.

[mht]

just think, they canceled Reno 911 for crap like this....

[thursday727]

Web Soup is so much better

[friskycurtain]

I'm sorta looking forward to it:mellow:

[Bob Payne]

this thread needs to die in a fire

[ted is lying]

I agree with all of the negative post for this, he aint funny.

[Tim Lincecum]

oh my god what the hell is it with comedy central? this guy is "ALMOST" as bad as carlos mencias... totally different ways, but still omg he is soooo brutally unfunny that it hurts my to watch kind of like the aforementioned mencias

[Richard Maxim]

This guy is so damn unfunny, I feel pity for anyone who actually laughs at this, it's so bad.

[Yellowcard2006]

Being really cocky is part of his act...you really should watch more of his comedy.

[bluecrunchy]

Why doesn't Comedy Central understand that ventriloquism isn't funny?

[JuneJuly]

His stand-up is SHIT.

His dolls are racist, in poor taste, and not funny.

He's a bad comedian.

Nick Swardson.

you should really watch some of his older stuff where he wasn't as cocky and was funnier.

[ImTheSheriff]

Nick Swardson.

Who fucking farted?

Monkey high-five.

[ImTheSheriff]

Monkey high-five.

can you read my watch? i'm too drunk.

I've seen all of his material. It's the same style.

can you read my watch? i'm too drunk.
IS THAT YOUR DICK?

[jco3]

Nick Swardson.

THIS!

He needs a show, badly.

[jco3]

Monkey high-five.

God dammit, the monkey high-five had me bawling.

so very funny.

[foryoublue]

I'm a ninja. That's my job.

[MyNameIsRoss]

HBO is where it's at.

This guy isn't funny at all, I can't even wrap my head around how people enjoy his "comedy".

[owiseone35]

This guy is not funny. He makes obvious observations. Take away the dummy and all you have is a racist white guy cracking jokes. That's his material.

[S9Dallasoz]

The preview for tonight's episode...DJ Dunham & MC peanut...looks even more terrible than usual.

[eraserhead]

Probably the least funny comic out there right now, and that's saying a lot.

[WakingTheMisery]

Holy fuck.

I first reported on Monday that I was hearing whispers that Comedy Central might not be renewing The Jeff Dunham Show, the ventriloquist’s clunky sitcom that had Dunham and his puppets heckling “real people” in the “real world.” And now I’m hearing that, despite what Comedy Central told me, Dunham’s writing staff found out a week ago that the show wasn’t getting picked up after its season finale aired Dec. 10.

It could very well turn out that Dunham himself would rather go about his rather lucrative business with the fans in person than spend time on a second TV season dealing with critics who don’t seem to like him very much at all… After all, he grossed $38 million just in ticket sales last year, plus millions more in merchandise sales.
