Yeah Kim had a lot of cringe worthy sets. Like a couple times when she tried to do one-liners and as Redban said they sounded like she was reading Laffy Taffy wrappers or something. The one funny thing I remember was when she said her mom came to visit and wanted to follow behind a hollywood tour bus to save money.
Yeah he was always likeable but it seemed like he mixed in a lot of jokes that weren't real or sounded a little like "street jokes". Like one's where he was robbing someone at gunpoint.
They were kinda floundering at the time re: regulars. They just got rid of Vanessa and Ali, and they were trying to get Wee Man to commit. Then Malcolm was pulled and Wee Man never appeared again. Not long after that (after Malcolm left/got mugged??) William showed up and the rest is history.
Forgot about her. Something about her voice or accent too. She sounds like she's transitioning into a 14 year old boy you'd meet at a skateboard park or something. But if you're talking about her looks, there's plenty of women better looking women out there but if you're comparing her to other female comics then yeah I get it-she's pretty hot.
I was not a Wee man fan. He seemed like he was a story teller, which really doesn't work for that show.
He started just to have fun. Tony pushed him further than he wanted to go.
That’s my point. I didn’t think she was THAT hot. I was commenting on her attitude coming from a place where she thought she was better looking than she was.
Remember Missy Martinez? I think they were considering making her a regular at one point. (at least I know Redban was lol)
I thought she was OK. And actually somewhat attractive. But when Milly Marx started showing up, Tony did his standard rewriting of history saying there was never any adult stars who ever had any humor on stage. I thought that was kinda unfair to completely remove Missy from the history of the show.
What era?
It was pretty early on. Probably had most of his sets in the first 100 episodes. I kind of remember reading in the Youtube comments that he might have died too. I'll post the episode number if I run across it sometime. A lot of open mic ers are bad but this guy was so committed to his bad bits that it made it funny, if that makes sense.
Yeah he does seem to rewrite things sometimes. Like sometimes he makes it sound like Kim was on the very first episode when really she showed up around episode 8 or something. I also think that while most of the bucket pulls are random, it seems like in the early episodes he might have guaranteed a spot for a comedian who opened for one of the guests. Like it seems like an awful lot of the time a guy who got pulled out of the bucket happens to know or has opened for the guest. (granted it could just be that that guest is in town and he tells his opener to sign up for the show and back then there weren't as many names in the bucket so maybe it was coincidental)
I am wholly convinced that there are strategic rigged bucket pulls. But in the early days, there were only maybe 20 names in the bucket anyway, so it was likely to get up if you were there. I actually liked it when there were fewer names in the bucket. There were interesting arcs with recurring characters.
Yeah 30 years from now he'll do a tell-all memoir and give away all the secrets
No he won’t. He never tells the truth about anything that involves him.
