Scott Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 What do you guy's think of Frankie Boyle? Personally i think the guy is hilarious and his wit is lightning quick. My Wife enjoys watching him on Mock the Week but she can't watch him doing stand up as he is just that bit too close to the bone. He always astounds me on Mock the Week with how quickly he can come up with things during the standup rounds, he is almost always the first person to stand up to the mic. On that show i think he is amazing, i love his standup comedy but i CAN see how a lot of people would feel offended. What do you think?

SUPRALOOPY Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Nahhhhhhhhh I piss myself every time he talks. Yes he takes it to far but thats what I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 For the "Who?" voters among you. This is as clean as i could get, otherwise it would be NWS. I want to keep it public if possible lol. You can see, by the other comedian's reactions, just how ruthless his humour is.... and this is light for him. i7CPqZO_IDU wCCrDiWyPOY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Very funny. The Princess Di gang-bang in a minefield gag was another classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiceRocket Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Very funny but he's not in my top 3 comedians. He is the star of Mock The Week though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 He's ok - bit repetitive now. His DVD is his Mock The Week bits rolled into one, plus some more padding out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martini Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 He's very funny. Awesome comedian, would love to see him live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 He's ok - bit repetitive now. His DVD is his Mock The Week bits rolled into one, plus some more padding out. I have noticed that. Its a shame he doesn't trust his lightening wit more often. On mock the week he is ace coz he is on the spot and genuinely does have a unique sense of humour, on the show his "rehersed" stuff stands out like a sore thumb though... as it did in his standup live DVD.

duncz Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 He's pretty good on Mock the Week but I heard his standup was dire. Occasional "shock" jokes are hilarious but when he gets stuck in a rut and just does it constantly it's really not that funny. Dara Ó Briain on the other hand - now that is quick wit. Guy is a genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy is a genius. The standup DVD is hilarious bud, the only time its not THAT funny is if you have heard his jokes before. He isn't quite as bad at the recycling as peter kay yet though lol. The only time i dodn't laugh during watching is when the joke cuts so close to the bone i would get shouted at by the wife for laughing. Anything to do with kids and disabilities is a no-no as far as she is concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncz Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 How offensive his jokes are just doesn't bother me in the slightest, I love that kinda humour - it just gets a bit repetitive after a while. I'll probably get his DVDs though and have a watch; when he's funny he's ****ing hilarious :] All of the "regulars" on Mock the Week are quality like. The banter between them is immense. The old guy, not sure what his name is, he's exceptionally quick too.. and so odd! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 He's probably my favorite comedian on the TV at the moment. Absolute legend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathmonkey Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 He absolutely cracks me up! On the DVD, when he talks to that couple near the front, where the woman looked older than her fella (if it was her fella!!) ? Something about having him for breakfast? Can't remember what it was, but it just cracked me up, the expressions and that, the look he got was classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
