Great show, miss Frankie, BBC are a bunch of cunts that don't understand comedy.

BBC understand comedy, let's see there's Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, Red Dwarf, to name just several classic comedy shows known and admired around the world. Blackadder, Porridge, Absolutely Fabulous, Only Fools and Horses, Morecambe and Wise, One Foot in the Grave, The Two Ronnies, The Young Ones, Fry and Laurie, My Family, 'Allo 'Allo, Yes Minister, The Vicar of Dibley, Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, I could go on and on and on but I think I've established the trend... The BBC also spends a lot of money promoting new and established comedians performing at large venues like the Apollo, and also runs the BBC New Comedy Awards annual ceremony which is considered one of the highlights of the comedy calendar. Frankie is a gem and a fellow Scot so I'm biased in favour of him but let's not forget he left comedy behind of his own accord. Can't blame the BBC for that.
In fact if you're going to slag off the BBC the least you can do is come live over here for a year and pay your TV licence fee so a) you're contributing, and b) you actually have a leg to stand on if you're going to make ludicrous and offensive claims.


You're naming classic comedies that shaped the world...and do not apply in this discussion (The good ones, not the shit you listed). Just don't even bother making an argument next time if you're going to produce strawmen like this. Monty Python and Fawlty Towers are amazing...AND OLD! Really fucking old and were made at a time where the BBC wasn't run the way it's run now.

Frankie was constantly harassed and treated like shit on Mock the Week by it's Producers because they kept getting complaints from stupid people who think their opinion matters. Frankie was the funniest part of that fucking show, the BBC took him away, so YES they don't understand that saying offensive things is a comedians job. You don't have the right to not be offended.

I'm glad you're offended because you're fucking wrong. The BBC used to produce seriously funny shit...some of the most cherished shows ever. Now they produce crap, because it's an upside down pyramid of executives noting shows to death and killing the funny parts of others because some mother called in to complain.

You are whats wrong with humanity. You're a lowly wretch who defends morons who ruin things for the rest of us. Why don't you go work for NBC you evil monster.

the two ronnies own.

I've sent you an invite to the collective. Once you have accepted it you can post a vid in the Collective. Welcome to the Knights Who Say Ni!

In reply to your comment:
“how do i submit a video to your collective? its a classic Two Ronnies clip.”

how do i submit a video to your collective? its a classic Two Ronnies clip.

God, I loved the Two Ronnies.

If the top 15 of us submitted three videos each day, that would be 45 in the que daily. But there are a lot more of us than just 15. Summer may mean additional participants since some folks are not in school. The growth of membership and videos is going to mean more constraints.

Maybe the limit of 2 will need to be reintroduced. Maybe the time in the que will need to be reduced. Maybe a cap on the number of videos are in the que will encourage more aggressive voting up or down.

As for the tagging discussion, I would like to suggest an increase in the maximum for tags. There have been times when I wanted to have more than the limit because of what was in a video. This might help in tracking videos down and encouraging folks to better label what is submitted.

I am sucker for Monty Python sketches, but there are other comedy troops and individuals out there. I had completely forgotten about “The Two Ronnies” – although I don’t remember where or when I used to watch them eons ago.

Whatever y’all decide, don’t turn this into a drudgery yourselves. I’m reminded of restaurant in Algiers Point (across the river from the French Quarter) - it closed because it became too successful.

Anyway, I need to quit thinking so I can wind down this annoying artist mind of mind . . .
