I've never liked Gervais, I didn't even rate him in the office, I thought the skinny kid was funnier.

Tbf I was a bit harsh. I don't really mind some of his shows I just don't enjoy his stand up.

Jimmy Carr is even worse
What is with the woke generation comedians that they have no humour and are unable to tell a joke yet they appear on every programme that is designed to be funny and entertaining

Romesh Rangamuffin is another one, ticks every box apart from the one that says entertaining

What do you define as the 'woke generation'?

Jimmy Carr has being doing stand up for 20 odd years and some of his material is pretty dark. Jokes about rape aren't really woke lol.

I've never liked the guy. Was he at Wembley once doing some charity thing, for me it just showed him at his worst, absolutley awful.

Just a general term for what so called entertainment has become over the last 10 - 20 yrs, there are just a few that irritate me more than most

Romesh even more than the others

Can't stand Gervais or Carr tbh

I put gervais in the same bracket as that other fat unfunny **** james corden.

Do you know what woke means?

Jimmy Carr definitely isn’t woke, he’s a smarmy ****

Yeas I do know what woke is but it was just a generalisation of the ways things have gone

Romish and Rob are woke and talentless

Jimmy Carr is a **** and talentless

I didn't mean that Carr was actually woke just lumped them all in together

Im sorry we're chatting about unfunny comedians and no **** has mentioned Jack Whitehall?

Every single time that absolute bell even looks at the camera I want to smash his obviously homosexual face in.

I have never, ever found anything he says even remotely smirk worthy and I'm quite easy to make laugh.

Peter Kay is up there as the least funny. But thinking about it I can’t really name any stand up that makes me laugh.

I like quite a few of them on panel shows/their own shows but stand up format itself just doesn’t do anything for me
