So a certain funny guy was going to poke fun at a certain director but they put the kibosh on it. Grow some spines please. I would have tuned in to watch this skit but I’ll pass. —Paingirl

Yeah Bob Hope was totally gonna riff on Orson Welles!
it was going to be sacha dissin cameron…i would be happy to see mr. cohen naked
you tell em’ paingirl, we’re all in this together, ala red green.-
i loathe award shows. but watching ricky gervais @ some self-congratulatory thingie was gold…he was so funny but the crowd with their food poisoned unmoving visages was even funnier
nothing compared to the Comedy Central Roasts….. at least the first few…. those roasters rip each and every person in attendance a new one. The roasts of Bill Shatner, Pam Anderson and Flava Flav are the best.
saget was a good one too…
they should put more ‘show’ into the awards shows and less ‘awards’.
I’m pretty sure people don’t care if you came up with the best music in the movie no-one bothered to go see…. or the lighting was better than the rest of everyone for those 365 days. y’all get paid millions of dollars to pretend to be someone else for a couple months a year…. start earning your paycheque and entertain for fuck sakes
i liked bily crystal with his gotta sing gotta dance schtick. the only reason i saw the gervais thing on youtube was because the mainstream hollyweird press lambasted him
“food poisoned unmoving visages”
Bwah hah hah hah! Thanks for the lol.
seeing sacha baron cohen rub his naked ass over someone doesnt really constitute good television in my eyes. is borat still relevant? why would he be there neway?
