Stewart Lee Page 12

That's the best clip of him I've ever seen. Whistling nnocently

Stewart Lee is one of the most talented writer/comedians of all time, imho.

is there a more talented comedian living and working today?

Maybe, but I can't think who it might be.

Is it Sue Perkins?

Stephen K Amos?

Yo Putters, get yerself over to Larks ( where the real comedy lives).

Stewart Lee and Frankie Boyle are the 2 greatest stand-ups, right now.

And that's a fact.

Frankie Boyle three years ago maybe. He's too tired now.

I do love Stewart Lee, but sometimes find him hard work.

Still the best stant up around http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo648qYq4-E

Amongst many others, Stew's latest newsletter contained the following quotes at the bottom:

Quote: Stewart Lee's Newsletter" date="January 28 2011, 13:09 PM GMT

"a slightly embarrassing 40+ year old man ranting like a teenage student activist whilst labouring "jokes" and being, what seems, almost deliberately unfunny" Tony Cowards, comedy.co.uk

"He does look a bit weird nowadays. Physically, middle-age doesn't suit him the way it suits some people." Chipolata, comedy.co.uk

"His approach to gag telling seems to be that because he is so much more insightful than his audience that is just going to bloody well keep going until even the most retarded of them has got the joke. Sorry I did not see what was so intelligent about his act. Sneering about other people being stupid is not in itself clever. The basic problem is that there are not enough gags. He gets an idea, and instead of building on it and developing it into a proper routine, he just hammers home the same point until any possible humour has been drained out of it" Timbo, comedy.co.uk

"I think the problem is he's not actually funny. Lying on the floor ranting about Del Boy just made him look mentally ill frankly. He comes across as arrogant and condescending. A final point - Lee should get a suit that actually fits." Morris Minor, comedy.co.uk

To be fair, these opinions were much more considered than the average ones...

Wha...? I like him!

(I just think he looks a bit odd middle-aged! And you, Miss Judgemental, should not be throwing your stones in this particular glass house.)
