Have Comedians On Tv Lost A Lot Of Material Now Trump Is Going?

[dave50]

I mean they only seem to have three subjects that they seem to find amusing, Trump, Boris and brexit. What are they going to do now, these right on comedians that infest the BBC and Channel 4? Perhaps they should try and broaden their appeal outside their London centric narrow virtue signalling view point and start actually making the rest of the country laugh.

i did watch one of the travelogues, but still didn;t get the joke.

Robin Williams would have made mincemeat of Trump but sadly he passed away too soon. Biden doesn't seem like a man who has any personality to take the rise out of.

Peter Kay is hilarious, wish he'd come back into the public eye again. I could do with a really good laugh. Never really a fan of John Bishop until I saw that marvellous programme with the two whales. What a kind man.

I remember Thatcher sounding the death knell for a lot of comedians and impressionists like Mike Yarwood.

[emmie]

John Bishop is seemingly a nice guy, but he rarely makes me laugh.

[emmie]

Mike Yarwood wasn't that good an impressionist if you see some of the old footage,

[burlyshirley]

Doesn't sound like much does to be fair.

Peter Kay had planned a 'Dance for Life' tour to raise money for Cancer Research UK but that had to be postponed due to lockdown.
Hopefully he'll do it when we are back to normal.

Billy Connelly, Robin Williams were masters at the art.

[barry1010]

Mike Yarwood was awful but a lot of people loved him.

[barry1010]

Billy Connelly still is - he ain't dead yet, emmie

[emmie]

but like i said many of the good comedians are now no more, or the ones that are still going can't do good political comedy, Rory Bremner still around but i don't see much of him to be honest.

[emmie]

he is a shadow of his former self Barry.

They're all out of step except our Jock.

[emmie]

the cartoonists have had a field day with Trump, Boris, but can't see them finding anything in Biden's make up....

[retrocop]

Dick Emery, Arthur Hayne, Eric and Ernie, Bennie Hill always make me laugh out loud. Pretty much all of the stand ups today are loud mouthed and foul mouthed imo and don’t let me describe the men.

I think Biden's made a good start for the lampooners with that stupid little jog onto the podium. Whetever happened to statesmanship and dignity?

[emmie]

i still laugh out loud at Allo Allo, Dad's Army, comedy gold.

[emmie]

10cs, out the window.

The ones that disguised themselves to be funny that I could never watch, they were like having a wasp in your ear were
Frankie Howard ( shudder)
Charlie Drake ^^
And today's offering of Keith Lemon ( double shudder)

For brilliance, for me was Tony Hancock and Bob Monkhouse
