Comic Car wash...GREAT idea...

Ummm...I'm confused about these competitions. Why in the world would they do a car wash? I think this show needs some new producers or something. That was quite possibly the stupidest thing I've ever seen. This show is really going down hill...yet I'm still watching it. I think it's because I really do like the stand up comedy of the few people who are really funny. You know a show is really on it's last legs when they invite in Carrot Top.... Part of me felt the prop comedy competition was a good idea, because it exposed Papa CJ as an imbecile, and Paul Foot as a man with serious mental illness. I did not really laugh during the entire competition, but props are not really my thing. Jeff Dye was very creative...what a great idea to recreate a bunch of movies! He organized it in a way that made his props easy to follow...GENIUS. Louis was also pretty good, and some of them were not terrible, but not memorable. It's a good thing Jeff won this competition...it gives me more faith in this show. I am still creeped out by the cemetery kick off, but I'm starting to think it is a fake cemetery (due to the headstones for the comics kicked off last week). Now, any of you who watched this show in the past, please correct me if I am wrong...but didn't the comedians have to say "I know I'm funnier than so-and-so"...then, whoever got the most votes had to pick someone WHO VOTED FOR THEM to compete against...RIGHT? This year they are able to pick anyone they want to compete against, and I don't like that! I'm so glad Paul Foot and Papa CJ had to compete because they both SUCK! I'm not a huge Iliza fan, but I like her way more than Papa CJ (who always says the exact same jokes over and over and over again) and Paul Foot (whose jokes are super sexual and all over the place). Iliza's set was by far the best, so it's a good thing she won. I think it is hilarious that they showed Papa CJ earlier in the episode talking about how Iliza hasn't realized that she is competing with the "big boys"... whatever! I'm glad he got put in his place.

Carrot was looking a little scary

In the stand off I love that the sex jokes bombed, I hope the trend continues, maybe it was just bad delivery, I don't always watch and not sure of the trend...

I really hope Adam Hunter wins. He is by far the funniest comic on the show.

I am not following this, but I thought it funny to add that my brother saw CArrot Top in Vegas- they were in an elevator to go to the Ultimate Fighting match, and my brother said he was RIPPED, and looked much tougher than you would guess. Who would have thunk it?

I saw a comedian (the TV Guy- you can see him on youtube) in Vegas that used props- and he was so funny- I kind of think that show works better live. Actually, I think most comedy is better live, which is why I don't usually watch it on TV.
