I tend to not watch comedies on TV, because they usually suck. I have grown bored with the "toilet humor" that 99% of all comedians turn to to get a laugh. For instance, I watched Bo Burnhams videos on youtube. They were pretty good. Then I saw his stand-up on Comedy Central. It was crap.
Why can't people actually take the time to think up good jokes? I mean Gabriel Iglesias is hilarious, and he does so with out being crass or random humor. I guess it's because I grew up watching Looney Tunes and Dick Van Dyke, but I find those shows a million times more entertaining than any of the new comedies.
Also Jeff Dunham was funny. His show, which has probably been cancelled by now, is terrible. I couldn't even watch 5 minutes of it, so I switched to something that didn't suck. Like NCIS.
I rarely watch late night/morning Adult Swim, mainly because it sucks ( Tim and Eric, etc) but I did like Frisky Dingo and The Mighty Boosh, or at least the one episode I saw. Squidbillies is mediocre, I watched it a lot over the summer (it took the midnight spot, so I would watch it then watch Robot Chicken at 12:15). 90% (being generous here) of all childrens shows (disney channel, cartoon network, Nicktoons) are completely retarded. I do not understand how anyone finds them funny, with one exception: occasionally, shows like the suite life of zack and cody will make jokes that go way over the heads of their intended audience. On the one episode I saw, my younger sister didn't get it, but I laughed heartily. And then I left the room.
Nicktoons has/had one good show, and that was Avatar: the Last Airbender. I missed most of the first season, but when Istarted watching it, it turned out to be really good.
The Disney Channel has no good shows. At all. There is nothing that can redeem it from the garbage it is.
Cartoon Network, in the 90's, was the best network on television, mainly because of Looney Tunes and the like. Now, they don't even show it on Boomerang (which is still awesome), and have replaced all the good shows that once were with the same crap that the Disney Channel puts out. At least Nicktoons actually has cartoons as the great majority of its shows. Cartoon network was like "f**k that s**t, let make the cartoon network have lots of live-action shows!"
It seems that after Chuck Jones' death, Cartoon Network slowly took away the Looney Tunes.
And even if Cartoon Network has gone back to cartoons, I still hate them.
And Sarah Silverman is crap. She is unfunny and nearly all of her jokes are racist or stupid in some way. I don't understand how she still has a show. At least comedy central had the brains to cancel the Flaming Sword of Fire show. Good Lord that was probably the worst show I have ever seen.
