Did you have a problem with the AID's joke?
I LOVED!!! the AIDS joke, i meant to say I thought it got boring untill now, especially since they killed chef.

Personally i think the current and last few series of South Park is the program in it's prime.

I personally thought that South Park was in its prime during the young days when they made subtle references to society and politics. Or maybe thats because I first started watching South Park.

I can find many funny things, at the moment I am watching an interview with Steve Martin and am laughing my head off.

I think that this season of South Park has been going back and forth between overly-preachy and clever, but not that funny. Maybe I'm just disappointed because last season was so great. The American version of The Office is my favorite comedy on TV. There's always at least one laugh out loud moment in each show, which is pretty rare with other shows for me.

I'm funny. I'm in ComedySportz at my high school. Where I'm, apparently, a dolphin, plus a puching bag.

I thought I was the only one who watched The IT Crowd. Joy!

Anyway, I think that with the ease we have of doing something like putting a video on Youtube, which can be just a matter of doing something stupid in your backyard and putting some titles in windows movie maker all within a quarter of an hour, people aren't really trying anymore.

It's pretty much that sort of malarkey, and people making the mistake of stupid=funny, which it doesn't.

If you want current funny TV shows I recommend Daily Show/Colbert Report.

Or you could read Doglas Adams or Terry Pratchett. Terry Pratchett alone has got have about 40 really funny books.

Oh yes, I loved the Hitchhikers books. I read it during high school, and people seem to think that it has had a negative effect on my sense of humour. Then again, I very rarely resort to jokes that revolve around dicks, tits or 'your mum'. Then again, it's difficult to explain dry wit and subtlety to people that need large neon signs to pop up whenever a punchline is delivered, i.e. a large portion of my classmates.
