Two years ago I went to see Marcus Brigstocke live. He was on stage for over two hours and was... well, just funny. There are so many comedians about that some of them are bound to get on your tits. I like Boeing Guy's description of Ricky Gervais as one of the most inept people on the planet and I don't think anyone on these threads has said they find him funny. Others I can't stand are Russell Brand, Alan Carr, Jimmy Carr, Michael Mcintyre (if only for that irritating voice). Paul Merton is another turnoff.

I do like Dara O'Briain, Andy Parsons, Russell Howard, from which you will gather I am a Mock the Week fan, and yes, I also liked Frankie Boyle on that show.

It's a matter of personal taste though I do agree that certain subjects are best avoided.
