Reply #2: It got even worse tonight [View All]

They kicked off the most talented and edgy comic (in my opinion) in favor of a total hack. Since it sounds like you haven't seen it, I won't spoil it for you, unless you ask me to.

Another thing that really bugs me about it this year is the lack of comics that are over 40 (or admit to it). I also found fact the Will Durst didn't even make it to the Vegas finals is absolutely ridiculous.

I worked in the comedy club biz during the boom in the eighties/early nineties, so I still have quite a few friends in the business. The stand up scene is so decimated that comics are desperate to get the work that comes from being scene on this show. I know someone who was on last season and now he has more bookings than he can handle, and he didn't even win.
