What do you think of Lewis Black?
Edited on Sun May-16-04 11:10 PM by playahata1
I just caught the last 5 minutes of his HBO special -- at my brother's urging. (This is his first experience watching Black.) I know Black from "The Daily Show"; however, while he is spot-on about the corrupt Mis-administration, I'm not too impressed with his style. He is a little too much of a ranter and a growler for my taste. Your $.02?

1. Screamingly funny.
That's his schtick, the ranting, angry guy. He is too fucking funny.

2. I think he's hysterical
I love his stand-up. He's the angry prophet for the new century, and that's just what we need right now IMO.

3. When Netscape@Radio worked on my machine...
I looked forward to Lewis Black Bits on the laugh Trax station.

6. I've only seen him on "The Daily Show," but...
...I think he's great on that! Can't say if I'd like to be exposed to his loud, ranting style for a full hour, though.
