COMEDY

I’m a big fan of Comedy Central. The best show, by far, is South Park. I know that some people don’t like it, but it’s simply the best. But this is not what I wanted to talk about. I wanted to talk about comedians there.
I like stand-up, but not all of it. And in that category I have to say that nobody made me laugh like D.L. Hugley in “Shocked and Appalled”. That’s probably the best stand-up I’ve seen so far. His jokes and critics at the same time make the whole show a total must-see. There isn’t a single part about it that isn’t worth it.
The other comedian that I like a lot is Carlos Mencia. This guy makes very, very good points. There isn’t a single ethnic group that isn’t teased. That’s the best part about it. The other good thing about the guy is that he always tries to get people to study, to improve their education. The only thing I don’t like about him is his big support to Bush, the invasion to Iraq, etc. But since that’s not the main subject of his show, then it’s all good.
The other show I started to watch not long ago is Reno 911! That show is just amazing, and it’s becoming a favorite very fast.
I like Adam Carolla too. I have to say that I only watched the show a couple of times, but his questions about ridiculous stuff are just hilarious.
That’s it for Comedy Central. There is very good comedy going on in other channels. Another favorite is Penn & Teller: Bullshit! (I don't know if I should put this one under comedy, but it makes me laugh) Now, if you want to hear some people criticizing today’s society and what’s “politically correct”, this is the way to go. I absolutely recommend this to everybody.
Ok, that’s it for comedy (for now). Let’s see what you guys have to say or recommend.
