Jeff Dunham: Is he funny?

[Doctor What]

Jeff himself, not funny. His act, however, has it's moments.

 

[oktalist]

I've never heard of him.

 

[mezmerizer02]

Are there supposed to be poll options? this looks like an angry rant.

 

[Endocrom]

I like him, yeah the show was another sad attempt at a network cashing in but turned out to bleed a comedian of his creative freedom (I forgot where I was going with that).

Anyway, yes, I find him funny. Not Eddie Izzard funny, but still very funny.

 

[Danman1]

He is a racist, manipulative, inflammatory unfunny bastard cashing in on the lowest common denominator and bringing down the collective I.Q. and spirituality of all of America, IMO.

Ha Ha, I think you just described 99% of all comedians! And not just in America!

hmm, touche sir. However, Bill Hicks... That is my answer to that.

 

[xXAsherahXx]

He's okay. I have seen some of his specials, but I don't laugh very often. What poll options by the way?

 

[Nukey]

Funny? Yes. As funny as people make him out to be? No.

While he is good, he's far from great, and he gets quoted far too often.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

His Walter act was okay, the rest just kinda fell flat on their faces and broke its nose.

He has some funny moments, but usually just comes off as offensive and really really stupid.

 

[ANImaniac89]

Is he Funny?
short answer. No

Long Answer. Fuck no I haven't been amused by puppets that weren't on Avenue Q since I stopped watching Sesame street back in 94 (and Crank Yankers was pure retardation and anyone who disagrees is provably wrong)

I can think of like 300 funnier stand up comedians

 

[Mumonk]

I HATE VENTRILOQUISTS!!! OMG!!! Sorry, I just can't stand it, ur supposed to be looking at the puppet and the guy just stands there, and its stupid and omg, i have to rip out my hair >_< asufgbaufgqf23794tgqiur

Its just very awkward watching a ventriloquist, dunno why, it makes me want to break things >_<

EDIT : Maybe if he did a puppet show like crank yankers or the insult comic dog, i would let it pass.

 

[RamirezDoEverything]

his first show was funn,y then every show after that was an hour long half-copy of the other ones.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

I enjoyed it up until he got popular and everyone started seeing him and quoting his stuff like crazy. Now I could care less about him...

 

[DarkRyter]

He's only funny the first time.

 

[Dexiro]

He's fucking awful, and i can't stress that enough. Everyone that i know seemed to have this big Jeff Dunham phase and i just didn't get it to the point of RAGING!!! >:I ARGH

"I keel you!" OH LOL WHAT A FUNNY JOKE. If i hear that one more time i'll stab someone.

/rage

It's not just that though, i was forced to watch through an entire DVD of his with friends. I can't imagine a more painful 2 hours, not one joke was funny.

 

[SoranMBane]

I probably found him mildly entertaining the first time I saw his act, but having to listen to his fucktard fans constantly quote his most idiotic jokes has killed my ability to enjoy his stuff on any level.

 

[silversnake4133]

No, not really. He seems very jaded to me. Now, I know most of what people refer to as comedy nowadays is nothing but making fun of other people, however, most of the decent comedians do it tastefully. Jeff Dunham just makes fun of people and nationalities for cheap laughs, and rather crudely at times. Plus he does the same routine over and over again. -_-; One of the only reasons I really watched him was because the "Guitar guy"(Brian Hayner Sr.) was the father of Avenged Sevenfold's lead guitarist Synyster Gates.

 

[Mimssy]

I find his stereotyping for profit pretty disgusting. I wasn't enraged, but I was offended on principle.

 

[wolf92]

I think he's kind of funny

 

[Gilhelmi]

I think that Jeff Dun Haaammmmm (yes, a peanut joke) is quite funny. I know it is a minority opinion, but most of my opinions on this site is minority so I do not care. Please no flamy, I forgot to bring my flame-retardant underwear today.
