Dane Cook
 
So, I saw Dane Cook is back on tour and performing a show in Boston on New Year's Eve. Do people really still think he's funny? Really??

I don't think anybody here does.

i do stand-up...every comic i've talked to about him thinks he sucks and is a hack.

he stole shit from louis CK and his opening act robert kelly is funnier than him. I feel like cook's target audience is girls ages 16-24.

I remember when everybody on the board used to think Dane Cook was funny. How times change.

I have no idea how funny he is, and am unlikely to find out any time soon.

i thought a couple of his bits were pretty good, but they got old fast when his special got put on demand and my roommates watched it every weekend.

He's an extreme chach-bag. I'm not gonna completely kid myself, I've laughed at a few of his segments; he's got a little material. But he's the biggest dildo. Horrible actor + steals material + obnoxious + dickless = (n)


someone needs to pull one of these on him.

He is pretty terrible but he has found a niche market in mediocrity.

Not that I've watched a lot of his routines, but I've never once laughed at any of his bits. Not even a chuckle.

I think maybe when he had to work to earn laughs he might have been decent, or at least had some okay jokes. But now that he's so huge, he doesn't have to do anything, so his jokes are terrible.

I caught a bit of his newest DOUCHE IN THE ROUND or whatever bs he was doing and it was mind-blowing how he would just mention basic every-day things and people would go nuts for hit. He had a whole bit about how people write directions...and there was no joke, it was literally him just describing how someone writes directions. But everybody went apeshit for it...pretty interesting.

I agree w/ NLOL.

There's no denying he's one of the biggest tools on the planet, but he's rich for being so. The only tool that's bigger than he is the collective mass of dickweeds/slutty teenagers that throw their money at him.

Toodles. Gotta watch my Steelers destroy the Titans.

Fuck off, Chewy.

Every comedian hates him because yeah he sucks, but there is also the twinge of envy. I cant say it is unwarranted because there are thousands of worthy comics who aren't paying their mortgage making jokes like he is.

In a way, I sometimes wonder if the joke just isnt on all of his fans. I mean, this guy basically got his start playing to drunk frat kids in college towns and blew up that way. He curtailed towards the mediocre market and hit it big and has this insane following now. Its ridiculous, but also pretty clever.

I read an article about him years ago where he talks about how his dad suggested that he do the college circuit. he said it was because people often continue throughout their lives to like the things they discovered when they were college-age.

I mean, look at Dave Matthews Band. People stilllll love that shit.

So, Dane Cook's dad is the clever one.

I don't really like the man, but I'll be damned I don't burst out laughing anytime I hear his bit about the lady getting killed at a race and he says "a tire...HIT HER IN THE FACE"

I don't know, makes me laugh. About the extent of my fanhood.

If you have to be at work at 8, it's always like, 7:54. Just enough time to do nothing. To just lay there and go, "I can't do anything! I can't even have an English muffin!"

It was peace. Peace is when you would shake the hands of the people around you. And you knew peace was coming because the priest would say it five times rapid fire.
