jon dore show

Published by superfunkomatic at Feb 19, 08 | 5:27 pm under humour

one of the funniest programs i’ve watched in recent memory. i’d actually tried to ‘tape’ the sarah silverman show on the comedy network, but instead i got several episodes of the jon dore show.

it’s brainy, but absolutely filthy and bizarre humour. he basically has some sort of personal dilemma or breakdown each episode which forces him to seek the advice of a psychologist, friends or professionals in the community. he asks questions, that well, shouldn’t be asked, especially to a stranger.

he even throws in a few groaner lines in each episode which leads to a cutaway with a ‘writers’ meeting’. the last episode was the line ‘throw me a bone’ then, of course, he actually has someone off screen throw him a bone. the cutaway shows a bunch of dogs in glasses as his comedy writers - one with a poop in front of him - “dreyfus, this is just shit…” another wirey rat-dog begins growling at him when he mentions the comedy writing isn’t up to snuff.

well worth a watch if you get the comedy network - time well wasted…
