Starting to change my views on the show.

For quite some time I felt Opie is whats wrong with the show. But now I'm thinking it's jimmy. When he's just a 3rd mic guy throwing in funny lines he's fine, but unrestricted he's awful, and he's everything that guy that called today said he was. He's just a whiny shit talking pussy, and I don't think he really gives a shit about the show more then it just being a place to promote gigs and get pictures with famous people. Those are the only things he puts energy into..

Whatever opinion you have of Jimmy is fine, but I don't think it's fair to say he just uses the show to promote. He is very loyal to the boys and show. Look how mad he got at roland for putting cronut guy over the show.

Also Loyal? Jimmy would jump ship in a fucking heartbeat. Don't get that confused.

I disagree with you. And what does jump ship mean? If he has a chance to finally get that tv show he wants, is that disloyal to do that? Im sure the boys would have no problem with it. With lucky louie, he wasn't there all the time obviously, but he didn't jump ship. He's 3rd mic and probably paid way way less than the boys so i have no problem with that.

No because jimmy was confused that people are doing actual work in the building, and not just their to plug their up coming shows.

Do you really think he plugs his shows that much? It seems like a quick plug probably once every hour or so.

Opie is usually the one that brings it up to. Why shouldn't he plug his shows.

The same reason Jimmy drags the show down at times is the reason he's watched his friends rise to the top and his career stays stagnant. It's always sex, trannys, hookers, suicide by shotgun, Ozzy, and AIDS.

No Hollywood studio, director, or A-List celeb is going to want to attach themselves to that.

And he is a 50 year old midget

No, he's just been goin to the gym, goin to the gym and atin bettar

It's always sex, trannys, hookers, suicide by shotgun, Ozzy, and AIDS.

You forgot hats.

How could I forget the hats? Or the "characters" that have clearly taken over.

Anything Jim says that isn't funny annoys me.

I love Jimmy.

Sometimes the show just sucks. It can be be too much Jimmy, too much Ant or too much Opie or just a general lack of energy / material, but thats how it is with everything.

I enjoy the old "raspy background jimmy" very much, but I don't mind him now either. Sometimes he has weird views on things but you can't take his take him too seriously.

I don't think any of them is what's wrong with the show. I think they are all dickbags at times, but they are all also loveable shitheads. As much as I complain about Opie being as dumb as Vos, and nobody calling him on it, because he's as big of a baby as Roland, he still entertains me. Jimmy annoys me at times, Ant annoys me at times. I could write a chapter in a book about all of the things that the Opester does that annoy the shit out of me. That doesn't mean that I don't want him on the show, or that I think he's ruining it. If I'm overly annoyed by any of them, I tune out. It doesn't happen very often, but it does happen. But I always come back, because they entertain the fuck out of me on a daily basis, and I love them for that.

100% agree. The best shows in recent memory are the Friday shows with just O&A when Jim is on the road.

Simply put, I still think Opie is what's wrong with the show. However, he's not going anywhere. Changing jimmy out (or reducing him to part-time for insurance reasons) may offer a refreshing dynamic. I'm not opposed to this.

Pretty sure the idiot who started this thread is the same faggot who called the show today

My thoughts exactly

That's how I have him tagged in RES - "faggot who called the show on 4/3"

I think everyone on the show has their moments of being annoying. With Anthony, its his political/racial talks with lack of credible evidence, with Opie its general goofiness and the occasional derailment, and with Jimmy it is at times just flat out uneducated and irrational statements regarding the world.

intellectual jimmy is just about the worst thing humanity has to offer, it lacks logic, his opinions are based on childlike ideas and reality is nowhere to be found. I think it's easier to comprehend genocides.

PS: I love the guy

whoa whoa ZT.. Lets not let Opie off the hook just yet..

I Like Opie

You seem like a miserable faggot.

While I agree that his rants are pretty bad, to say he puts no work into the show isnt fair. The dude read a fucking Flavor Flav book to prepare for an interview with him on the show.

Jimmy use to be great, especially during debates. Recently he's turned into a whiny little fuck. He used to seem very smart on most subjects, weighing them up and taking on board everything he hears and even changing his views because he'd been educated. Now however, I couldn't agree with you more.

Except the plug thing, I don't think he plugs himself too much, once a show I'd say (I might be wrong), but he does make sure the guests get plugged - even during the spat with Ventura he made sure his plug got out there.

Think giving Jimmy THE BOOT would open the chair up to some new guest comedians, get some fresh blood in there... It would be fucking great.

I think it would re-charge our boys too...

Sorry Jim, Time to go.

It'd open too much mic time for Sam. I'll take Jimmy.

No.

That isn't true. Jimmy does about 40 fucking characters that as far as I'm aware, hee does nowhere else (besides his sad personal life, of course)

Ugh, go back to wackbag already.

I can't, I'm banned till the 6th. :)
