Jimmy needs to stop trying to compete with Louie when it comes to output.

You'd think he would have learned his lesson after two mediocre specials in a row. If the material is half-baked, slow the process down and let the material gestate, you're not Louie, you don't need to have a new one hour special every single year.

Maybe every other year is the right speed for you.

You had me at "Jimmy needs to stop"

ha I was about to make a post asking if the sidebar pic was a photoshop. ANOTHER special??? I'll bet it has a 15 minute bit on the clippers owner scandal. And i'm not even kidding.

I've been racking my brain thinking of what "nobody cares about that anymore" topical news story he would have material on, and you nailed it.

It's going to be stuff like that, stuff you completely forgot happend a week after it did. In fact as I wrote that comment I couldn't even remember what the guy's name was

it is shopped.They took out his fat gut and bitch tits.

He's wrong on that anyway. Say what you want about all the PC shit in the world, but the players on his team were gonna quit. If enough employees hate the boss, the boss should go. He was a stupid delusional fuck too. But nah it's easier to just take his side with the assumption all cases of SJW's going after someone are equal.

Just two? How about 7 or 8 or however many he's put out in his career. It doesn't matter if he puts them out a year apart, a decade apart, or a month apart. The problem with Norton's stand-up is not the amount of time he puts into his act. He needs to seriously re-evaluate his approach and find away to utilize his talent, because he certainly isn't doing so currently.

Well la-di-da, Mr. learned Reddit formatting.

Carlin was the inspiration for all these comics to put out a special once a year.

Fact. But not one of these motherfuckers can make a sack big enough for George's testicles. Including Louie.

Imagine if Carlin hadn't died and was still putting out specials. I'd love to see his take on SJWs. And his reaction to their take on him.

What's SJW?

Stupid Jewish Women

So ACV in other words.

The thing is, Carlin didn't really put out a special once a year. They were usually every 2-3 years apart.

Yes, but Louie is the one who brought that back.

Now they're all trying to compete with that time-table, even if it is to their detriment, and I think it has hurt Louie to some extent too.

If Norton spaced them out a little more, the drop in quality wouldn't be quite so noticeable.

DiPaolo put three years into Another Senseless Killing and its amazing.

Any excuse to show you lost weight eh Jim? I thought we'd all aggreed that being naked as a wacky goof is hacky, but what do I know.

IMO, Jim's a pretty bad standup comedian.

Maybe go listen to Bill Hicks, and all those other comedians you've "never heard before". Get some fucking influences besides the stupid voices in your head, telling you to go get another tranny hooker.

Not even Louie can pull it off. His latest special was dogshit, the one before that was mediocre.

I saw him in Atlanta back in 2013, I thought he was great. Of course in person anybody is funnier I'm sure. And that whole "Paying for the experience thing." When I saw the same act in the special, it didn't seem as good. I dunno.

Louie and Burr have become cheeseball comedy acts; the people that they were when they made their names are long gone.

He should have called it "Never mind the distracting twitches". One big over-rehearsed tranny monologue.

They seem like they're pretty much in the same league:

On reddit though the straighter the subject matter the fewer the subs.

Not just jimmy. Basically everyone has this problem. Burrs specials are getting weaker and weaker.

Not everyone is meant to do a special a year.

guarantee there's a large chunk about Cosby, then of course the obligatory tranny reference at some point
