Better hope nobody says "retard" or Bonnie will storm off stage dragging Rich with her.

I think part of her being upset about it was Pat Dixon, a nobody in the comedy world, was the one saying it. If Bobby or Colin made some quick witted "retard" joke, I guarentee you Bonnie would laugh and play along with it. Especially if she was on Comedy Central.

In the end she's a hole

and the front

She's three holes. Technically six if you're really weird about it.

Where did u get the number 6?

It's right between five and seven

Fucking hens

You really think that at his point in his career/marriage you think hes gonna let her get in the way of his 5 minutes of non fame?

Yes.

Leaving a trail of drool like a snail on the floor

That was such a great segment:) love how vos came back to plug his shows

It wouldn't be the same without Greg or Patrice, who were also the most talented members of that whole crew.

What? You don't think Kurt and Sherrod could fill those shoes?

I understand that was sarcastic but it still made me sick

I don't think sherrod could spell shoes.

But the question is; could he sell shoes?

I bet he can shine them something fierce, aww lawdy

Maybe if he was like this guy. You just reminded me of this sketch I have no idea who that person is.

I think Kurt is hilarious and a great comic, but it's just not worth including him if it risks having Sherrod tag-along.

All he'd do was bitch about a twitter feud he's having with some guy with 30 followers that nobody but he cares about. I've never seen someone so obsessed with social media, the man is deranged.

His tongue could.

Maybe not as great but id still love to see it. Soder, big jay, Davidson, and Jeselnik could fit in. Norton, Dipaolo, Bobby and vos are ways great woth colin. I could see Burr and CK making appearances.

Exactly stop trying to recreate the past. The things that made show funny will never happen again. Greg going at it with Dennis Leary, Patrice and Pat Cooper together, Vos and Patrice trashing Dat Phan. Those moments are what made the show great. Trying to recreate something that was a moment in time never works.

It'll never work, especially if Jimmy is involved. He's the ratings cancer keeid.

I'd hate to burst everyone's bubble but I doubt this will lead to anything. Where would he do it? Comedy Central hated the show 10 years ago and it's only gotten worse

Podcast mabye? Or self produced video series

With the return of actual comedy "shows" like Roast Battle and This is Not Happening to Comedy Central, I could see them bringing back Tough Crowd. Colin has done a lot of great work since Tough Crowd was cancelled.

It would make a good podcast

People always say this and it wouldn't. The show was full of so much visual ball busting (making fun of someone's obesity, clothes, style, etc.) that it would make a horrible listen

Podcasts are visual too...

That would all be out of Colin's pocket. Which I feel like he wouldn't be cool with

That's a good point. If only Ant wasn't such a complete bag of shite/failure as a network owner he could have actually had something decent go on in the studio.

Aren't those vidcasts?

Never heard the term, but JRE is a podcast right? With visual elements...You can listen to it with or without the video. No reason TCWCQ wouldn't have a chance under the same format.

You're a negative nelly nigga

Alliteration

You always put me dos. You're by? A

He can try to become a YouTube star. It's not like there'd be a huge overhead if they just did at some comedy club up on stage with some cameras.

It would make a good podcast if there's a max of 5 people (4 guests and Colin, like the original) not like bobby's podcast where he has a dozen people for one show

Sometimes I listen to old OnA shows where they have more than five people on and it's nearly unlistenable. The last one was when Ian Halperin was in with his two whores and they had Jim Jefferies, Opie, Metzger, and Ant. They were just constantly talking over one another and stepping on each others lines. I was actually hoping for an Opie "HOLD ON" to let them know that it was utter shit, but he only did that when he thought he had a good line. Jefferies was the only good part of that show, Metzger was a faggot as usual.

Say more things

Wilmore won't get shit canned, it's the show that cried racist at everything, so can you imagine what would happen when the "Diversity Hire African American Half Hour Hackathon" gets shit canned.

Even though it has lost 60% of the audience that was in that time slot, has given Franchesca Ramsey, a woman who actually said "Political correctness actually expands free speech! The words 'mansplaining', 'genderfluid' and 'genderqueer' were added to the dictionary, that means more words! Therefore, more free speech!", a steady job and the fact that Wilmore pulls the exact same "You honkies gon' argue wid dis?!" face in every picture.

But he's black, talking about the white man his holding a brother down... despite him being on TV, in a job given to him by his white friends, having worked on numerous award winning shows, and his brother is an executive producer on The Simpsons... but the white man is holding mah niggas down!

I hate that cunt.

Oh, I know, I've been in a fantastic mood ever since, I'm giving you an upvote for just reminding me of why I'm in a fantastic mood.

I'm all in! Put Bobo on a panel.

I hear he's lying.

Doh, doh, OIM DOT LOYINGUH

What a username.

"Gmhm heh... Gotcha on tape"

Doh Congratulashuns laydee myeeauhh

Fuck, I'd jizz myself.

Can we get a clip of this? I don't want to listen to Bert for a whole hour+ for this nugget.

Of course Col's interested. Unfortunately no networks share his enthusiasm.

Obviously Colin is interested what has that possibly got to do with the likelihood of it coming back?

I remember Jim mentioning to him it would be great to bring it back and Colin's reply went along the lines of "Oh thanks I never thought of that".

I feel like the world needs Tough Crowd more than ever right now.

It probably won't hit networks, and even if it does there's no reason to think it'll take off in the ratings

The guests that made the show great are either too big to do it now or dead

I would love Tough Crowd to come back. Bring back the old regulars(be nice to see guys like CK and Burr back in the Cumia loop), and sprinkle in all the young guys who are on their way up. Call it Rough Crew if Colin can't get the rights to it.

I would prefer it being on television somehow someway(CC), and not another fucking podcast(same old shit with these podcasts), but if TV isn't happening, Colin gotta get on the TACS network. I don't see why Ant can't work on getting Jimmy in October and in the 99% chance it doesn't happen, then turn to giving Colin a 1 year thing and then get the fuck out of his way and let him do his thing 3x a week. I don't see why he can't throw Colin 500-600 a week to keep him honest. I think TC on his network would bring in A LOT of disgruntled O&A fans who aren't on board right now, or weren't from the beginning.

You are on drugs if you think there's a remote possibility any of that could happen. Why the FUCK would a respected comedian like CQ accept a regular slot on a failing, racist basement podcast hosted by a (now) unfunny old loon? And there is ZERO chance of Jimmy joining full-time either. He stays where the money is, of course he does.

I agree with you about Jimmy.

Colin is probably not happening either, but I don't think it's impossible. He is a local guy, loyal to Ant, and if this truly is a passion project for him to bring this back, why not use Ant's studio to get it done if CC isn't interested?

Even if Colin does one show a week......it's something where if he is busy doing his Broadway stuff, or writing a book, or doing Cop Show, etc, it's a format where he can come into the studio and bang off 5 shows at a clip and bank them for when he is busy(only thing is he would have to choose topics that aren't topical "story of the day" big stories).

Improbable, yes, but let's assume for a minute Colin truly wants to do this, and television/Netflix/YouTube all pass on it. What is a better format than TACS if you consider the equipment, the spot, the conviencnce, etc?

yeah well guess what Bobby, I'm interested too

First, it's Blobby Kelly. Take a look at him now, he looks like Brando as Col. Kurtz.

he's stupid too

Yeah but he's funny so who cares about any of his other attributes.

I dunno if he's stupid so much as he's a big ol' fatty who can't stay away from the DUMPLINGS!

The show wasnt that great...

Of course he's interested.

Look, I'm not a huge Colin fan. But Tough Crowd would not do anything unless it had a big name on it like John Stewart or someone similar. Colin is far from a big name no matter how many of you want to lick his taint.

The PC issues plaguing comedy would hold anything like this even remotely from happening and continuing.

He would also start to figure out "most of my friends aren't that funny!" Putting Jimmy on right away would help him see that. Because I bet he would do a tranny joke and maybe throw Robert Reid in there for something up to date.

edit: being downvoted by the Colin nutsucks

Don't forget A Clockwork Orange

I hope your next meal is unpleasant.

He never finds penis unpleasant.

Butt barf or mouth poop?

Stopped reading after "I'm not a huge Colin fan".
