His mannerisms are extremely gay and annoying, although his show monologues were pretty well put together, they were ruined with his fake laughter and being a cocksucker
Is his wife the only one who doesn't immediately know that Pete is a raging flamer? He's funny though and his podcast and HBO show are good. The tv show could be great if it realized that Pete is a flamer in extreme denial because he was raised in a cult.
I like him! His progressively sliding more and more down the SJW hill isn't out of character at all, is the thing. He's always been like that. But you could do way WAY worse for that type of comic. I mean, literally almost any other comic that fits that bill, including most of his comic friends/almost all his podcast guests. But he is funny. His stand up special on HBO right now is really good. His sketch videos are good. And his podcast when he has someone on that doesnt suck is good!
Isn't his podcast called You Made It Weird or some shit? It's a perfect title to describe the host/guest interactions, at least from the couple I've heard
I've listened to his podcast and watched his TV Shows and comedy so I know a fair bit about him. Two points in his positive:
He acknowledges his lack of interest in masculine things and how he has always gotten along well with women. He also talks about his sexuality which is straight but underlined with insecurities from his christian upbringing.
He is very liberal but because he's all about spirituality and thus forgiveness and understanding, he tries to empathize with Right wingers and doesn't scathe at them like other lefty comics.
Agreed. He's not a dick or condescending, and he actually appears to listen, which is a lost art in discussions of differing opinions. I won't bash him, he's a swell guy.
I used to hate him but god damn it he's luring me in because I liked him on stupid Crashing so much.
The Montreal Comedy Festival from 2 years ago where that giant panel of angry NY comics all ganged up & just smashed him for 10 minutes is my favorite/only truly enjoyable post-Anthony show moment. (Before Jim & Sam) Maron was so unnecessarily rotten to him and it made me laugh.

Agreed but hes funny.
n/a throwawaymanthrows 2017-05-31
I wouldn't be surprised to learn that he is indeed a homosexual.
Still a funny guy though. The Pete Holmes show was criminally underrated.

Yeah? Was it?

Yes it was, guy with an appropriate user name.

Jolly kindhearted fella, can't hate the guy.

he sure is a swellnigger
n/a jofreal 2017-05-31
Fair enough. Just wish he was capable of making anyone laugh. He's profoundly unfunny. Maybe he should pursue a career in grief counseling.

is he the only who looks like John Ritters retarded nephew?
n/a xyniphis 2017-05-31
Looks like lesbian Val Kilmer

He always has this "I just my pants" look on his face. Never liked him.
n/a SirWallaceII 2017-05-31
Did Amy Shroomer present him?
n/a dankfranklin 2017-05-31
I kind of like Pete, and it seems like most everyone here does too.

Seems like a nice guy with potato tits.

This sub likes Pete Holmes, hates Bill Burr. What a time to be alive!
n/a DeafandMutePenguin 2017-05-31
I'm not a fan but he makes me laugh occasionally. I just hate how everything is that annoying I'm not yelling yelling delivery.
Beyond that I could care less what he does. Good luck to him and fuck him.
