I liked Michael McIntyre before he became ubiquitous.
Ubiquity is a strong justification for hatred.
Michael McIntyre! Page 5
Quote: Quentin @ November 17 2008, 11:57 PM BSTI went to see him live on his tour a couple of weeks ago. He was fantastic! Very, very funny! Then, when he ran onstage to do his encore he slipped and fell, dislocating his shoulder. Everyone laughed at first not realising the extent of his injury. I was sitting three rows from the stage and could hear him shout for help but everyone thought he was joking so continued to laugh. After a while though we all started to wonder if he was ok and then we heard him say he thought he'd broken his arm! The stage manager came out and thanked the audience on behalf of Michael and asked us all to leave the theatre! A very weird ending to such a fantastic gig! Q!
Dislocated his shoulder? If they'd left it out of its socket, he'd now be able to take off during that 'skipping while also swinging your arms' routine he does.
I saw him talking about Wimbledon tennis.
I just hate his voice and mannerisms and I just want to smack him in the face.
Anyone one else reckon that McIntyre's permanently hyper-jolly delivery makes his material seem even funnier? Not that there's much wrong with his material in the first place - he's a funny bloke. But I can see how his style could get annoying.
I think he's funnier than most of his material. But some of it's okay.

Within Comedy, Cinema and Music there always exists a market for people who don't like Good Things. McIntyre helps cater to this market.
No need to debate the point, he himself would probably tell you that he isn't passionate about using stand-up as a means unto itself, he is intrested in £££££s, self-indulging a fame-hungry face-on-TV agenda whilst peddling dogshit material that makes Bobby Ball look like Lenny Bruce.
He always says he looks Chinese: funny that, I doubt many Chinese men look in the mirror and see a flabby dead-eyed toff staring back.
"Ever notice how the Argos catalogue is really, really heavy?"
Ahh, what a jester.
"The Logical Song" was released in 1979. Michael McIntyre was born in 1976. Apparently he was born when he was three years old?

If he was in the music business he would give 100m selling album hack James Last a run for his money
I see he's commented on the amount of comics who slag him off. It must feel a bit shit.
Yeah I just read that. 
He does seem to attract a disproportionate amount of bile.
I'm all for slagging people off behind their backs. 
But doing it to his face on live TV at the Comedy Awards was pretty out of order I thought.
I missed that zooo, what happened?
Well I can't remember specifics. But it seemed every other person on stage made some pointed remark about him being shit.
I expect is was only actually 2 or 3 instances, but I found it a bit uncomfortable. It wasn't comics taking the piss out of their comic friends (which happens all the time at those things) it was a bit more pointed and cruel. And they kept showing his little baffled face. Aw.
