So, it appears that teenagers like Gary Shandling, Stewart Lee, Simon Pegg, Have I Got News For You, Red Dwarf, Blackadder, Curb Your Enthusiasm...all pretty grown-up stuff really. What a surprise. This just reinforces my thoughts about comedy demographics...that they're largely bullshit. Audiences young and old are basically attracted to funny shows, regardless of the age of the cast / writers, or the hipness of the content. And another thing...

Damn, that was a good rant too.

A lot of people my age are a snobbish towards Only Fools and Horses/One Foot In The Grave/Porridge/etc for no valid reason, but other that that yeah.

I also hate that. Profuse apologies if it wasn't the insinuation, but I happen to be a teenage girl, but like The Mighty Boosh for more than getting in a state over Mr. Fielding.

I'm just saying, from my experience, quite a lot of Boosh fans are teenage girls with a thing for Noel Fielding, I've heard tales of their gigs being packed with 'em.

I'm not saying teenage girls in general or only teenage girls, just that they've definitely got a considerable teenage audience.

Make something funny and they will come.

Try to hard to make a laugh nad you look like a sad drunken uncle at a wedding who thinks he should of done stand up... painful
