Hello hello hello all... another new person from Blighty here. ^__^
Quick information, then: Good comedy has saved my life on many occasions, even literally once, I think. I tend to go through phases of being completely obsessed with one show/comedian(s) and feeling like I'll never move on, before the next one comes along. My first obsession was Whose Line Is It Anyway (UK), the show that opened the world of British comedy to me with a bang. Currently I'm on the Vic & Bob line, and have very nearly watched/listened to everything they've ever done, as well as knowing a startling amount of trivia about them. Which scares me slightly, but it's just how I do things! C8
I have a tendency to like older and older-fashioned comedy best, but there is potloads of modern gold too. I generally don't like stand-up comedy at all, with only rare exceptions (Eddie Izzard being one such rare case, lego versions included). I think it's the format, really, the fact that someone is stood in front of you, constantly trying to make you laugh. I'm more of a panel-show person. C:
....and now (if you bothered to read that) you know a load of useless information about me! Congratulations!
