I love the comments in Stewart Lee videos. As Ricky Gervais once said (of thick people who don't get his jokes), "if you don't get it, YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO".
@alexvegas There are also people who get the jokes but don't find them funny. I really enjoy Stewart Lee but hate the assumption of intellectual superiority a lot of his fans have. Nobody likes a smug twat.
he said, "what I know about hauntings is that the age of the structure is immaterial and they're most likely to occur at the scene of a terrible tragedy" so by implication a terrible tragedy has happened in/at the queen's vagina.

he's the worst comedian I've ever seen he only makes jokes about other people who are better than him and can totally see why he was adopted because if I were responsible for this this thing I'd shoot myself

@1RothMan ok but he is still a better comedian than this guy, even his rating on his videos are better than stewart lee's... btw people at 14 or younger shouldnt get alot of frankie boyle's jokes... alot of them wouldnt get them cos they would still be too innocent
@BlakeTower obviously comedy is a matter of opinion. I think Stewart Lee is one of the best, whereas Frankie Boyle is only slightly better than Russell howard, and that is not a compliment
@1RothMan it clearly is a matter of opinion and both russell howard and frankie boyle are better than stewart lee. in my opinion and based on like/dislike bar on each of their videos.
@1RothMan if you dont care then why do you reply to me ?who are you to speak for everyone else on the planet.. when i find a comment that i couldnt give a shit about what the person thinks i just dont bother reply... do you reply to everyones comments that you couldnt care less about ?? its youtube comments, people write their opinions if you havent noticed, so thats why i bothered letting ye know... why are you so angry??
@coltsuperocean10 i know !!!!!!! i just said it to turn what he said on himself, if you werent so thick you would have got that... but then again you are a fan of stewart lee so you dont have enough brain cells to understand simple things like this... why are you losing your temper ?? i wasnt even talking to you and your clearly a little immature child since you went to go call me a "stupid retard" after i had not offended you previously
@timg63 how was the word literally misused ?? that makes perfect sense.. there must be something wrong with you if you find this idiot funny... btw how sad of you to go back that far in the comments to find my comment, you were clearly looking for an argument
@BlakeTower In your sentence, it goes without saying that you were using the verb ''to laugh'' in its literal meaning, as opposed to a figurative, symbolic or metaphorical one, thus rendering its use, within the context, entirely useless. An example would be like me saying ''I literally ran 2 miles today'' - unnecessary application of the word literally when ''I ran 2 miles'' would suffice. Likewise you could have just said ''I never laughed at anything this man has said''.
@timg63 people exaggerate so that why i used the word literally.... people could say they ran 2 miles today when in reality they didnt... it makes sense...btw why would you bother going back that far to find my comment, you were trying to find an argument.
@BlakeTower you are right, it does make sense since, in this instance, the meaning of what you were saying came across, but it was still misused. Maybe I was looking for an argument but there is no harm in healthy debate. You might find him funnier if you understood that he is not criticising Frankie Boyle as a person or even as a comic, just wittily highlighting the absurdity of one of his comments with sarcasm which can be funny but I guess if you don't like him then that's fine.
@timg63 i know that he isnt criticising frankie boyle.its just that i dont find him funny. but i watched this video hoping that i might see a different side to stewart lee and find him some bit funny. i used the word literally cos i could say to a friend that i never laughed at this comedian and so on, when in actual fact i have laughed at a joke or two but overall wouldnt class him as a good comedian,for example i dont like ed byrne but i have laughed at a few of his jokes
@timg63 How long did you spend writing that out big head? I'm one of the pro Stewart Lee set by the way, I just thought i'd tell you how much of a sad twat you look! Watching a video of an articulate man doesn't make you one.
Both comedians are excellent in their own way, GhastlyCretin85 is spot on with his assessment. I do love Frankie Boyles lack of self preservation when he tells a joke, and Stewart Lee is really quality over quantity.
@Gayestskijumpever I've had a better laugh looking in my bog, which I do do from time to time. This guy is not funny, never has been and is out-of-date. It was nice of you to try with your comments, but likewise, you are not funny either. Thanks for trying hard - it was a nice gesture.
the best satirist, deconstructionist comedian out there. frankie boyle attacks anything and everything without a conscience. they're both good in their own way.
Well, I found that funny. Also I'm thoroughly amused by many of the comments below, considering that humour is based on individual taste much of what has been contributed to this thread is redundant.
I came here to see someone take the piss out of Frankie Boyle. I got the most unfunny "comedy" I have ever seen in my life. Some comedians just aren't of my taste, but this was just terrible

How anybody thinks that Stewart Lee's delivery is bad is beyond me. He's a master in my opinion. And the people that say his fans are pretentious usually have an agenda because they're fans of the people he has a go at.
Frankie Boyle has balls in the sense that he tells potentially career ending jokes but I've never found somebody who's controversial for the sake of it funny. Though I'm sure he's some kind of 'edgy' God among fans of that horseshit panel show.
Lee's voice is monotonous (ie boring), and his routines are bogged down with long pauses and sloooow speaking, which essentially gives an audience half the material they would get from most other stand-up shows. Yes, that's bad delivery.
As for the material itself, I can honestly say I've never laughed at Stewart Lee. A couple of wry smiles, but that's it.
I randomly clicked on two Lee videos today...by strange coincidence, in both of them, he complains about "one person clapping". That kind of underwhelmed audience reaction is rather telling.
@garethac81 You obviously can't tell when he's being facetious, so there's almost no point in you trying to enjoy any comedy besides knock knock jokes.
Whether or not he is being "facetious" is entirely irrelevant to the point I was making. Do I need to spell it out for you? If the sound of one man clapping is familiar to Stewart Lee, perhaps he isn't the comedic genius some claim him to be.
Knock knock jokes? Thanks, I'll stick with Bill Hicks, George Carlin, Lewis Black...you know, comedians who are insightful AND funny.
all i see of this guy is him taking the piss out of the comedians that made it, and are famous, whilst he does a pub gig every weekend, ive heard of this guy, but only because he was on a panal show.
The British public in general are idiots and they will laugh at any joke that they can actually manage to comprehend. That's why Michael McIntyre and Russel Howard get so much commercial success. There's no wit, rhetoric or even a modicum of talent in their material, they can just relate to the dim-witted audiences which, unfortunately make up the majority.
In conclusion, comedic talent =/= national recognition
@tnucateM This is exactly the pretentious, hipster douchebag sort of comment you'd expect from a Lee fan, yet they all swear that such stereotypes are horse shit. We get the jokes, his delivery is just drab and he is completely unrelatable. The fact you can force a laugh at such bad delivery doesn't make you smarter, just more desperate to seperate yourself from the majority.
@MrJonnyh94 - you can't comprehend that some poeple find this funny. That's a fault on your part not anyone else's. I find this funny (not as much as older Lee stuff, ironically) but I like a variety of comedy. The term "hipster" has been invented by people like yourself who are generally ignorant of non-mainstream art and how it appeals to people. You don't have to like it, just understand it. It appears you don't even do that. You don't understand why long pauses are funny, I do!
@the1musiclad The term hipster, has been invented by people like me to refer to people who bash everything mainstream as 'garbage', and label the rest of society as being mentally inferior compared to them. Something you have clearly displayed in your previous comment.
@MrJonnyh94 - I'm not bashing everything mainstream as garbage. I never said that. I said that you can only understand somebody liking mainstream art. There's a difference. You clearly don't understand why people like Stewart Lee. That is fact. I'm explaining that I DO understand (I naturally find this funny). Who are you to criticise someone's taste in art? That is extremely arrogant (and misguided, saying as you don't understand said art).
@the1musiclad Sorry i got confused here as you replied to my reply to another comment, i just assumed the first comment was yours and your reply was defending it. Yes you never said anything of the sort, my bad. I can understand that comedy is subjective yes and that different tastes apply to different people. What i can't understand is some of his fans claiming people who don't like his work are incapable of understanding it, when clearly we are. Once again, my bad.
@MrJonnyh94 Sorry, when did i mention that you have to be intellectual to like Stewart Lee's humour? Oh that's right, i didn't.
I was simply having a go at your ridiculous statement that 'He must be a bad comedian because he isn't well known' and if you look at the comedians that are well known and nationally recognised they are truly unfunny. No parallels can be drawn between success and talent, to do so would be just ludicrous, even you must see that....
@tnucateM Sorry when did i mention that? Oh that's right, i didn't. Ironic of you to accuse me of putting words in your mouth then doing the exact same to me.
How is his delivery relevant to his fame? That's all i have critised, yet here you are ranting on about how recognised he is like a typical hipster douchebag.
@tnucateM Exactly, look at Russell Howard. Very well known, for some reason has his own show. What is that show comprised of?
Shit sketches that he *always* leads in for some reason, "comedians" he picks who all seem to have this amazing talent to suck comedy from a room... oh and overused youtube clips.
The only "good news" that could come from that show is cancellation due to Russell tripping and skewering his own under-developed testicles on one of his guests abnormally large foreheads.
Most of Lees 'fans' are pretentious hipster wannabes, who claim his humor is too intelligent for most people. The reality is, everyone gets his jokes, but his delivery is poor and his attitude makes you want to fall asleep. In short? He's boring. If he wrote the material and someone else delivered it then maybe i would be amused, but quite frankly watching him just makes me want it to be over as quickly as possible.
@MrJonnyh94 Except MrJohnnyh94 obviously is aware of Lee's comedy as he made a long statement slating his work. It was a previously formed opinion, wasted on a good video. It does seem odd that someone who clearly has such a strong view on someone's comedy would choose to watch it. Kanonite makes a fair point, you sir, are the moron.
@Wallij15 So i can't have watched other videos before comming to my conclusion on this video of the many Lee videos on the internet? Yes, i made a series of observations over several videos, this just happens to be the one upon which i concluded. Your assumption i came out of the blue, picked a random video and spewed a preformed opinion on it is ridiculous at best.
@moralreef You're a prime example of one of his 'fans'. Petty attempts at 'intelligent' humor and mimicking his style because it makes you 'cool'. Please return when you have begun to grow pubic hair you sheeple.
@moralreef It still isn't working you know, i can tell you're trying really hard to fit in so you can go and sit on the big table with the cool kids. But somethings just aren't meant to be champ.
@MrJonnyh94 its like a mirror being turned unto my soul. what an incredibly insightful person and a badass who knows what he is talking about. we should get you a gigantic crown that says 'the 17-year old boy who is always right on youtube' and put you on a massive float and parade you all over london. oh how the children will weep with glee
@MrJonnyh94 I could make sweeping statements about people who hate Stewart Lee as well. It seems that they are just as pretentious and arrogant as they claim his fans are. They claim they get his jokes and complain about his style (despite acknowledging most of the time that humour is subjective). They always spend the time to try and watch and comment on the comedian to justify their dislike of him and feel better about themselves. Most of them seem to be insecure cunts to be perfectly honest.
@mrevilevil2 Not hard to come across as arrogant when dealing with morons. I've already explained why i am watching and commenting, if you're going to criticise at least read the full context first. It may be a sweeping comment, but everyone who replies just helps to justify it by fulfilling the label.
@MrJonnyh94 No, I wasn't specifically talking about you, like I said, I was making a sweeping statement, and many people who hate Stewart Lee seem to love watching more than they need to and attacking or criticising Lee and his fans so passionately.
What I'm trying to prove to you is that you're being ignorant and hypocritical. What is the real case here? It's that some people like Stewart Lee's style of comedy and some don't. Trying to polarise it further to create a war is stupid. So stop.
@mrevilevil2 Create a war? I voiced my opinion on Lee and how his material is funny but his delivery is poor? How is that starting a 'war'? Unless you're some sort of idiot who can't see your 'idol' getting any form of critism, lest you strike out and start a comment war, then i fail to see how i am inciting a 'war'. How am i being ignorant and hypocritical? All i've seen is more and more evidence of the stereotype i commented upon.
@MrJonnyh94 Oh shut up you fool. Now you're just twisting, misinterpreting and avoiding. You insulted "most" Stewart Lee fans in your pathetic original comment.. something which quite obviously isn't backed and isn't true. The majority of his 'fans' just like his comedy. How can you come to immature conclusions from Youtube comment sections?
I don't care about you criticising Stewart Lee. Call him boring or tedious or whatever. Just don't make sweeping generalisations about people who like him.
@mrevilevil2 Deleting your comments after you realise the stupidity of your statements but insisting it is me that needs to grow up. The crippling irony of you lauding me as a hypocrite.
@MrJonnyh94 Actually I deleted it to correct a spelling and grammar mistake. The statement I made is still there. Trying to point out a completely natural mistake for intellectual point scoring is pretty pathetic even by your standards (not that I hadn't noticed a comment you deleted previously either, but I'm not a childish moron who feels the need to point it out as an attempt to feel smarter).
You really do need to grow up. You also need to learn the meaning of the terms hypocrisy and irony.
@mrevilevil2 As far as i can see no such statement remains. How sad. Yes i deleted a comment to correct a grammatical error. Only i reposted it 5 seconds later and my comment was an answer to your criticisms, unlike yours which was a ridiculous statement. An attempt to seem smarter? In all honesty i didn't even check to see if you had made a spelling error, i just saw a dumb comment in my inbox yet it was nowhere to be seen here. Pointing out your backpeddling, not trying to seem smarter.
@MrJonnyh94 Wow. Could you truly embarrass yourself any further? How about you scroll down a tiny bit huh? Or are you really that mentally retarded?
Look up the definition of backpeddling too. Seriously, you're using words that don't apply to the situation in any way whatsoever... You really are attempting to sound smart but you're failing miserably. What a waste of time.
@mrevilevil2 I have scrolled down and there is nothing there. Would you like some screen shots, maybe i could mail you some photographs?
back·ped·al·ing or back·ped·al·ling 1. To move the pedals of a bicycle or similar vehicle backward, especially to apply a brake. 2. To move backward by taking short quick steps, as in boxing or football. 3. To retreat or withdraw from a position or attitude.
Retracting statements isn't the same as withdrawing from a position in your world? Lol ok.
@MrJonnyh94 Can you seriously not see it? The comment that says "That's the thing about sweeping generalisations - individual reinforcements don't justify them. I suggest you grow up."
Just under your comment that says "Deleting your comments after you realise the stupidity of your statements but insisting it is me that needs to grow up. The crippling irony of you lauding me as a hypocrite."
Boyle just tries to be as abusive, controversial and disgusting as possible. Anyone can do crude, low-brow humour. Boyle is on the same level of 15 year olds.
As much as I like both boyle and stewart lee's comedy. Lee has turned his shows into a dick measuring competition with other comedians and acts he's the only guy who is allowed to be a comedian. He also seems to think that if your on the tv your somehow not funny anymore, which is obviously not true at all.
@222Sucram I think a lot of people miss the point of it. I think he knows just how bitter he wants to appear. Like on the second series of comedy vehicle, he used Armando Ianucci to point out all the times he was being hypocritical in his own act; that's the beauty of it.
I like Stewart Lee and Frankie Boyle, also happen to like Michael McIntyre and Jason Manford, so fuck. It's opinion. I like a load of different comedians with different styles, does it matter? They're supposed to make me laugh and they do, job done as far as I'm concerned.
BaronVonPenguin being objective on the matter of subjectivity........."Fucks sake, its all subjective. Can somebody, myself for example, not like both comedians? I think both are great" YES! This guy speaks the truth, I like this guy....oh, wait........
Rodney Dangerfield wasn't successful until he was about 45, and only became more and more successful until his death at age 82, which is 41 twice over.
@10TJ10 An arsenal of words does not intelligence make.
Russell has his moments, which mixed with his arguably likeable and flamboyant manner, makes him popular.
Whereas Stewart.. I liken Mr Lee to rapping. It's got all the elements of music, just not the presentation. Talking and repeating the same word over and over (whether it be by stutter or forced) isn't funny; for me anyway.
As the saying goes, each to their own. I only came here because I saw Frankie's name, so don't start your shit.
@10TJ10 My former comment was in regards to Brand misusing words I believe. I did say 'each to their own'. I understand there's a market for Lee's work, just not a big one; I stand in the big market.
@ahnhenden Misusing words isn't an opinion it's a fact. But i do agree that opinion is an important factor on regards to other matters, which is why these youtube debates never get resolved, they're still quite fun though. I also think what you say about comedy is synonymous with music, as I actually quite enjoy big market frivolous pop however it never gives me the same satisfaction that a true artist does.
Stewart...You bore me.

@timg63 how was the word literally misused ?? that makes perfect sense.. there must be something wrong with you if you find this idiot funny... btw how sad of you to go back that far in the comments to find my comment, you were clearly looking for an argument
BlakeTower 4 days ago
@BlakeTower In your sentence, it goes without saying that you were using the verb ''to laugh'' in its literal meaning, as opposed to a figurative, symbolic or metaphorical one, thus rendering its use, within the context, entirely useless. An example would be like me saying ''I literally ran 2 miles today'' - unnecessary application of the word literally when ''I ran 2 miles'' would suffice. Likewise you could have just said ''I never laughed at anything this man has said''.

@timg63 people exaggerate so that why i used the word literally.... people could say they ran 2 miles today when in reality they didnt... it makes sense...btw why would you bother going back that far to find my comment, you were trying to find an argument.
BlakeTower 3 days ago
@BlakeTower you are right, it does make sense since, in this instance, the meaning of what you were saying came across, but it was still misused. Maybe I was looking for an argument but there is no harm in healthy debate. You might find him funnier if you understood that he is not criticising Frankie Boyle as a person or even as a comic, just wittily highlighting the absurdity of one of his comments with sarcasm which can be funny but I guess if you don't like him then that's fine.

@timg63 i know that he isnt criticising frankie boyle.its just that i dont find him funny. but i watched this video hoping that i might see a different side to stewart lee and find him some bit funny. i used the word literally cos i could say to a friend that i never laughed at this comedian and so on, when in actual fact i have laughed at a joke or two but overall wouldnt class him as a good comedian,for example i dont like ed byrne but i have laughed at a few of his jokes

How anybody thinks that Stewart Lee's delivery is bad is beyond me. He's a master in my opinion. And the people that say his fans are pretentious usually have an agenda because they're fans of the people he has a go at.
Frankie Boyle has balls in the sense that he tells potentially career ending jokes but I've never found somebody who's controversial for the sake of it funny. Though I'm sure he's some kind of 'edgy' God among fans of that horseshit panel show.

@GhastlyCretin85
Lee's voice is monotonous (ie boring), and his routines are bogged down with long pauses and sloooow speaking, which essentially gives an audience half the material they would get from most other stand-up shows. Yes, that's bad delivery.
As for the material itself, I can honestly say I've never laughed at Stewart Lee. A couple of wry smiles, but that's it.
PS: I am not a fan of Frankie Boyle.

Whether or not he is being "facetious" is entirely irrelevant to the point I was making. Do I need to spell it out for you? If the sound of one man clapping is familiar to Stewart Lee, perhaps he isn't the comedic genius some claim him to be.
Knock knock jokes? Thanks, I'll stick with Bill Hicks, George Carlin, Lewis Black...you know, comedians who are insightful AND funny.

The British public in general are idiots and they will laugh at any joke that they can actually manage to comprehend. That's why Michael McIntyre and Russel Howard get so much commercial success. There's no wit, rhetoric or even a modicum of talent in their material, they can just relate to the dim-witted audiences which, unfortunately make up the majority.
In conclusion, comedic talent =/= national recognition

@tnucateM This is exactly the pretentious, hipster douchebag sort of comment you'd expect from a Lee fan, yet they all swear that such stereotypes are horse shit.

@MrJonnyh94 - you can't comprehend that some poeple find this funny. That's a fault on your part not anyone else's. I find this funny (not as much as older Lee stuff, ironically) but I like a variety of comedy. The term "hipster" has been invented by people like yourself who are generally ignorant of non-mainstream art and how it appeals to people. You don't have to like it, just understand it. It appears you don't even do that. You don't understand why long pauses are funny, I do!

@MrJonnyh94 Sorry, when did i mention that you have to be intellectual to like Stewart Lee's humour? Oh that's right, i didn't.

No parallels can be drawn between success and talent, to do so would be just ludicrous, even you must see that....

Most of Lees 'fans' are pretentious hipster wannabes, who claim his humor is too intelligent for most people. The reality is, everyone gets his jokes, but his delivery is poor and his attitude makes you want to fall asleep. In short? He's boring. If he wrote the material and someone else delivered it then maybe i would be amused, but quite frankly watching him just makes me want it to be over as quickly as possible.

They claim they get his jokes and complain about his style (despite acknowledging most of the time that humour is subjective). They always spend the time to try and watch and comment on the comedian to justify their dislike of him and feel better about themselves. Most of them seem to be insecure cunts to be perfectly honest.

And good spot for likening Lee to hip-hop, however you maybe misconstrued but I got the sense that you don't hold rap in high esteem.
