The Late Show - Top Ten, 4.1

[QueerRainbow]

#1 isnt funny at all, wtf would you call someone that.... god i hate the late show

[248productions]

#1 isn't funny anymore

[CommonSense0822]

That's just stupid and unfunny to call someone an "androgynous freak show" I'm gonna start watching Leno from now on.

[collatura]

HAHAHAHAHAHA

[amyjuergins]

I agree, don't be oversensitive. It's comedy. If he's going to break the conventions of what a pregnancy should be, he needs to realize that this stuff will surface, and accept it and put up with it.

[treehuggingtranny]

this is disturbing and horribly offensive. this kind of bigotry should NOT be allowed to air on television.

[mealworms]

Vile.

[meaganmichelleday]

this is probably one of the most offensive things i've ever seen.

[deluca65]

yeah they were all fine (actually funny) til number one, they should have just used different words. they could have sent the same message with less offensive words.

[danceuse27]

The first 9 were ok, but # 1 was uncalled for and just plain nasty. Letterman and The Late Show should be making an apology for this.

[theoneness]

that last one would have been better if he had left out the part after the hyphenation. Other than that, it teetered on the edge of sub-amusement.

[eFeminate]

Things were teetering on the edge of acceptable until #1. Screw Letterman.

[ProfKeithford]

Digusting? Thats the number one word I've seen people label this video with, but what do you honestly expect? Comedy all about steering away from the norm, so when you hear about a man who becomes pregnant it's interesting and it's great material. The world is just too damn sensitive these days. I wish it wasn't

[ninamaclean]

Yea...not cool. i wasust invited to a group made against this video take and i just watched it for the first time. that...really sucks for you david man...i feel bad for you and your attitude. not funny.

[kylejparker]

Not appreciated.

[johnkelly46]

Thought it was quite funny personally

[xmyfireflyx]

Me too. I hate it when some people can't take a joke.

[FIGHTTOEXHALE]

not really, hey. you obviously have a pretty poor sense of humour. this guy is a dickhead, and nothing he ever does is funny, let alone this. the only thing that IS funny is the fact that he and other people actually THINK he's funny. but seriously though, worst ever.

[kweezor]

what a prick. on television no less.

[buddyholly28]

This is absolutely disgusting.

It saddens me that this is what counts as "comedy" - for some.

[anastasia0z]

I love Dave Letterman, so this is really disappointing. He really should know better.

[jayseguin1974]

That is one of the most sickening things...an I do blame letterman it is his show....

[vegetariatechic]

D:<

this is FUCKING ridiculous

that was disgusting

NOT funny

IGNORANCE. period.

[JurienDeWode]

The 1st amendment thankfully gives us free speech, but inherent in that freedom is respect and responsibility. Letterman went for an easy target. Comedians can certainly make off-colour jokes, but bullying minorities and making highly personal comments about someone who has done nothing wrong is unacceptable.

No-one should be humiliated like that on national TV.

[TamaraGG]

FFS... stupid twat... some people seriously need to GROW UP!!!

[Anuskasv0]

And by the way... that was some funny shit.

[Anuskasv0]

Don't blame Letterman, blame his writers.

[Dee456]

To refer to a female-to-male transgendered man as an "androgynous freak show" because he is pregnant is not simply ridiculously unfunny... it also serves to perpetuate ignorance. For examples of why this joke wasn't funny, one only has to look at some of the sad comments preceding my own...

[mikeyisred]

SO.

NOT.

COOL.

[gcwxr]

Ignorance.

Interesting how we don't hear the audience response. It was probably applause, anyway.

[Mariogirl16]

Wow. They kept getting less funny as he continued talking.

[xmyfireflyx]

So, call me crazy for having such a radical idea...but maybe she/he should have just stayed a woman. Seems easy enough.

And even saying that this person is a man is technically not true.

And Dave does not need to apologize for this. Yeah, it was a bold joke to make. And if you don't like it, don't watch his show. Comedians aren't always nice about their jokes. Get over it.

[christopherxcarnage]

had he been making racist jokes, which more or less is the same thing, would you have felt the same?

[xmyfireflyx]

racist jokes would NOT have been the same thing at all. race is something you are born into. this girl made a decision.

[ShaneWednesday]

"Androgynous freak show" was completely uncalled for. Way to kick someone when they're down, asshole.

Read up on the story to understand the hardship the poor couple is going through. Read up a little on trans people to maybe catch a bit of understanding to why we have such high suicide rates.

[Jujutsuka4LIfe]

That guy is a fucking freak show. Don't cut your tits off get, pregnant and expect normal people to all hold hands and sing songs around the campfire with you. Tolerance is not the same thing as acceptance.

[alyisafosho]

wow GREAT comeback lmao dumbass

[LakeCoSheriff]

At least they had something to say.

[alyisafosho]

Ok...for all of you people freaking out...its called AMERICA!!! FREEDOM OF SPEECH! Get the fuck over it. I think it's messed up too that the guy is pregnant. Men are NOT meant to be changed into women, and vice versa. Men are also not supposed to have kids, that's just messing with nature right there.

[theloupe]

The simple fact of the matter is that your "definition" of "normal" comes from the incessant brainwashing of how Western Culture/Religion views gender.

Historical records and anthropological records all indicate a more fluid concept of gender. This enlightened view still exists today mainly in Eastern societies where the Catholic patriarchy failed to dominate and crush ancient societies.

So take your version and moral outrage at transfolks and go join the Klan er Catholic Church.

[alyisafosho]

too bad I'm not catholic...or even religious for that matter. Oh fuck now that I said that you're going to twist my words around. Oh well

[theloupe]

As members of a free society, Dave has the right to say what he did, and we have a right/responsibility to call him on his or his writer's bigotry.

This is the kind of language that permeates our society and leads to some individuals thinking that this is a green light to commit violence against LGBT youth and the LGBT community at large.

[Jujutsuka4LIfe]

On one hand you like to point out that we have a free society in which free speech exists. On the other hand you point out that certain speech and thought equates to violence. Nice try but free speech is free speech. Gays and lesbians are not a special protected class of citizens. Fascist.

[alyisafosho]

ur fucking retarded...just because I say something doesnt mean im going to physcically abuse them...thats a little going a little to far now, geeze

[chubbypartridge]

Letterman is an idiot, he obviously just wanted to one-up Jay Leno on his ignorance.

[InvisibleAng]

Shameful.

[karameizi]

I definitely second Tettrabyte. CBS made an awfully wrong move airing this. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Letterman owes an apology.

[calicore]

Letterman sucks anyway. His show isn't funny.

[lp2xxx]

Oh shut up everyone that disagrees with Letterman, the prego dude/girl/whatever it is is a FREAK

[WillBmmm89]

David Letterman should be ashamed of himself and must apologize for what he has said.

[Tettrabyte]

This is offensive to the transgender community, CBS and the Letter should be ashamed.

[Fergenstein]

Agreed. It was a funny list, but number one was pretty messed up.

[RectifieD]

Good list, cept for Number one... not many laughed... correctly

[northberlin]

its not like he writes anything anymore he just gets on their and reads his cues and lists he cant really say "this is disgusting im not reading this." it wude be better if he kept on writing the show like he used to tho so hes not forced to use shit jokes that some unfunny douchebag made up

[toni470]

Man.. that's F'd up, Dave... does anybody even watch his show anymore?

[peziak]

No 1 is unnecessarily cruel!!! This is the 1940's Letterman, bigotry ain't the fad any more.

[cuteblondecrystal]

I am shocked that Letterman would say that, especially his last comment. He should issue an apology.

[camarogyrl]

As a Trans person and some one who loves Letterman I must say that I did find it offensive. If at was a African American , Hispanic, disabled or any other minority he would not have gone where he did. We are a growing population and enough is enough with discrimination here or any where else.

[toni470]

The pregnant guy is Asian-- well, half-Asian.. he's a minority.

[meganblah]

Why do you always have to compare?

You say that like there's no racism on television.

[Jujutsuka4LIfe]

It's a joke. You people are circus freaks. Get over it.

[bugogorac]

Why are people getting upset about this? Just a joke... A cruel joke, but no harm meant; that's what matters, no? Oh, wait, we live in a politically correct world, where you can't make jokes... at least not the funny ones...

Stalin would be proud of us.

[xmyfireflyx]

Thank you for saying that! I couldn't agree with you more. It's like you can't say anything anymore because it's not "PC"

What a buzzkill....

[Jujutsuka4LIfe]

If you say something that Gays and Lesbians find objectionable, or disagree with their "rights" to get married or other such bullshit then according to them you are a thought ciminal. Last time I checked Big-Brother didn't delete the 1st ammendment.

[bugogorac]

When you impair somebody's personal rights and interfere in their life, telling them they can't marry, that is not just a thought crime anymore...

[soyallergy]

David Letterman is a douchebag and needs to shut the hell up.

[beachfox00a]

That last one was uncalled for. Yeish.

[conmalone]

This is the lowest I've ever seen Letterman stoop. It's not funny to mock someone because they're transgendered or transitioning. It's cowardly and sick to bully people, particularly minorities who are even more vulnerable. The man having the baby has an incredible story and has been shunned and ignored by doctors - we should be supporting him rather than laughing at what a "freakshow" he is.

[Jujutsuka4LIfe]

Why should we "support" something that is quite frankly abnormal and immoral? I tell you what I will tolerate this freak show but I on't accept it. That's all society owes any group of people.

[pcyr]

Being left handed is abnormal, I guess we shouldn't accept left handed people. And how is a state of identity immoral? Even the churches don't say homosexual feelings are immoral; not even they are that stupid. So how is being transgendered immoral?

[248productions]

@conmalone Incredible story? What ae you smoking? That is just sick.

[mikma]

mikma was here

[eleventhirtytwo]

Dave cracking up, makes me crack up. He's hilarious!

#7 is the best! Gotta love Maury and his tests! hahaha

[ItsDanielSun]

Go the top ten Dave is the best

3rd?

[deeroks1]

2nd

[wolffsrevier]
