he deserved it

[Jordarnm]

A lot of alternative comedians dislike Michael McIntyre because he's purely observational and so they consider his work to lack any intellectually stimulating content and consequently to lack value.

If I was as ugly as Armando I would wear a mask and fuck off.

@warmm0nkey He's disliked mostly by 'mainstream' comedians who haven't made as much money or had as much air-time. Very much a case of pot, kettle and black - they try their best to get their faces everywhere, McIntyre does it better, and so they knock him for it. I think that's what Armando Iannucci is commenting on.

I think he's OK - can take or leave him, thought his first Apollo routine was great - but I like him a lot more than the likes Russell Howard, Andy Parsons and Gina Yashere.

@tcdude001 He wasn't having a go at him :/ He was remarking on the way that people (perticularly in the comedy business) resent him for being so popular.

Michael McIntyre unfunny fucking prick wanker shitebag. fuck him

[tcdude001]

its about time McIntyre was brought back down to earth put him in his own fucking man drawer

[warmm0nkey]

is McIntyre that disliked? I know he's not the best stand up performer, but some of his observations can be pretty funny.

[ExtremeAnalDischarge]

Bemused Michael McIntyre didn't realize he was so disliked by his peers. You can see that by the look on his stupid Asian face.
