He lives in Denver now. But he grew up in St Paul Minnesota.

He is very funny....

He is funny, but I truly believe Chris Porter or Ty should have won this season. They consistently had me laughing much more than Josh.

I liked Ty, Chris Porter got on my nerves, and I think Josh got too many sympathy votes throughout the competition

. I mean, Josh was funny, but he milked the handicapped jokes a little too much imo. A few are okay, but it felt like overkill after a while, just like Roz's yelling "bitch" after every sentence--any schtick gets old fast if you use it too much

.

^ Agreed. He needs to get some additional material soon.

I'd heard people say that they think Chris may have put voters off with his "little girl on a bike hit by stoners" bit, saying it was offensive. Personally, I LMFAO at that bit, I've been repeating it to everyone I know.

Just an FYI for you all, Dat Phan is STILL using the same jokes he used while he was a contestant on Last Comic Standing. I hope Josh can get past that and think of some fresh material.

I agree with the idea that Josh won on sympathy votes. He's a funny guy, and I think that what he's doing is great. I just think that comparatively speaking he wasn't the best. Of course, home viewers can't make themselves feel like better people voting for someone without a disability.

That's ok . You have a different opinion. No big deal.

I thought he was funny, but I mean how long will it be before his schtick is old? I mean, good for him and I liked him, but I just...just, oh, I don't know.

Everyone blew fairly large chunks compared to Ty, IMO.

skcin · #12 08-14-2006, 07:22 PM

^ It's because he's the black Power Ranger. He's the fastest.

I like him too. :sad:

I was at most of the last tapings - my friend Chuck Vinson directs Last Comic Standing!
