Why has comedy dumbed down so much since those days?

It has to pitch for a younger, less intelligent audience, obsessed with male genitals.

Silly question, really, now I come to think of it...

It certainly has changed beyond recognition, because it appeals to such a different audience. But I haven't seen anything I would call classic comedy in the last five years!

Well you see Jon I'm in a Catch 22 position. I am using this comedy aimed at young, lacking in intelligent cock hunters as an escapism to divert my attentions away from the stressful realisation that I am in fact young, lacking in intelligence and obsessed by the cicumference of the male genital. It's a vicious circle.

It's still my contention that the most sophisticated comedy today is on Cartoon Network, which is appropriate since the Goons was a kind of radio cartoon.

I agree, though the best are now on terrestrial channels as well, e.g. Johnny Bravo, Dexter's Laboratory.

But not Rocko's Modern Life.

Johnny Bravo isn't funny.

Except for the one Twilight Zone episode with the clowns, they miss the point by... ohh... aobut a mile.

Sheep In The Big City was good, but no, the viewers opted to have one more "Johnny-hilariously-falls-over" episode rather than a marvelous cartoon which had as many laughs as i've had...



...well, things. That I've had lots of.

Don't bother adding any more to this thread unless you're going to express an opinion about the "Out Of The Trees" situation.

"Murder, She Wrote In The Wrong Thread"?

Sam you and me have an intimate understanding of one another.

Posted By Sam D on Thu Aug 31 16:22:14 BST 2000:

I don't understand.
