The Jeff Dunham Show

[Acturus]

I was worried he wouldn't have enough material for an entire season [...]

This.

Comedians usually have a very hard time remaining "fresh" when they have a regular timeslot to fill.

In addition, unless Dunham expands his army, the characters will go stale.

Having said that, my DVR is primed to record this show. I really like this guy's stand up.

Daniel Tosh is the only comedian next to Dave Chappelle who's show I can stand to watch on a weekly basis. Even then, Tosh has really had to work his way to be tolerable as the first few episodes were almost as bad as Demetri Martin's.

Well, here we go! Premiere is tonight, it's airing (at least on the West Coast) at 6:00, 7:30 and 9:30p.m. If you watch it and want to see my name in the credits, better get your DVR ready - my credit (Andrew J. Lang as one of 4 "Editors") is on screen for just under 1/2 second.

If you watch, let me know what you think.

You did all that work for 1/2 a second credit that is bullshit lol.

[Souj]

You did all that work for 1/2 a second credit that is bullshit lol.

better than what the people in the futurama credits get. the credits get 1/5 of the screen and it's played at about 5times it's normal speed.

[archibaldcrane]

30 seconds of credits is what is allowed for comedy central programming - there's a lot of people to cram in there.

Of course some people get 2 second credits with just their name but.......

In this premiere episode, I edited the segment with Bubba J at the Gun Range. Each episode is edited by multiple people.

Show my fiance works on, they spent forever doing the animation, then they did that bs of showing it split screen with what's coming on next.

Welcome to television.

[Kyo]

I'll hafta watch it after baseball, I planned on watching it but baseball is on at the sametime.

[archibaldcrane]

East Coast it's on at 9:00, 10:30, and 12:30p.m.

Getting pretty terrible reviews.

[Mamimikun]

well his normal stand up is on before his show so at least if the show sucks i can still laugh at the stand up

[Corrderio]

I find it funny so far.

[Insanecyclone]

I find it funny so far.

Yeah it's alright right now

Getting pretty terrible reviews.

The Jeff Dunham Show reviews at Metacritic.com

Heh, I like this one:

There’s Comedy Central’s abysmal The Jeff Dunham Show, a vanity showcase for a nondescript ventriloquist and his grotesque dummies that made me wish I was far away in a festering Samoan rain forest.

[archibaldcrane]

Ok, I'm off to the premiere party, be back later.

[Corrderio]

Yeah, this is pretty good. Not sure what was up those guy's asses on Metacritic.

[Tortalius]

eh. I think his stand up is a lot better, but we'll see. Willing to give it some time, though his outfit made me cringe. He is not someone who can wear bling or have that haircut...way too old, should dress his age.

[Day]

Watched the show. It was good. I really don't care for the whole ventriloquism thing. I mean I respect the fuck out of it, but a lot times it's makes it easy to use lame joke after lame joke and get a laugh. I enjoyed it for what it was though. I know a lot of people are going to eat it up.

[Mamimikun]

lol i liked it just hope it last

[Eanae]

I couldn't really get into it. Especially with Akhmed, it just seemed like he's let his popularity go to his head.
