Default Re: American humor ain't funny!

Smartest humors around? Monty Python is retarded. Bunch of guys hitting eachother constantly. Ever seen the Chapelle show? That is a good example of what Americans find funny.

European society is no better then American society. You guys got higher murder rates then we do, and larger rape rates if you divide the populations of European countries into America.

I don't know any other link to a good english show that you can watch online/dowload (legally).
If you can post a better example of british humor then do so by posting a link.

You used America's Funniest Home Videos in your example in the beginning of this thread. I'm American and that show drives me crazy. I don't know anybody that finds that host funny. His 'jokes' are stupid. I'm not sure why the people there laugh, maybe they are told to. Or maybe they just came from a lobotomy.

I like British humor, (Benny Hill, Mr. Bean) although sometimes I find that, in some of the later Monty Python sketches at least, it drags on and on. It tends to be funny for the first 3 or 4 minutes of each sketch, but then it becomes random. Although a lot of the sketches are very random and inexplicably funny. (Has anyone ever seen 'the larch' sketch?)

I have decided to live forever...

Is that why the British version of Who's Line is It Anyway was cancelled?
