PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue

"Let's Have Our Own Little Vote..." |
LAST EDITED ON 07-30-03 AT 04:45 PM (EST)Hey, if America gets to vote, why not us? Just as a little mini-poll, let's vote on who we think should be the last comic standing. To cast your vote, just reply to this post and put the name of the person who you think should be the LAST COMIC STANDING in the subject line. Just for reference, here's a list of the five finalists: Ralphie May
Dat Phan
Tess
Rich Vos
Cory Kahaney If you want to, put a little explanation of why you voted the way you did in the text. Voting will probably close sometime this weekend (most probably Sunday), so cast those votes!  edit: tvgeek, every time I've seen Tess' name come up on the screen, it just comes up Tess. So I don't think she goes by a last name. Would've directly replied this to you, but didn't want this to turn into a discussion thread

I never pegged her as my favorite, but last night, i was laughing at all her jokes. i have a question. does tess have a last name and you just didn't put it up there or is she trying to be like cher or madonna? if she is, its not working.

Yep, voting for the woman. How like me.Anyhoo, while I finally got it last night why Ralphie has such a following, and I thought he did very well last night, I like Cory. Cory winning would also provide the best loser reactions.
- Ralphie is so convinced that he can beat anyone and everyone on stage, so he wouldn't take this well.
- Dat would be clueless, and wonder why it didn't go to a nice guy like him.
- Tess would be knocked down a peg, to not be able to call herself the funniest female in the competition.
- Rich would react quite interestingly to having one of his minions topple "the Don".  Bebo, Queen of the Backwoods and your American Idol PTTE co-champ

She was my favorite last night and her material lends itself well to a sitcom which is part of the prize right?

11. "Dat Phan... I'm serious." |
Okay, so I'll take the unpopular approach and vote in favor of Dat.  His stuff may seem repetitive, but he also had to perform his material for the NBC audience like 5 times in what-- three months, maybe less? I can understand needing to repeat bits that work well. Maybe the veterans could have still-relevant and fresh stuff after performing for the same people five times in a short period, but not many of them seemed to deliver the goods. Dat definitely has his schtick (which I think he varies effectively at times), but having a schtick isn't uncommon in the world of stand up comedy. The other thing I like about Dat is that he doesn't repeat OTHER comics. Some people have pointed out that Rich's stuff last night was stuff they've heard other comics do better, and I think the same goes for Tess (definitely) and even for Ralphie's set last night. I've seen Ralphie be original, but come on... how EASY IS IT to rant about wanting cheaper gas???? Especially for 5 whole minutes! Excruciating! BTW, I also can't believe they're making us wait a week + 2 ridiculous hours to find out the results. After the disappointment that was last night, will we still care?

I wish i could vote for Dave or Bobert...
Damn...Anyways, Cory really surprised me yesterday.
Of the whole gang, she has been the most consistent and she always makes me laugh. In order, i'd say it SHOULD be: Cory
Vos
Ralphie
Dat
Tess Tess was just horrible and nasty. Dat is too repetitive and Ralphie is too much about attitude and not enuf material whereas Vos isnt confident enuf. It's sad tho, cuz i have a feeling Ralphie'll win.

28. "RE: Ralphie" |
LAST EDITED ON 08-03-03 AT 06:30 PM (EST)"patriotism" we've all been tolerating for too long. Are you suggesting that American patriotism is a bad thing, and not to be tolerated? Sure sounds like it to me. I for one am delighted to feel patriotic about America. And to share the conservative values that made America great, and will keep it great, no matter what Enemy faces us. And if you don't like it, or like America or American patriotism: Delta Airlines is ready when you are. And they fly to France. Ralphie's fascist appeal to the worst in America So again you try to equate conservatism with fascism? I doubt you know what fascism really is. Furthermore, I see where the real hate and hate speech is... and it's not Ralphie May. Perhaps the real hate and hate speech can be seen where and for what it is... the attempt to compare conservatism to fascism.
 
Contradictions don't exist. If you are faced with a contradiction, check your premises. You will find that one of them is wrong. -- Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

30. "RE: Ralphie" |
It wasn't patriotism I was objecting to--it was knee-jerk "patriotism." You have skill at taking things out of context to make your point. Clearly Ralphie knows his audience: dimwitted far-right conservatives who can't tell a joke from a diatribe.

34. "RE: Let's keep discussion on topic..." |
Corey's may have been the best written five minutes, but Tess was the only one who made me laugh out loud. Voss cleans up well, also. Dat's routine was mostly funny, but strained in places, which has been true of his comedy throughout. I'm getting a little tired of his mother.

42. "Why is Dat appealing?" |
I think Dat's appealing because he comes up with some unusual, surprising takes on things--he's definitely off-center. His humor is harmless and good-natured, which is appealing to a lot of people. However, I don't think he's the sharpest comic of the bunch by a long shot.

18. "Vos" |
Ralphie's tirade got tired real fast - FYI screaming for 5 minutes is annoying, not funny.I turned the sound off when Dat Phan was on. Maybe it's because I live in NY but I thought Vos was pretty funny. Not spit my drink out and fall to the floor funny but entertaining. Tess has no business being up there. Her act was dead from day one and now it's like it's been dug up, buried, dug up again...miserable.

21. "Ralphie May" |
Another vote for Ralphie.I thought Vos choked. How can someone who has been doing this for 15 years look so uncomfortable on stage? Tess was a classic case of force of personality over material. Dat lost me when he repeated the old joke. FIVE minutes of unseen material shouldbn't have been that difficult. Admittedly, I laughed the first time he did it. It's just not
as funny the second time around. Cory was good, just thought Ralphie was better. A solid performance.

24. "Dat Phan" |
Everyone targeted Dat Phan at the start including myself. Yet he has won my vote because of showing up when he had to having won consecutive battles. I completely agree with ENGPROF, his material is running thin, as we must consider his frequent stage appearances. However, the whole typical stereotypical Asian perspective is quite annoying...and we may never know if it's all an act.

37. "Ralphie..." |
Dave was my favorite but since he's gone I have to vote for Ralphie. I think that his material is not only unique, but it was the *only* completely original material used in the finale. Everyone else seemed to be recycling things that we heard in the semi-finals and showdowns, or the Carson Daly Show. His ranting style sure worked well for noted comedians like Sam Kinnison and George Carlin (all he does is b*tch and complain). The role of a comedian is not just who can get the most cheap laughs but also to make social commentary. I think that Ralphie did just that.

45. "Dat Phan" |
My vote goes to Dat Phan because I like it like Dat but seriously.....why is it that when someone votes for Dat, there
is always some A S S hole who questions you about it? I voted for Dat Phan three times when it really mattered and he won
actually to my surprise. I felt somehow Ralphie would have won
because like he said, " I can rock the mic" while raising two
fingers up to the camera. That always made me cringe. However,
if I had my druthers, I would have picked Dave Mordal...yeah, yeah, I know he wasn't in the final but he definetly was one
of the funniest. Okay, I'll just wait here while some mohr-on tells me how stupid I am and I don't know squat about comedy so forth and so on..............
