Just wondering what your opinions are of this guy ?

Used to think he was quite funny on Mock the Week but not funny enough to go out and buy his DVD....

So I downloaded it instead. Laughing

Just watching it just now and have decided to pause it (06:40) and so far it is fucking hysterical. So far all he has done is abuse the people sitting in the front row of the audience, and you can tell that all his stuff comes right off the top of his head (not made up previously). There probably will be some rehersed jokes throughout but so far it is looking to be an excellent show.

Go and watch it and see what you think yourself.

His Live dvd is fantastic. I was laughing for the next few days every time I remembered one of the jokes.

He is edgy in a good way.
Are you watching the one where he says what do you do, to some girl and turns out she looks after disable children. He deals with that pretty well.

Always wondered why the hell she would go to his show if she didn't enjoy his humour unless she was with mates.

It is called: "If I could reach out through your TV and strangle you". Filmed @ the Appollo.

Got his other dvd and read his book. Tragic and funny.

I was on the front row at his Portsmouth gig was glad he didn't pick on me! I would have cried, he is one person I would not go up against.

Used to like him, but all the stand up I saw of him was the same so got bored. Although if this dvd is new material then I imagine it will be good.

saying that, did any one watch the tramadol nights thing he has on 4? that was pretty poor...

I watched him doing his stand up routine on the telly the other night (late and un-censored) and I loved it Thumbs Up .

He`s not afraid of the political-correctness brigade, he just tells them to "f*ck off" Smile .

He`s now doing that "Tramadol Nights" programme, which is good but not up to the standard of his stand up routines imho.

The knight rider sketch in tramadol nights is incredible. Looking forward to more of that show.

Tramadol nights was terrible.
He was great on mock the week and his stand up can be great, if a little repetitive.

Very disappointed with Tramadol Nights. Love the stand up, but his sketches suck my nuts.
And that's bad.

I like him, but went to see him live when he had just started to gain a reputation, and he recycled a lot of his material, which was very disappointing.

I need to see more of Tramadol Nights, I thought it was funny in parts, tedious in others.

I shall 'acquire' his latest DVD tomorrow Wink .

I have two of his DVD's and they are hysterical. I went to see him in Cardiff bay about 3 years ago and was sat in the 2nd row and ended up getting picked on. He is immense live to be fair. I'll have to get his book now that I know he has one out.

Went and saw him at Hammersmith last month with a mate. Always loved his humour on Mock the Week but his live stage performance is another level of sickness - massively funny. As said before - if you sit in the front row prepare to be destroyed with words!

Quote of the night?

As a lifelong devotee of Sickipedia etc, Frankie Boyle should be my God.

His book to me just read like a very transparent attempt at being offensive just for the sake of it. Whole sentences tacked on to stories that aren't related and had no where else to go. I couldn't wait to finish it and move on to something else.

I do like to see a good audience heckle though, so will give him another chance to entertain me Very Happy

Frankie Boyle tramadol nights NOW.

Hope it is better than the last one. Was funny but nowhere near as good as his live stand up dvd.

Over rated in my opinion.

Far better comedians out there that are generally "offensive" (in the sense that they get you to question your day to day assumptions) - eg Chris Rock, Mitch Fatel, Oswalt Patton, Doug Stanhope.

Chris Rock? Are you fucking serious? Your opinion on anything is now invalid.

ahahahaha couldn't agree more with Muzza there. Chris rock is just awful. If he didn't swear, he would just be a racist guy, not a comedian.

There seems to be alot of "ethnic" ( for want of a better word) comedians at the moment that if they were white or Jim Davidson they wouldn't be given the time of the day, but it seems they are now given the headliner act status.

I saw him live in October, very funny guy. He did the jokes about Jordan's kid, they were sick but very funny. I did wonder if he would ever do them on TV, turns out he did and funnily enough the Ho aint happy.


I likes Frankie Thumbs Up .
