Comedy Central

Post by cpebbles »

Dear Comedy Central,

It is physically impossible for anyone with a Y chromosome to listen to Mario Cantone for 2 consecutive minutes without exploding in a righteous fury. That is why he has long since been confined to the pseudo-celebrity dustbin where people gather to be catty about people more famous than themselves. I see another half-hour block of Mario Cantone "comedy" coming up on your channel and I'm going to lose it.

Also, I know that your channel historically has taken a very long time to realize that something isn't working, but just how long can the internet backlash possibly take to get Mind of Mencia off the air? It took a few months to bury Dane Cook, and he's an attractive guy in an age when pop culture is being defined by 14 year old girls.

Yeah, Mario Cantone really sucks! :wink: He is to comedy what spinal meningitis is to comedy.

Why is it that Futurama is on like 3 hours a night on that channel now? C'mon.

A two minute bit on the Dave Chappelle Show does wonders for your career, don't it?

This is worded as a complaint. I don't understand.

I think he wants 4 hours a night and/or CC to pickup a true new season of Futurama.

I....don't like Futurama. I've tried. I love the Simpsons. Sometimes it even makes me laugh. But no dice, I still don't like it.
