Amy Schumer is not funny 7
#21955793 - 07/17/15 11:49 AM (8 years, 6 months ago) |

For some reason Comedy Central is advertising Amy Schumer as this incredibly funny person. Every thing is Amy Schumer this or that. Has anyone watched her show? It is hard to fucking watch I just cringe the whole time. I have never heard a single good joke told by her. Her skits are even worse it is other famous people doing her skits with her in the back round just like staring into space. After the 3rd dumb blonde slut joke no one cares anymore come up with something new. Does anyone feel me on this.

Yea it's a lot of sex jokes and mocking herself. I have hopes for her though, she isn't too bad and a lot of comedians get better the longer they do it.
If you're into it, I'd definitely recommend Chelsea peretti, the way she filmed her stand up and the random audience shit she does is annoying but she is really good.

My girlfriend think she's funny but I think she's definitely overhyped. She'll fade into obscurity in a few months guaranteed

I think her stand up is pretty funny i've only watched a few though. I totally agree with you about the show though. I've watched it a few times and the skits are mediocre and not very funny. I dont enjoy watching it. That movie coming out with her in it doesn't look that great either. So overall i agree, she isn't the greatest female comedian. I'll probably still give that movie a watch(don't remember the name)

shes really bad and shes not even hot shes like fugly as fuck. Her stand up is horrible it makes my skin crawl. Honestly I hope she gets fat and falls into a deep depression and no one will ever have to hear her make stupid jokes about her pussy or whatever the fuck is going on in that simple bitches tiny brain. I honestly want to punch her in the face. Its shit like this why the once great network of comedy central is circling the shitter.

Blatantly slutty humor. In my opinion, it's degrading to women.

It's jokes, it's not degrading to anything, in the same way jokes about race aren't racist, and no joke can ever be offensive, you can take offense to it if you want, but it wasn't meant to offend..you have to realize half the shit comedians say are totally made up, they say what they think is funny, even if it's something they personally disagree with they'll still say it if they think people will laugh at it.
Jokes are nothing more then jokes, anything people say about it after it is said is nothing more then a reflection of those people, not the comedian. They say ridiculous things to get people to laugh, if people laughed, they did their job right. She isn't trying to degrade women, she's trying to make people laugh, just because you take it that way, doesn't mean that's how it's intended.

But her humor has no real basis. It's just her slut shaming herself. It's not all that funny. I don't think it helps the current standards for women

It doesn't do anything for the current standards of women, if anything it makes Amy Schumer look like a slut, and nothing more. I'm not trying to tell you you're wrong to think the way you do about it since you're entitled to your opinion, but point being that just because you see it that way, doesn't mean it's meant that way.
It's like when people say "did comedy go to far" and bring up a bit a comedian did at a show that someone filmed, and in that VERY SAME CLIP you can hear everyone in the crowd laugh, and they still call it controversial. They're guilty of telling a joke that worked, it's just a joke intended for an audience that wants to laugh and it gets blown up into fabricated controversy that only becomes a real issue if the comedian decides to respond to it, if they shut up, it blows over and they keep telling that joke. One person telling jokes can't do anything for the image of an entire type of person, like women, black people, white people, nobody.
The only reason I felt the need to explain, is because thoughts like your statement are what try to censor comedy, if you don't like it...fine...but many other people do, and they are allowed to say what they want, and if it isn't funny, people won't laugh and they'll change the joke, but they should be allowed to say whatever they want regardless and the audience will decide whether it was funny or not. Comedy is the last haven for true freedom of speech, and censoring any part of it or trying to is a disgrace (not saying you're trying to, I just hate when people paint jokes with such a wide brush and act like jokes have any type of real power over other people)

Chelsea Perreti is my favorite female comedian!!! id hit that until the end of time if i could. something about her nose idk..
Amy shumer is not all that bad she not great but shes not bad shes being advertised because of her movie coming out today.
TV usually plays stuff with actors that have movies coming out.
amy shumer is a comedian for mainly females thats why you dont really find her all that funny, you are not her audience she tries to appeal to.

They are promoting their show and presumably movie, that's all. The show is on season 3 I believe? So I'd think it might be here to stay for another year or few.
This clip from the new "Why? With Hannibal Buress" seems appropriate-
"There's other shows on Comedy Central!"

I'm not offended by her humor and I don't think it should be censored. My point is that there's this uprising sentiment that women don't want to be objectified for there bodies. Call it gender equality, feminism whatever. I just think schumer promotes the idea that women should be looked at as a body. I've heard many women complain about this too. It doesn't bother me but to me it obvious that it's against the grain in terms of progressing social consciousness.

So, because some women are ashamed of their bodies, she should be too?

women are free to feel how they want which means one minute they can feel objectified the next they can want nothing but to be objectified.

I don't see what shame has to do with it. Her humor is mindless to me. I think shes popular because she's a woman who talks about sex, not because she has any talent

Fair enough, I kinda disagree but I guess it's different strokes for different folks 
I just don't think she's promoting anything besides herself and her comedy, I could see why you think that but at the same time I think you and those people are just attaching that stigma to her 
Comedians say things that even they disagree with solely because it's funnier then what they believe

I'm sure she knows it's a cheap trick. She's popular because sex sells. I know some women are offended because they don't follow the flock and it obvious to them. Maybe, I'm wrong but that's what I take from it.

Amy schumer is definitely not somebody I'd pay to watch -her humor is extremely dry - and she never nailed a joke IMO . She appeals to the teenage audience who finds humor in sex , drama , and bullshit with no concrete basis.
I've seen her show a few times and she just makes sex jokes WHICH SEX JOKES AREN'T FUNNY , THEY'RE FUCKING STUPID IMO , especially when they spew from Amy's mouth. Some people can pull of lame jokes and make people laugh without em questioning why they're laughing - and Amy Schumer is one of those people.
When I watched Amy's show I felt like I'm wasting time. I'd rather watch Animal planet , suprisingly human

Well said.
Anyone been getting annoyed at all the repetitive Hannabal Buress comercials? The other day I swear it came on like 50-100 times over a couple hours...
I like his comedy but it makes e not want to watch his show, especially with him trash talking olives I love olives, don't know what hes talking about.

She has quite a bit of sex jokes, but hardly all from what I've seen. I don't think talking about her weight or appearance counts as sex stuff, based on if a guy were to say the same thing.
Pretty sure they do that with all new shows ML420.

I dont care for her type of humor either. Not funny at all just kind of stupid and annoying. I dont care for key an peele or tosh either. The humor is like they are trying too hard and never happen to nail the joke its like a 15 year old kid saying thats what she said after everything you say.

I don't find her funny either. Her schtick gets very old very fast.We get it, you're a wild and crazy girl getting acclimated to being in her 30's, who's sex life is so bonkers that you have to talk about it constantly, like some weird insecure dude trying to convince his bros that he has game.

Amy Schumer's stand up AND show is like a 5.5 out of ten for me. Sometimes a 6/10. Sometimes shes funny, sometimes she hits the nail on the head, and sometimes she misses.
Aziz's last stand up fuckin' blew--Amy Schumer has had better stand up than Aziz'S last special. The last 25 minutes of Aziz's standup was some bullshit liberal rant.

I don't find Aziz funny, either. He kind of comes off like a douche, to me.

Never took enough interest in him to see him. Didn't seem like I'd like it.
Louis CK, mitch hedberg, George Carlin, my friend had an extra ticket to see Brian Posehn and I had never seen or even heard of him before and I really enjoyed his show.
Uhhh, idk, I don't watch a whole lot of standup, I prefer sketch shows like Key&Peele(SNL is too hard to get through without cringing so no), and dark comedic television and films.

Her bits are at a grade school level. I never found her funny. I saw her recently and she's even more pudgy than when I saw her last. She's 34, and it's just not cute anymore.

I guess back in the day she wasn't half bad.

But times have changed, and the cute pudge gets cheesy. I'll bet her ass look like a wet sack of golf balls.

I think IRL she's probably a very nice person, from what I've read. If she weren't a celebrity with a show on comedy central and currently in the limelight, but like an ordinary person, I get the impression she would be really fun to converse with and have an above average sense of humor.
I've never seen her show, but her standup leaves me hanging in the laugh dept. And I think some really funny celebrities are really bad at standup(looking at you, jerry seinfeld).

I've saw many people in this thread say that, can someone please explain to me the correlation between someone's looks and ability to be funny. Is it because she's a woman everyone feels the need to comment on her appearance? Its about whether she is funny yet a lot of people are just commenting on her looks.

I watched a 5 minute youtube video of her standup, and I got nothing out of it. If she weren't a pretty girl talking about sex, I would have quit pretending to listen to the jokes. She's lucky she's sexy looking because she only goes for the easy jokes that get chuckles from couch potatoes who are too tired to think. Her jokes have about as much thought put into them as those lame racist jokes bad comedians like mencia like to tell.

wow, you're right. It's just the nature of it all, just like all men have inherently rapey instincts that they must constantly suppress. It's just in their nature.
that aside,
One of the wittiest, sharpest writers in the industry is widely regarded to be Tina Fey.
Kate Mckinnon, Kristen Wiig, Chelsea Peretti, the ladies of Garfunkel and Oates, IMO Kaitlin Olsen of Always Sunny is easily one of the funniest actors on tv in general right now, Kristin Schall, June Raphael, Joan Rivers. They might not all do standup, a lot of them do, but if they don't then they're widely regarded as some of the best comedic actors in the business.

Don't forget a lot of comedic actors generally start out doing stand up, and have to make a name for themselves before people on tv give them a chance, some give up stand up and stick with tv and others stick with both.
A lot of people found them funny for them to get where they are, to paint with such a wide brush and say women can't be funny just because you didnt laugh is honestly quite retarded.

Looking pretty gives you an easy advantage on TV. Talking about sex is the next easy bump. She does both of those things, and doesn't have much else to offer, so she doesn't need to be very funny or present much past that. She makes jokes with a sort of feminist perspective, but she embraces lots of sexist stereotypes with her jokes and general presentation. The comments you quoted are the kind that she attracts, and she seems to do nothing to bring them into the spot light so they can be laughed at like they should be. She's a weak comedian.

louis ck's running theme (or one of them) is pointing out his flaws, including his body, he turns a lack of celebrity sex appeal around into a joke and it's very successful.
Amy Shumar, who I don't think is ugly for the record - I think if most guys saw her walking down the street, they'd agree she's probably cute or at least not unattractive or ugly. Because she's a celebrity people nitpick, it's easy to dehumanize and objectify celebrities and we hold them to superhuman standards. I think that because she talks about sex so much and is very obviously confident about her ability to find sexual partners, it brings her under even more scrutiny than she'd normally have. Quote:

Yup. I've also noticed that standup is kind of like sports in the sense that if you watch it on tv(at least for me) it's less likely to really enthuse you compared to watching it in person. In person it's fun, everyone laughing around you is infectious and there's just a different sort of expectation that we hold when we see things on camera compared to real life - you get kind of desensitized.
That being said you're right, people are lining up to see Amy Shumar even if you or I don't like her. Standup is incredibly hard to break into and make a living doing, so I give her and anyone else who accomplishes that mad props.

It's only really in comedy that plainer-looking women get airtime, see SNL etc.
For whoever thinks this Amy Schumer is really funny, can we see some of her primo material? All I've really seen is that movie trailer and that other clip someone posted right after, and IMO both of those were pretty weak.

She isn't the best, but she is funny, I'll look around for some clips I like of her and post them soon, but she definitely has potential, just like Louis, Joan Rivers, George Carlin. They all started out doing WHATEVER would make people laugh, they didn't care if it was just shock value, or anything, they just did what they knew would work. Can I say that's what she is doing...no because I don't know her, but she is only 34 and made a big name for herself, she has a lot of potential to work on her act and become one of the best.
I mean louis was on tv redoing the same shit routine he used for 15 years, just because he knew that it would work, then switched it up to shock value, and worked his way up to what he is now. It's an art form and they have room to grow, and she definitely has potential.

This to a T, at an actual comedy show, the atmosphere, the crowd, is a totally different experience then watching it on tv, there's even a sort of mob mentality that allows you to get into the comedy more because you feel like you're almost participating. I won't judge comedians I didn't like if I've only watched them on tv unless they make me laugh really hard. The ones I don't like I'll still see in person if they come around because it's 100% different and even then if you don't like it, there is most likely going to be other comedians that night too.
Apart from that, Amy does almost exactly what Louie does, "look at how ridiculous me and my life is and especially my appearance and laugh at it" but somehow it's different when she does it. The amount of crude grotesque sex material I've seen louie do in person and in his specials and have yet to see anyone claim he sucks or he's cheap or weak comedy because he chooses to play off it like Amy does.

For some reason a lot of the clips got taken down, it's only like full shows but these were some from one of her specials I thought were really funny. I can't stand when they show the audience after a joke for some reason.

Idk what it is most female comedians miss the mark by a long shot. Idk what it is it seems like its them being really sexual or if its not that its jus them complaining the whole time about the stupidest crap. Off the top I cant even think of a single female comedian that ive heard lay down a soild set start to finish. Itd be truly awesome if we had a women that could stand among the comedic greats but ive never seen on come close
