Let NBC know if you want the show renewed like I am. I'm hoping if they hear enough support for it, they'll bring it back. Join me!

Mary S. would like Last Comic Standing renewed for 7th season.]]> Sun, 07 Jun 2009 12:09:14 -0700 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=824833 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=817919 tvwatchonline.tripod.com/lastcomicstanding.html (do not include the www. part)

*It was recently announced (http://thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=7993) (http://thecomicscomic.typepad.com/thecomicscomic/2009/03/the-end-for-nbcs-last-comic-standing.html) that NBC has cancelled the NBC summer show Last Comic Standing, which means that season 6 (2008) was the final season. Now that the show is over, I want to hear your thoughts. Send me an e-mail with your favorite moments, favorite winner, favorite comic, favorite judge, favorite joke, etc. from the six-season run and I will post them on the Last Comic Standing page of TV Watch Online. You do not have to comment of all of these points, just the ones you want to. If you choose to remain anonymous, please say so in the e-mail otherwise your name will be posted as well.*

I looked on Google but could not find a date for the auditions. Does anyone know when they are because im eager to try out.

Heres a video of me on a late night talk show in LA:

Sorry about the quality, heres the full version of me on the show:

Do you guys think I have any potential at all? I improved this all and I know its not stand up but I have done some stand up with success. The video starts off a bit slow but picks up. So if anyone knows the audition dates let me know and im open to feedback.

Please add in stand-up clips that you think most of us would enjoy.

Ideally, the clips shouldn't be of comedians that are well known (at least in the US) (yet), and preferably the clips should be pretty short (just a few jokes).]]> Sat, 23 Aug 2008 13:55:09 -0700 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=801163 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=800911 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 09:47:08 -0700 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=800911 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=800742

See? She didn't need to "win" some rigged competition. A pro like Ellen DeGeneres knows what's good. For the record, Erin Jackson is one of the comics I feel should have made the top 12 in place of Iliza.

Ideally I would've liked to have seen Eddie Pepitone, Shazia Mirza, and Erin Jackson take the places of Iliza Shlesinger, Ron G, and Jim Tavare.

I said that the night they chose the top 12.

Erin didn't know the exact day she'd be on.... but watch for Erin on Ellen in September! ]]> Sat, 16 Aug 2008 01:19:44 -0700 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=800742 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=800687

First, she got more exposure/airtime than any other comic in the running due to her twice being in the head to head. People became familiar with her, and people tend to like what they know.

Second, people may have been more likely to vote for her because they thought she was vulnerable to elimination; someone may think, "Hey, I like both Iliza and [Insert Comic's Name Here], but [Insert Comic's Name Here] is sure to get a lot of votes, so I'll reserve my votes for Iliza.

Lastly, her gender probably did play some role in the vote. Now, I don't necessarily believe that women vote for women and men vote for men, but people do usually find others funny when they can identify with what they are saying, and gender can sometimes play a part in this. I can't say for sure, but there is a fair chance that a significant portion of females identified with Iliza and voted for her; if the guys tended to identify with/vote for guy comics, then due to the larger selection of male comics from which to choose, the male vote would be spread among them.

As for my own opinion, I thought Iliza was mostly funny; she wasn't my favorite, but I by no means hated her. Perhaps as a female I did identify with her comedy more than a guy might (though I do think that some of the best comedy appeals to many and not just a category of people). My personal favorite was Jeff Dye, and this wasn't just due to his looks (Marcus is probably closer to my type – and I also thought he was funny and deserved to be at top). I liked Jeff because he was a special kind of funny and because I especially identified with him. I am also a 25 year old from Seattle. There's a really good chance that I've met Applesauce Pete.

So, sorry for the long post, but I just had to say that while Iliza may not have been my top choice, I can understand and appreciate her victory. She had to go against the odds to get to the end (à la Rudy – and who doesn't love that movie?), and I always have a little place in my heart for the underdog. And if anyone else has already covered this in a comprehensive way, my apologies for duplication; I don't have time to look through all of the posts to see if I've been preempted, sorry.

-Jessica

P.S. If you like Jeff Dye, I recommend checking out his videos on YouTube; some of them aren't brilliant, but a few I found hilarious.]]> Sat, 09 Aug 2008 01:35:39 -0700 http://boards.nbc.com/nbc/index.php?showtopic=800184
