Connections Featured in Greatest Funny Moments User reviews 4 Review. Top review. Imaginative and energetic. He discusses all manners of issues about getting a bit older and life in general.
His material is observational stuff but it is the writing that makes it much better than the same observations made by a more standard comedian; his turn of phrase and his imaginative take of things makes even the most obvious remark just that little bit funnier. Many of his lines are so out of the blue and slanted that they took me by surprise and drew a laugh out of me.
He reminded me a bit of Eddie Izzard's style and I imagine that, even if you haven't heard of Moran, if you like Izzard then you'll most likely enjoy Moran. The language and subject matter will not be to everyone's taste but it made me laugh out loud a real hatful of times and consistently amused me throughout.
More classic comedy jokes from this famous comedian. Many of these rare performances have not been seen in over 30 years. It's downright brilliant: brimming with searing observations and grumbling invective on subjects such as aging, religion, kids, relationships and the general absurdities of life. All delivered with Dylan's renowned, shambling, curmudgeonly charm.
Circle comes on the back of an ever-growing global touring schedule, with this particular performance being recorded in New York. Always sensitive to his environment, the comedian throws in several local references to gratify his strongly partisan audience. Much of the delight of an Izzard performance is watching him weave from topic to topic, often painting himself into a corner, and Circle is no exception. A little slow to get started, once he finds his stride this is a veritable masterclass in live comedy, dealing with subjects ranging from the absurd to the everyday.
Indeed, Izzard is almost a human equivalent of The Far Side cartoon series, weaving the worlds of the bizarre and the ordinary together to make fresh points: witness his show-stopping account of the Death Star canteen.
This is a must for all fans, equally so for those yet to fall under his spell. Eddie is one of only four comedians to ever play "The Garden" and the only one from England.
In Eddie's own words, the show is "about everything that has ever happened Slick, sick and definitely not for the easily offended, Jimmy offers a masterclass in comedy as he takes his dry and sardonic wit to a whole new level. The five record breaking nights saw Lee perform to over 80, people. The total ticket sales topped , which makes this the biggest ever comedy tour to date.
