Hope he's coming to Edinburgh this year!
Pure Genius! intelligent, subtle, amazingly brilliant actress and stand up, sexy and cute! I like her!
If you dont get this humour you should seek therapy , honestly!
She is too uncomfortable to watch and I just don't think she's funny. She never makes me laugh and I don't think she gets a point across. I really think a lot of people don't get it, personally I don't want to get it. Nervous laughter isn't good. The audience are not sure a lot of the time. At the Amnesty Ball she is playing to an audience that probably have a better understanding but I can just imagine this kind of material going out to a much wider audience, many will be laughing for completely the wrong reasons.

Really good, entertaining and thought provoking.
It was giraffes and tigers this year.
Yes I agree mrdamian. I had an open mind when it came to all things Russell Brand but he almost won me over. I need to see a little more though to me utterly convinced.
Eddie at his best. I've been a far since his early days. I just have to mention the bee sketch to have my wife in tears! Insane yet brillient.
Oh Hartley, you are too harsh. I think the nervous jitteriness of the timing IS the humour here
her timing is not good, audience laugh nervously.
she's american trying to do clever humour.
maybe it is , maybe you have to be american middle class to understand it.
