Pop Cultured with Elvira Kurt

I was hoping that this show would be something funny…it wasn’t. Individually the comedians on the show are excellent at standup, put them behind a desk and have them read from a script…horrendous.
Telling jokes from a cue card requires something special, it requires snappy comments. When you sit behind a desk you can’t tell jokes with punch lines unless the punch line is a graphic or you have a really silly way of expressing the punch line (like Letterman and Leno). Your humour has to be slightly sophisticated and high class when you sit behind a desk as the audience is used to suits in that place (Letterman, Leno, Kimmel, Stewart). You can’t sit there in jeans pretending to be an outrageous character when you’re obviously not.

I’m sorry, this show could’ve been a lot better and will probably get a lot better as they get feedback but right now I’m just not feeling it.
