Tonight's episode of "Last Comic Standing" included some of the funniest sets so far... and the biggest train wreck of its history. We'll start with the good and tell you who moved on to the finals next week when America gets to vote.
Moving on:
James Adomian
Roy Wood Jr.
Laurie Kilmartin
Tommy Johnagin
Maronzio Vance
All five comedians had hilarious sets tonight and are genuinely funny people. I agree with the choices. These five will join the five finalists from last week to compete for America's votes with a cash prize of $250,000 going to the winner. I think it's going to be a close race.
Now for the not-so-funny. Guy Torry took the Last Comic Standing stage as the angry comedian. You really need to be as good as George Carlin to take that route to funny. Guy Torry is no George Carlin. His biggest punchline seemed to be "Google It!" The audience gave a trickle of uncomfortable laughter throughout the set that seemed to last ten minutes instead of 90 seconds.
When it finally came time for the judges comments they were nearly at a loss for words... and would have been better off not finding any. Unfortunately they attempted a critique to which Torry defended his material and things became even more uncomfortable. Thankfully Craig Robinson finally stepped in and put an end to all of our misery. I felt bad for whomever was to follow.
