No, not his show. That was good too but his act is better, cause he's funnier than the other actors. Look on p2p and you find lots of old Cosby material.

Yeah Seinfeld is my hero, I don't know how he does it. Also on the point of not needing to be offensive to be funny, he rarely does anything offensive. And in the show I thought at times he was a mediocre actor but the material rocks!

Oh, I've seen Cosby's stuff outside the show and it was great

I mentioned the show because just yesterday there was some bloopers show on, and he's so much funnier than the lines he gets. There was a loud noise in the background during filming, and when Bill realised the footage was never going to be used, he decided to have some fun. So he starts saying all this stuff to the poor kid who doesn't know what's going on.. ahhh u had to see it

Since we have a couple of Italians in here I'm gonna ask and see if you can solve a mystery ...

When the world was created and nations were made (rough description never mind) and they all waited in line for certain qualities did Italians by any chance wait around the corner when the Creater was bringing out the equally big baggs of testosterone, tripped him, grabbed everything and run as fast as they could? Or is there something in the water on the peninsula?

ahahaahaha

Billy Connelly beats any other stand up comedian

Seinfeld is the best, also as an actor. He just acted so funny, I don't know how to describe it. He was just hilarious.

I got the same question from a Jewish friend recently and my answer was the following:

"I come from a nation that excels and has excelled since the beginning of the time in the arts; from Nicholas Cage to Marcello Mastroianni..Sophia Loren to Monica Bellucci to Martin Scorsese to Federico Fellini....from Donatello to Michaelangelo to Da Vinci..Verdi to Caruso..Sinatra to Bocelli. Athletes from Roberto Baggio to Gianni Rivera to Joe DiMaggio to Yogi Berra. The Enrico Fermi's to the inventor of the telephone Meucci to Gaileleo to Columbus. Rudolph Guiliani to Emperor Augustus.

Bottom line: The ones with bigger "guns" tend to be the most confident in life.

If you folks liked Seinfeld (I know you do Martin), you really ought to watch Curb Your Enthusiam, an HBO show starring Larry David (Seinfelds creator). It is very Seinfeld-esque at times and can be even more funny. Larry plays a character like George (George was actually based on him) and it's just hilarious. It gets really good reviews here in the US, its a shame more people can't see it.

That's a really poor excuse. Just Spain, for example, can offer you all that yet they have more normal people. But anyway, even if they are like that, do they have to bother other people?

I saw a couple of episodes from that. You should mention it's improvised, no script. And it sucked. Larry David can't act.

Sorry but I fail to see how we are NOT NORMAL. Care to clarify this label we suddendly have??

 

[River]

Whats normal though? I sure as hell didnt find spanish people normal when i was there. Italians are arrogant but overall they arent so bad

P.S. No Spainish immigrants have been (as studied) far less successful and made less impacts than Italians overseas.

yoru right...some people would even call that statement (not normal) generalizing and stereotyping.

 

[River]

That isnt generalising. In my opinion Italians are more arrogant that what im used to. Its not a big deal. And not like im basing it on one person.

I wasn't talking about you.

 

[nina]

You should look at the whole phrase ... more normal people ... MORE.
I'm not stereotyping, God knows I tried to convince other people too look beyond the "they are just a bunch of primadonas and womanizers" because I learned and experienced better, but lately (since we stepped in EU and they all of a suddon discoverd their neighbours) I'm getting nowhere with my points.

 

[IncuboRossonero]

Sorry Nina but when I saw the ancedote about Italians waiting in line (your joke) I had no choice to see BUT as a general statement towards all Italians.
Its unfortunate you met or encountered too many loud, obnoxious Italians in your trips to Italy..its even more unfortunate you encountered testerone pumping macho hot blooded guys. AND its most unfortunate that people like me are tainting your image of Italians...because the last three groups are really not representative of the nation. Most Italians are not loud, Milanista stadium chanting arrogant loud mouths who love to bash the opposition.
