Bo Selecta Vol 3

[Guest Tommy]

Has anyone formed an opinion of the new series yet? I loved the first too, the comedy was well up my street. But I cant help thinking the new series just hasnt been any good. The Michael Jackass bits are good, wel theyre always going to be, but I dont feel theyre long enough. And Craig David has just lost something. He isnt funny at all.

Seems like the writers are struggling. What do others think?

Bo Selecta was only half funny in the first series. The second one was even less funny, and the new series is 1/10 as funny as the first. It's just too vulgar now.

This season is very poor, the first two I enjoyed but he has just become tedious now and I can barely watch Avid's part of the show. From screaming like a girl when the 'celebrity' comes on stage to taking the piss of Eurotrash with the 'foreign' singer, it has just gone to the dogs!

I only enjoy the Michael Jackson/Porridge skits and "Craig David tries to break America (Again)," other than that it's shit...

It's kinda crap now, I liked the first series but it's gotten boring fast.

[J-Rod]

Michael Jackson doing Porridge is the funniest bit. Me and Ronnay Barkey!!

Avid has become a celebrity now in his rights. In the first series, nobody hardly heard of him.

I think Craig David is the funniest bit, but its not on for long enough. Avid's is quite funny, but not great. This series hasn't been as good as the others, but I always get a good few laughs out of it.

Needs to be less vulgarity, more humour.

Their jokes about sex are just not funny, its almost as if the writers think they can get Avid to say "TITS" and the crowd will piss themselves. Also, get rid of the fucking teddy. He gets a guest on, eventually gets an errection and has to think of Christina Hamilton to get rid of it. Yes, we know what happens every time now, its not funny anymore.

More Michael Jackson/ass, more stupid humour such as Craig David (In the last series when they showed footage of where he opened up the real Craig David gig had me in stitches) and just general parodies of celebrities without the vulgarity. That would make me watch it again.

I love it actually, I like the way it didn't stay the same as previous series' with Avid becoming TV presenter, Bear telling stories, rather than the same old situations. The humour isn't quite as good, but what do you expect, all shows are pretty much the same of a series, it's just a matter of finding a different way to tell the joke.

[Darloboy]

I think it's pretty funny, not as good as the first series but better than the second IMO.

I like The Bear's new segment, but I'm sure I'm biased because of Bob Mortimer being on it a couple of weeks back.

The Odd Couple and Doing Porridge > *

Ronnay Barkay and Mel B are the funniest part of the show.

Although Cocknose has to go.

[Colly]

I agree with the Bob Mortimer statement, I thought that was class, but otherwise the Bear is awful. The big question is, wheres David Blaine? And drop the Mel B bit, its run its course.

[Jook]

It's shit. It's vulgar, and embarressing to watch.

[J-Rod]

That Cocknose shit is complete crap, so is the Odd Couple. Craig David is sometimes alright but he's not as funny as he was last series.
