I was going to say, "
He is so adorable, I could just BURST!"

He is pretty loopy, too. [image]

I just saw an advert for this on my tv:

[size=100:fmjpnxp6]Brand new and utterly exclusive, Comedy Exchange is a one-off special that gets top British stand-up and broadcaster Phill Jupitus to swap places with Flight Of The Conchords star and stand-up Eugene Mirman for a comedic and cultural experiment.

Despite speaking the same language there’s still many a cultural difference that exists between Great Britain and America. Not least in comedy. When was the last time you laughed at a gag about Mickey Mantle (who?) or Altoids (you can get a cream for that). Conversely, your typical American would probably stand in silence when presented with a quip about chavs or the WI.

Here’s the deal: Phill spends a week in NYC, where they’re never short of an opinion or two, to find if his act can cut the mustard, and Eugene travels to our very own London town to do the same. At the end of their week – where they will have swapped careers, friends and colleagues – they are tasked with presenting their new, finely honed stand-up routines to their new crowds.

Daunting or what?!

Comedy Exchange is next on at 10:00 pm on Friday, 19th March on Dave.

You can watch the trailer here on the [url=Dave homepage][/url]. British flighties can also watch the show on Dave!
I think it looks really interesting <img src=

It's like swapping wives or students exchange but I like it ;<br />D

. I like anything what has to do with cultural exchange, including humour. This is going to be great, I think.

Go, Eugene! [image]

Yeah, it's just like that. xD

This is tomorrow all those who have access to Dave! (The TV channel, not the other Dave we know, [size=75:0xo6imek]if only!)

I'm blatantly going to forget, I always do when it comes to TV. : Smile

This sounds great. I wish I could see it.

It starts in an hour. Smile

A few snippets that made me smile:

Eugene's t-shirt slogan: Britain - emotionally reserved since 400BC. [image]

Kristen's English accent [image]

[nervous Eugene] You guys are charmingly polite [/nervous] [image]

The whole culture differences with humour... [image]

I think my favorite part was when they're all sitting there reading the newspapers and Eugene lets out a huge laugh when he reads "
Ray is sick of training to be a ninja"

Aw man, that part got horribly uncomfortable.
I'd have liked it if they had spoken to a few of the audience members after. I just found it strange that they really didn't like it. :-/

Eugene's observation about how there are topics in our newspapers constantly yet we don't really talk about them is true. I never really realised that before.
