So funny

Just about everything that comes out of his mouth makes me laugh. I'm watching It Crowd and his delivery is comedy gold. The show is hilarious but it gets even funnier once Douglas Reynholm steps in.

IT Crowd, Snuff Box, Garth Marenghi's Dark Place, Toast of London. One of the best comedians we have!

I've never seen Snuff Box but I'd really love to. I've seen a few episodes of Toast of London and it was funny. Garth Marenghi's Dark Place was awesome.

It's really hard to find some of his shows. But he definetely is one of the funniest comedians and massively underrated. Or maybe he just appeals to niche audience.

His baritone delivery is the best. Just about anything he says with that voice makes me laugh.

The second I heard this Advil commercial I knew it was him.

His turn as a lusty vampire in What we do in the Shadows is not to be missed. He absolutely chews the scenery in every scene.

I love that show! He is great in it.

He's great in everything, when I hear a voiceover by Matt Berry in one of his many adverts I smile too!

Yeah, I first saw him in IT Crowd years ago and became kinda obsessed with him, I just tried to see everything he had done. Lol.

This guy is one of the funniest people I have ever seen. It's like he doesn't even have to try (although I'm sure he puts a lot of work into it). As soon as he opens his mouth, I'm laughing.

"As soon as he opens his mouth, I'm laughing."

Same for me!

I was watching IT Crowd today and there's an episode where he pretends to be a lawyer and he says to the witness "sing you canary!"

It was just a small throwaway line, but the way he said had me cracking up so much that I had to rewind the scene a few times.

I remember that scene and reading that line in his voice immediately made me laugh. His voice has this hysterical up-and-down quality that I've never heard in any other comedian.

I can hear him saying that! 😂

Have you heard him on Adam Buxton’s podcasts?
It’s interesting to hear about him.

He is also an accomplished musician and regularly gigs with a band.

I love IT Crowd, but I also love Toast Of London...

"Yes, I can hear you Clem Fandango".

[–] OratiaGlake (1234) 3 years ago

Yes he is, he speaks about it on the podcast....until then I didn’t know how much he has done!
I’d love to hear some of his albums.....I have heard his theme music obviously on his shows etc.
