This is truly Americana at its finest. And I'm not joking, I really would LOVE to see this dude at least run for president. If he won that would be even awesomer!
Guns for everyone! - Oni

Basil is exactly how many of us see the U.S. all the time. I'll accept the insults from our UK posters but NEVER from a Canadian!

If he wins, he will be a great source of material for comedians.
Right off the bat, the Bush Jr. comparisons would be hilarious.
Basil Marceaux and Sarah Palin as a presidential ticket. That would be a hoot. Wasn't there a movie like that... Dumb and Dumber? - Oni

Aw, what a shame, ole Basil was defeated, now you comedians are going to have to work and scrape for a living just like the rest of us! Your sarcasm is noted, but not appreciated.
You had George Bush for 8 years, and just as you thought the well was going dry Sarah Palin comes along and showers you comedians with material. And you want Basil, too? Sheesh! Aw man, it was like seeing a unicorn, but only for a split second... Sure we were being greedy, but a gem like him only happens once every...well, any time a republican gets elected. I pray to all that is holy that Obama continues his shit parade, then bring on the right-wing nutjob! I have my notepad at the ready*.
On a related note, I bet all you liberals were surprised that Republicans were so astute as to give ole Basil only 0.5% of the vote. Bet you thought he was a shoo-in, huh! Well, it did disprove my theory that any retarded person, that is pro-gun and republican, would get elected in Tennessee. But, in my defense, I'm pretty sure whoever gets elected in Tennessee isn't gonna be that far off from Basil. - Oni
*I'm one of the few comics that still writes in a notepad, most everyone else has some form of electronical device to speak into and a laptop to store material. I have 5 notepads. lol Edited by onifre, : No reason given.

Now I know you're lying. I saw the movie Funny People, so I know for a fact that's not true. Ha! Quite right, they did have that in Funny People. But, Apatow and Sandler were both comics before laptops were popular - I think they wrote notepads in based on their experiences. These days the bar at a comedy club looks like a coffee shop with all the laptops. Everyone has their set list on their iPhone or Blackberry - (or whatever new phone is out this week). I'm old school! - Oni

Keep posting your stuff. What about this routine makes you call it, "Not your best work." I usually call evrything I do not my best work. I think it has something to do with self-loathing, lol.
In my own opinion what weakened it most was that there were 5 or 6 instances where the comedian persona broke down for a mere second or two at most to reveal the real person. Seems contradictory, I know, since much of your material is your own life. This was the audition, a few years back, for the Montreal Just For Laughs festival, and I was nervous. Stomach pain kinda nervous. But it was their first time seeing me perfom and I didn't want to shit the bed, which in my opinion I sorta did. I made up for it years tio come by doing a lot better. It takes 3 shots before you get into Montreal, they need to see you 3 times. This year, at the end of the year around Dec., will be my third time.
Some of the stuff I see on the Comedy channel looks like someone on stage saying gross, disgusting or profane stuff and the crowd erupts into laughter. I don't get it. I'm no prude, you might notice this site has no Forum Guidelines against profanity, but there's nothing inherently funny about being gross, disgusting or profane. If that were the case then some of my friends would be on Leno every night. So I look at these comedians getting a laugh this way and conclude that there's something I'm just not getting. I agree, I hate some of the comedy seen on TV today. Remember though, what you are currently seeing on the Late Shows and Comedy Central, for the most part, is what was left over form the late 80's realy 90's comedy boom. The biggest boom in comedy. In the next 10-15 years, all sitcoms, Late Shows, hour HBO/Showtime performances will be from the comics of my generation. We, I feel, bring a more high-brow tone to our humor. - Oni
