Skyfall October 24, 2015 Author Share October 24, 2015 (edited) Anyone else feel like the sudden addition of more political topics is because CC wants Hardwick to get some experience/cred there in case they have to make any moves in the next year or so? @Midnight is easier to find a replacement for (Funches, Lennon, Tompkins, Wheaton, etc) than say The Daily Show where you need someone who is more known for doing political humor/satire.

Kromm November 21, 2015 Share November 21, 2015 (edited) Chris totally let Rogen stay FTW because he's famous. Yeah. I mean I'd say I was disappointed, but the bar is set pretty low for Hardwick overall, so there's really very little justification to claim I expected better. Thursday was an odd show, felt like Chris and Ron were having their own show with the 2 others just watching them. Haven't seen this episode yet, but Funches was also on Conan the same day and really killed, so he was definitely "on" that day (not like he isn't usually by default). And he did two live Undatable broadcasts the next day too. Busy week for Ronald. Dear Show, Please never book Chris Delia and Whitney Cummings for the same panel again. Just book them a room at the No Tell Motel and spare the rest of us. Thanks. That grouping would be the only reason I would not watch a Funches ep. That's the second d'Elia episode in a row where I enjoyed him. I may be a bad person, but "Two in the pink...one in the head. POW!" made me laugh. I've slightly come around on d'Elia when Cummings is not around. He's still terrible, but he's only around 85% as terrible. Undatable for example, seems to work okay despite him, because they play him as a buffoon, and to his credit he goes along with that. When he's on a set with Whitney Cummings though, the joint smuggery is just too damn much. You'd almost HAVE to have someone as likable as Ron Funches there to take the edge off, but of course the danger there is that if it backfires people might resent Funches for even being involved.
