You all went to see Chris Rock…

[singlepic=44,320,240,,right]How many times do I have to tell you?  Sure, he’s funny, but he’s just a guy doing the same Richard Pryor or Eddie Murphy shit, repackaged for the 21st century.

Look, in the Independent, a clever reviewer (Nicholas Barber) wrote:

It’s a truism that British comedy is more complex, surreal and experimental than its slick American cousin, so a UK comedy audience keeps having to gauge the precise level of irony and political correctness.

I’m not asking much of you, 14,500 people with little in the way of a sense of humour, but could you at least try?

Or do I have to pay you all too?

Because obviously, not Everybody Hates Chris…
