DG saith: Only someone with no sense of humour finds Smack the Pony funny. I would like to say HA logical fallacy except this basically is what I feel about Frank Zappa.

And then there's TOM SHARPE!!

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

HA! You can't win.

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Smack the Pony = funnier than Frank Zappa and Tom Sharpe put together. What an awful concept btw.

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ah, but DG has been proven to be untrustworthy on matters of comedy by his repeated Ant and Dec related heresies.

RickyT, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

yes i'm not interested in his actual opinion actually, it's the formula

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

that made sense: i'm turning into ronan

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ant'n'Dec heresy = totally trustworthy. And sane.

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

DG, you have the making of a fine contrarian op columnist. (sorry, for thread crossage)

Alan Trewartha, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

he would be dropped and fatnick wd reign

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

This appears to be Mark S' anti-DG day!

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

how is that anti-you DG? if anything it is anti-fatnick

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm feeling paranoid today.

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

DG has invoked Article 5 of the ILE treaty in which an attack on one Greenfield is to be considered on all.

BUNDLE!!!!!!

For me, one of the things that elevates STP above the rest of the sketch show pack are their parodies of various musical genres. For most sketch shows, this is usually the unfunny and cringeworthy section, but theirs are so well observed it leads me to suspect that at least one of them used to work in the industry.

OK i asked this question all squibbly:

rephrase: "Only someone with no sense of humour finds [xx] funny" => what do we mean when we say this?

mark s, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would never say that Mark.

Mark, whenever someone says something like that, they are throwing down the gauntlet. Such a statement is defying you to take up said gauntlet and prove your detractor wrong, or skulk off into the undergrowth with your tail between your legs like a dejected lemur.

Trevor, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

HA = Health Authority? Why does everything have to remind me of work? Yeah, Smack the Pony is rubbish.

jel, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Okay, so you're talking about a show and not some strange kids' game. I hope.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 15 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"i'm turning into ronan"

Explain. I too am paranoid.
