Reminds me of a Yoko Ono exhibition I attended (that means "went to" darcy).

Jesus wept. You appear upset that I pointed out (without a childish ad hominem) that your assumption last night was incorrect. Patronising me like the above isn't very pleasant is it?

By the way, "attended" doesn't mean "went to". The difference is a subtle one, but I expect you felt I might not appreciate that level of subtlety. I understand you were only trying to help.

EDIT: do feel free to take your original comment back anytime.

Did somebody say there is no such thing as bad art ?

Hello!

There IS no way to define good art or bad art.
But you're more than welcome to have a go if you'd like. 🙂

I really find Miranda funny, also Last of the summer wine and Dinner ladies, so flame me now I don't care.
These comedies imo are all well written and will stand the test of time.

I don't find it funny at all - my 10 and 8 year old daughters love it and I watch it with them and its nice to spend half an hour with them enjoying the fact their happy and enjoying their programme.

Watching it last night my eldest said "I love Miranda-she's a legend" trying and failing to be funny I said "what like the medusa you mean?" Of course I was forgetting school is rubbish and classical mythology doesn't feature highly on facebox so she had no idea what I meant.
Her reply "well Ive never heard of Medusa so she's no legend" was funnier than Miranda TBH.

I find the sheer [i]anger[/i] Miranda obviously provokes in some people absolutely hilarious. 😆

Been subjected to a few episodes of this in the past when round friends houses. To say she's not funny is a gross understatement! Painfully unfunny is more like it, I would honestly rather pull my teeth out with pliers than watch her!

You, my friend, need to either find new 'friends' who share your tastes in comedy, or get laid a bit more or something. Because you're just a wee bit too worked up over such a trivial matter. It's just a tv programme. Nobody is forcing you to watch it, are they? And if they are, then you need to address the issue of others having such control over certain aspects of your life.

A poster girl for the legions of well-connected, mediocre toffs leeching a living out of our state-funded broadcaster. She's as funny as a fire in a paediatric unit and an abhorrently physically repellent stank-monster into the bargain. The BBC's apparent mission to transform her into some kind of National Treasure makes me want to redirect my licence fee to a hitman who specialises in bumping off ungainly comediennes who have somehow got it into their heads that they can "do" slapstick.

See above. Or do you fancy yourself as a sort of Tesco Value* version of Charlie Brooker?

*A poor, somewhat disappointing substitute which leaves you realising you should just have spent the little bit extra in the first place.

That said it is a shame that my licence fee is wasted on this bilge

Personally, I think it's a shame such energy is wasted on getting angry about a tv programme, when there's far worse going on in our world.

If you are a lacking in self confidence, dyspraxic, absent minded and a bit of a needy person you might find her funny.

If you're arrogant, conceited, lacking in self-awareness and starved of attention, you might find slagging people who have tastes which differ to yours, makes you feel a bit better about yourself.

Some people just don't have a sense of humour, I'm over it. I for one have two tickets to the live show at the O2... such fun!

She was great on the eric morecambe doc too.

How much did you spend in the first place? If you're not happy, ask customer service for a refund on your way out of the forum.

If I'm a Tesco Value Charlie Brooker (I wish!), Miranda Hart is a LiDL Basics Tamsin Greig/Sasha Baron Cohen/any comic actor with a modicum of talent whose socially-awkward-but-still-funny schtick she has made such a bollix of ripping off.

I'd say "Tesco Value Charlie Brooker" was a massive compliment.

I love human nature, it's wonderful to see what should be a fairly straight forward, folk have different opinions, shake hands and agree to differ turn into personal insults. Tribalism at it's best, find the differentiator and build it up to battle lines. 😀

and folk think I have a bleak outlook on life? when humanity in all its stupid glory is here to see. If we can be this obnoxious over a tv show it's no wonder we can spill blood over the colour of a persons skin, religion or different football tribes.

Quite liked some of the old Borat TV series. but The Dictator is one of the worst films I've ever seen. Switched off after half an hour or so.

Not seen Miranda but it doesn't sound like it's worth torrenting (no terrestrial tele at the moment).

You mean people on an Internet cycling forum take others views on whimsical ephemeral television programs broadcast as unchallenging light entertainment for the masses as something equivalent to racial hatred and tribalism?

Wow this Internet lark is serious bizness 😯
