Comedy, South Asian style

[sunny123]

If you guys got 45minutes to kill, then you will enjoy this standup comedian's showcase on Comedy Now. His name is Russel Peters (he's South Asian), and he's from my city!! He is the first South Asian comedian in North America, and is hilarious.

You know, he did a set on one of the Canadian channels, and he bombed because he redid his Comedy Now special. It was pretty bad because he was trying to make his material seem different, but it wasn't coming out that way. He wasn't getting the same amount of laughs as he did on the special. I watched an interview of him, and he told the reporter clearly, that if you saw him one time, not to come back for a good four-five months in order to hear some new material. He said he wasn't a genius for not being able to come up with new material for every set.

At least he was being honest, I think that's cool. It's not funny, but it's cool.
Yeah his Comedy Now stuff was absolutely awesome. I could never come up with **** like that. haha It's weird how most comedians can be SO hilarious, yet when they're away from the set or whatever, they're really serious and/or quiet. I've just noticed that with a lot of comedians.

 

[sunny123]

^ How many comedians do you know??

 

[Premedtomed]

Comedy comes from idiosyncracies of life.
South Asian lifestyle is very simple and the community is very successful,
he needs to focus on South Asian issues more rather than going after all the communities.

Let us see, arranged marriage, Indian movies / commercial music (if he cares or more importantly second gen. Indian Americans/Canadians care)

How about politics and all drama Indian families here are known for

FOBs (like me, maybe I have been here for too long now)

 

[hopeful05]

i know... exactly when does one stop being an FOB?
is there a timeline that desis follow?

i'd like to know my status... i'm not an ABCD... not an FOB either....
I want an acronym label tooo

Ok, how about an I.D. aka "Integrated Desi"?

It's soo casual. You could be like "Yeah, I'm an ID, so STEP!!"

 

[saffronrain]

In accordance with the above- that. is. awesome.

 

[hopeful05]

Yeah...i missed reading that earlier...
that's a good one....
