I don’t normally go to comedy clubs, because most of the jokes are
about sex. (Like nothing else funny EVER happens that the comedians could use
for material.)
But last night I was suckered, because the comedy skits were being held
at a restaurant where elderly women go to meet their friends for quiche; so I thought,
“How bad can it be?”
Answer: Pretty bad.
Seriously: Now that comedy skits are all sex, all the time…Who has
an advantage in the comedy arena? There’s no more shock value to give comedians
that edge that they might have once enjoyed. What was edgy in the ’80s is now old hat.
They might have to go back to clean jokes just to stand out from the
pack.
And I can’t wait.
