I still don’t understand the appeal of british humor, sorry.

It's really weird watching old episodes and seeing him casually bring up light childhood anecdotes about his dad.

I'll never understand the appeal of Stephen Fry at least

I only liked QI in the first season or two when the format (surprise, the obvious answer is in fact NOT correct) caught people off guard. It quickly became a parody of itself.

It will eventually come out that this cunt molested little boys. I guarantee it.

That's a big part of it.

The new host is awful.
She's a lesbian and by god, she lets you know it.

Man, British panel shows are weird now. It's just people who were famous and with it 30 years ago who are now incredibly old, and some Pakistani sitting there making cracks about white people every second line, as is mandated.
It's eerie. Haunted television. It's an impression of a thing people remember, but it sure is not that thing.

he was in some good television in the 80's, and then coasted by being a "national treasure" and a quirky gay uncle.

>The limerick, which Fry recited as the last item of the comedy quiz show, went:
>"There was a young chaplain from King's
>Who talked about God and such things;
>But his real desire
>Was a boy in the choir
>With a bottom like jelly on springs."
now are you telling me you don't find that joke relatable at all? You don't think it's funny to make a little rhyme out of what we all feel but can't talk about?

>>219343568
They have this thing in England called a "national treasure". It's a uniquely English phenomenon where, if there's a celebrity whose popularity makes no sense, and who actually makes you kind of uncomfortable, like you feel suspicious about them, you pretend that you like them too so that you don't come across as a spoilsport. And you don't want to get cornered on what you like about them so you just act like it's some overwhelming ineffable thing and call them a "national treasure". But everyone is doing the pretending while thinking that everyone else actually likes the person. Of course there are people like who use the redd site who get their internal thoughts directly from reading other people's statements with no reflection, so they do genuinely like the national treasure people, insofar as a non-mind can genuinely hold any belief

It's not that hard. People genuinely liked Stephen Fry because he was really good in Blackadder, and Hugh and Laurie, and he's been getting by on that for decades.
He just shows up and people go "look it's Stephen Fry", and they're satisfied.

Americans have this too. You have Shatner and Danny Devito. All of those actors who were in the Godfather and haven't done anything good in forever.

It's weird how it's basically the same people as 30 years ago, making the same jokes. Which of Baudrillard's 4 phases of the image is this?
