ive never found him funny, he seems to think the more random things you come out with the funnier it is. its like listening to 14 yr olds.

his band florence and the machine are crap as well.

concur fully, sooo much better than most mindless drivle on the box...his randomness seems carefully calculated, not everyone can do it as well as him, he seems very aware of the aesthetic behind what hes doing...tv needs less realism....i still cant find any refrences to sex or death in the first episode, just typical madness...

Is there any point to the surrealism?

At least when Vic & Bob used to do it, there was a point.

What is the point of surrealism? Just like any other art really, to convery a particular notion even if it means critisizing that particular purpose of art itself, which surrealism seems to do...

Not at all, the Boosh is mightily skillful in places (the dialogue) work of a genius not a child..

Some of the songs/lyrics on the Boosh are original and damn funny. They often take the piss. The crimping is good. Although I'll pass on listening to his band

BTW what do you consider good comedy, who?

Like food, music and taste in sexual preferences, or religion few agree on much.

Sometimes I went with him, and sometimes Noel was there too.
When I saw him backstage, he would throw crazy tantrums and always fight with his girlfriend.
They were both on drugs, but he was crazy.
I think most of the time he was on the toilet taking some shit. He was never nice or anything.
Always wondered why people think he is so funny, cause he surely isn't in real life.
Just plain psycho!
Ahhh, drugs and long term relationships seldom bring out the best in people.

I met him once with my girfriend after the London union chapel show. He seemed to have plenty of time for his fans and my then girlfriend organised a photo-shoot for fans to have their photo taken with him, she's good at getting things organised....anyway, he seemed like a nice geezer.

His old standup material was funny as fuck though. Saw him at Soho theatre once and it was insanely funny. A tiny tight little room where you couldn't breathe for laughing.

His later live solo show seems to tred similar ground but he seems to be going through the motions and you've heard all the jokes before.
