Hello there! Yes, I have finally taken the time to at least do a mini-recap of last week’s show because I feel really bad. It’s not that I lost a little bit, scratch that, a whole lot of interest in the show but it might have something to do with it. Anyway, the point is that I am here to report the facts and only the facts, as only three comics are left to perform.

The week before last’s week show (you are excellent if you follow me in my ramblings) Roz was sent home in a not-so-shocking moment. Gary Gulman tried to be funny and I would go ahead and say that he and his girlfriend together are probably as funny as Ty’s smallest toe. As usual, our great friend Anthony “Plastic” Clark greets us in a rockstar fashion that would make Tommy Lee blush. I had a dream that I told Tommy that I thought he was really hot. Irrelevant, but I had to share. Why? Because I believe it more interesting than the way the producers handle the show. Smart way to anger TPTB! They use filler in a worse manner than American Idol. Five minutes for each comic is not enough, especially when there are 3 left. Rant over.

To-Nay asks the audience who let the dogs out and says that it’s time to get the party started. Who forgot to tell me the theme this week was popular songs of the late 90’s? Taylor might win but I’m rooting for Elliot. We have not one but two special guests this week and the first one is season two celebrity, Jay London!

All I have to say is, at least it’s not Ant. I ain’t getting my hopes up, there’s one show left to scare me away! I am very, utterly, immensely disappointed to learn that he has recycled his old jokes, such as “I’m the fourth guy on the evolution chart, don’t worry, it’s only going to get worse and my favourite, I look like something on the discovery channel.” He also says that he called 1-800 Bad Hair and that they gave him an extension and that he told Michael Jackson to lighten up. All in all, a great set for people who like that style of humour, but I’m afraid I’m not a part of that group.

The second comedian is none other than Caroline Rhea. Whatever this woman does in life, she’ll always be Sabrina’s auntie to me! She actually talks about someone asking her if Salem the cat was real. That show was good until they changed everything (like her boyfriend! Hello!) She also makes jokes about words that rhyme with “oozy”, a little Mel Gibson humour, how nobody can take a compliment and my favourite of them all, how her face hung up the phone. THAT was funny because that can actually happen. No comment.

The results are in and since this is a mini-recap, there is no time for suspense! Ty and Josh are safe while it’s between Chris and Michele to go home. I predict a man winning this year because Michele is sent home.

Josh Blue is the first to present his set this week. He thinks the competition is now overwhelming. There are a whole lot of signs in the audience with his name on it! He talks about scan it yourself checkouts at grocery stores and how it cost him a lot because of his arm. Then, he talks about when parents used to spell things in front of you when you were young. He tells his mom to stop doing it, he’s 27 years old! His parents then tell him they voted for R-O-Z. His finishes his set with a story about why he’s very religious when he shaves (haha!) and that if people see a telephone number when he’s up on stage, it’s to vote for him, it’s not a telethon.


Mister Chris Porter is up next and I am hoping he gets his magic touch back, as he was so good not too long ago. It’s just incomprehensible to see him struggle so much. His favourite topics seem again to be drinking, drugs and… that’s about it. Some people criticize Josh for talking about the same things, but Chris is starting to do the same. He does a long bit about anti-drug commercials and says that stoners in a drive-thru can’t hit people and kill them, he gets very angry about it all actually. He does a stoner bit about calling Jesus and such other fun activities. This is a mini-recap so there is nothing left to say.

Ty Barnett is my new hero. After being shoved away during the house episodes, he has, in my mind, taken this competition and stole it. He starts off his set by saying that yes, he comes from Chicago but he pays child support in Seattle. But he’s only kidding, he doesn’t pay child support! He thinks we should have seatbelts on public transportation and wonders why they put deleted scene on DVD’s. If it wasn’t good enough to be on the final cut, why would they show him? He says it’s like having sex with someone and then they pull out pictures of people they could’ve been with instead. He thinks Parental Aptitude Tests should exist, that way someone could be told they couldn’t have children, but a turtle would be fine. He finishes his set with a few jokes about drugs, namely that his cousin takes weed for medicinal purposes, for his lazy eye. Wow, I really can’t do justice to his delivery and his good material.

I got canned heat in my heels tonight baby and this is why it’s the end of the recap. Two perform next week and we’ll soon know who is the Last Comic Standing.
