3.0 out of 5 stars too many bad comedians, July 21, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Laughing Out Loud: America's Funniest Comedians - Vols. 1-5 Boxed Set (DVD)

this is a five disc set that could easily be condensed into three very funny discs. each disc at some point leaves you wandering 'is the next guy going to be funny, man i sure hope so'. this set gives you a chance to see some of todays best comedians when they were much younger. some peoples bits are very short, one joke short, which leaves you feeling a little jipped. The replay value is minimal because you have to skip around so much to keep the laughs going.

3.0 out of 5 stars Up and down, January 11, 2002

This review is from: Laughing Out Loud: America's Funniest Comedians - Vol. 5 (DVD)

With a roster that includes Adam Sandler and Jerry Seinfeld you might expect some stellar comedy, but several of the unknowns really drag it down. I could hardly tolerate watching some of it. Although it's novel to see Roseanne up on stage - thin, with feathered coif - the comedy just isn't consistent enough. Seinfeld is on for 2 minutes, Sandler tells 3 jokes over the course of 5 minutes. The first half is 4 stars, the 2nd half is 1.5. If you're looking for wall-to-wall laughs then go to the "Jerry Seinfeld on Broadway" DVD instead.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hit and miss, February 1, 2002

Of the Laughing Out Loud series, this is tied with #5 as being the best, but that isn't saying much. Tim Allen does his standard monkey voice bits, Caroline Rhea is quite good, and
Carrot Top (!?!) is another shining moment. Who knew he could be so clever and full of energy. Still not as packed with laughs as you might expect though.
