comedians

Some brief thoughts on comedians:

Thought #1: Dane Cook is not very funny.

Thought #2: It also occurred to me tonight that Borat is the spiritual inheritor (or cheap knock-off, depending on your angle) of the legacy of Latka Gravas, and Cohen’s style in general is clearly derivative of Kaufman’s.

This is not a criticism, or an indictment. It’s just an observation. I’ll probably go see Borat whenever it comes out.
