Yuk, Yuk, Yuk

Oh, boy. Caught the last 10 minutes of Blue Collar TV on Comedy Central last night waiting for The Daily Show to start. If you haven't seen it, BCTV features comedians specializing in "redneck" humor. Jeff Foxworthy and Bill Engvall are on the show along with some other guy I've never seen before. What I saw was really bad. I guess the corny gags on Hee Haw back in the day weren't just schtick but a way of comedy. The worst part was after one of these guys would tell the lamest of all jokes the audience would roar, often getting on their feet. Gawd, it was awful.

Full Disclosure: I once attended a Bill Engvall concert. I got free tickets from a black guy who couldn't wait to get rid of them. He seemed grateful I took them.
