Comedy based on racial issues is old, and boring. Its just a way for bad comedians to get a cheap laugh.

On another note, almost every night David Letterman, which is filmed in New York City, makes jokes about "hookers" in the streets of New York. This is funny to the tourists in the audience, and much of middle America, but it just sounds stupid to New Yorkers because there are virtually no streetwalkers in Manhattan. He does similar routines about crime here, and we're the safest large city in America, but the jokes apparently fly in some of the homes in the U.S., where they don't know any better. It's the other side of the coin as compared to the "Redneck" comedians - another "we're only trying to make you laugh at yourselves" bunch of assholes.

It's just the same old thing, over and over. If these routines were creative and funny in the first place, I wouldn't mind - but they were not.

I can watch Laurel and Hardy, the Marx Brothers, W.C. Fields, the Honeymooners, even the Three Stooges, and they are still entertaining, and often hilarious. I wish that we had some talent like that today.
