The Resume

Why Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn might be annoying:

    Some consider it a rip-off of 'Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher.'
    Colin would ruin jokes by stuttering and tripping over his lines.
    The comedians frequently interrupted and yelled at each other.
    Colin did a poor job of controlling the comedians, often yelling 'Shut up!' when the conversation got off track.
    The comedians were given information about the topics before each show, taking away the element of improvised comedy.
    It would often reuse the same comedians every week instead of looking for new guests.
    Many of the pre-written segments in the third act bombed.
    Colin ended every segment in the first season with the phrase 'Please don't leave me alone with these people.'

Why Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn might not be annoying:

    It was an entertaining complement to 'The Daily Show.'
    It allowed lesser known comedians to appear on the show and gain exposure.
    Popular comedians like George Carlin, Jerry Seinfeld and Chris Rock appeared on the show.
    It was edgy and did not try to edit or sanitize offensive comments and jokes.
    The comedians would read and respond to insults and critiques posted on the message board.
    One episode aired with two Jewish comedians and two Arab comedians humorously discussing Israel, the Middle East and stereotypes.
    Comedy Central did little to promote the show, causing it to suffer in ratings.
    There is a website that is dedicated to saving the show.
