And here I come to piss on the parade.
Dangerfield was a decent enough comedian on TV and in movies, but I learned the hard way never to pay to see him. He would barely do 35 minutes, did no new material, and sped through it so fast that you would think he was double parked.
He had a decent enough comic personna (as long as you didn't look too hard), but his stand up was the same kind of jokes that borscht belt comedians made a living on in the 40's and 50's. It's a shame he passed, but as a comedian, he was pretty damn mediocre. As a comic actor, he was fun, but showed no sense of script, and was in 5 shitty movies for every good one, and he didn't make very many movies to begin with. |
