Don’t get why people are complaining about the women. I thought they were pretty funny and even if you didn’t find them funny they hardly said anything.

[@ThinLynottFan]

That worms joke though

[@taswick223]

Michael McGrath it’s two women, who to some are funny. There have been plenty of unfunny men on the show I just don’t think it’s a big deal having two women on the show. If they were obnoxiously unfunny I’d have a different opinion but they’re not that bad

[@Death2AllGaming]

@@taswick223 yeah and those unfunny men dont get invited back

[@dozog]

@@MichaelM28 It's utterly subjective. Ask your wife if she thinks the woman were funny. Angela has produced some pretty funny lines. More importantly, she is much better now than she was the first time she was on. Again.. its utterly subjective anyway.

[@davimurph]

​@@TrondBørgeKrokli almost. While it is surreal, it's not entirely random. It's a reference to duck pancakes you sometimes get at Chinese restaurants.

[@paulforryan4253]

I dont get why everyone loves Milton Jones he just says random things with a deadpan expression.

[@themightykenwynejones7353]

He's decent with delivery, but looks much better compared to the other crappy guests.

[@joewhite22]

I think he's funnier when he stops trying to be so wacky. Sometimes he puts too much wackiness into his delivery and for me it detracts from the joke.

[@mnomadvfx]

His style is more reminiscent of bygone comedy acts like Chaplin, the Marx brothers, 3 Stooges and Laurel and Hardy - not everything needs to be especially smart to be funny. What you call random often has relevance to the subject being discussed, but in an offhand barely connected way designed to take you by surprise. Sure its not for everyone, but as you noticed it clearly works for many commenters here.

[@dozog]

If you think they are random things, i am gonna say you don't get the jokes. His humor is largely based on a different perspective on reality. He leads you with a premise, then inverts your assumption with his punchline. It may not be your style, in the same way some people don't laugh every time a penis or a tit is the punchline.

[@chrisgarton4225]

You do realize that this show has aired longer WITHOUT Frankie Boyle than with him, right? He did a couple of seasons 10 years ago. Big deal. I don't think there's much danger of the show collapsing without him. And he has his own show -- which is is not funny at all, but earnestly preachy -- and which you may go watch right now. No one is making you watch this promo clip. Off you go. Hippity-hop, quick like a bunny. Don't forget to close the door on your way out.
