Simon Amstell
 
Is abso-fucking-lutely hilarious. If I were to choose a 'hero', I'd choose him.

 


So, for those in the know of this cocky famous tv jew, I ask, what is your opinion?

'trivia on simon', by me:

He actually treats it so it's less frizzy.

ALIEN ANAL 06.30.2007 01:24 AM

yeh he seems pretty funny
and the buzzcocks seems pretty good too
i have discussed this with someone else before from this board, but the buzzcocks is exactly like a show we have here called "spicks and specks"

Pookie 06.30.2007 04:27 AM

He's not a smug twat then?

Amstell is class. Couldn't watch Buzzcocks with Lamaar, now I ALMOST can. They just need to ditch Bailey and Jupitus as well.

looks like a young chris morris.

ALIEN ANAL 06.30.2007 09:15 AM

Not entirely convinced.

More like a cross between Chrises Morris & Moyles.

 


And Amstell has the smug twatness of Moyles.

Hardly. His entire anti-hype stance is refreshing in a world full of Zane Lowes.

I don't have much of an opinion of him. He can be a bit twattish but he seems to be at least a bit self aware.

I don't mind Lamaar but he was a bit insufferable on Buzzcocks. Incidentally, I have 'celeb spotted' both of them at one point or another. Lamaar on Granby st in Leicester and Amstell on Oxford st in London.

Pookie 06.30.2007 09:45 AM

I have a lot of time for Lamaar, but he was rubbish on Buzzcocks.

Danny Himself 06.30.2007 09:50 AM

He was alright in the first few series but by the end he was bitter and twisted and hated his own show.

sarramkrop 06.30.2007 10:18 AM

He's on the right side of studenty humour, or a funnier Simon Pegg. I can totally see him being on one of those amateurish comedy shows that Channel 4 used to put on late at night, and were generally shite and predictable. In saying that, I don't mind him or watch him enough to contest his innocence. He won't last for long, I'm sure.

ALIEN ANAL 06.30.2007 10:19 AM

hah simon rocks
my love for him has grown each time i post in this thread.

sarramkrop 06.30.2007 10:19 AM

Alternatively, he's the Glastonbury festival with a clever sense of humour.

You must spread some reputation around before giving it to sarramkrop again.

I like the Jew-fro'd Amstell man. He makes me laugh. I like how he made that cunt from that band that are cunts look like a cunt on that TV programme from which the above youtube clip was from.

Ok, he's a bit on the side of, "Haha, I'm very clever and witty" but he's got a modicum of self-deprecation to him.

All absolutely correct. Have a gold star.
