Dara O'Briain on why comedians are reluctant to do Mock The Week

Haven't got that free speech anymore ... without a motorway countdown miles of social media reverberating ... ! ?

It worked when it was more one liner orientated, really laugh out loud. Now it’s “Waffly” it has become slow, almost tedious. If we wanted to watch a chat show we’d watch Graham Norton. It was the quick wit and one liners that made it. Originally a big fan but now seldom watch it

It died when Frankie Boyle left.

Lucky enough Ed Byrne always seems to be available it helps he’s a pal of Daire’s though,he is not funny

thetwerkinggirl daraobriain MTW should have Ava Vidal back

Because it's PC crap

Mock The Week is not the same without frankieboyle.

Because the BBC and the rest of the liberals have made comedy a hate crime!

It is a great show especially considering how long it has been going but getting new blood on it is a definite must!!

""People go, 'Oh you don't make jokes about the Muslims,' - go for it. Listen, no-one is stopping you.." Not after the first few, certainly. As any student of recent history of, say, Paris, might suggest.

Personally I think the show and the so called comedians on it are about as funny as watching an orphanage burn down. Maybe it's my age.

Is it because they'd rather do their own material, than follow a script written by far less funny people? It's terrible. Comedians aren't actors.

Because it is not funny anymore. To PC, to busy pushing the BBC agenda. it is terrible. Comedy is about being risky and edgy, something not allowed on the BBC.

They havent had a comedian on since frankie boyle

Toxic masculinity at the bbc? Who knew?

cuz they lack the talent 2do improve.

Miss frankieboyle and Russell Howard and Andy Parsons!

Been absolute shit since frankieboyle left.

And that’s why it is TOTALLY BORING AND HAVE THE MOST CRAP COMEDIANS ON EVER.

Because it's not funny anymore . Topics , trump , the right , trump . Stops being funny when it's the same jokes every week

Its been shit for years now. Just not funny anymore.

Because it's a mockery. All BBCPolitics is partisan claptrap

Because it's so pre-scripted it's embarrassing!

Because they don’t want to work for an InstitutionallyRacist Tory Party propaganda organisation? BBCBias Makes sense

Because no one listens to the BBC liberalati dishing out unfunny crap that's why.

Scripted shite

Comedians?

Lost its edge when it lost Frankie Boyle.

Well that’s a shame, love that program & always have. 🙂

Because he’s on it.

Because it's the same old rubbish regurgitated every week?

Used to be a fan but format is [now] dated and some of the new panelists are just not that funny ..

It's gotta be less intimidating than a Never Mind the Buzzcocks revival right now.

Coz it's not funny ?

run-of-the-melt

That’s true that Frankie Boyle did used to kill off riffing with one-liners. But it’s also true that when Frankie was on it, it was funniest.

What's with all the bad-mouthing of MtW? It's one of the best things on telly and I never miss it. That Hislop fella is absolutely brilliant.

overcairns Because no one is as funny as frankieboyle was! Been garbage ever since 👎🏻

That's not why comedians are reluctant to do Mock The Week I promise you

Is it because it's rubbish?

Seen funnier traffic-lights

The most shocking thing I learnt from this article was that giraffes only sleep for 5 minutes at a time.

Cos it’s really shit?

Because it's heavily scripted dribble

13 Years on and it still shown not to slow down.
