Ok, he just had his own comedy special and I was watching it.. All of his jokes were about why he's famous somewhere else, but I've never heard of him or seen him.. Could someone explain it, or maybe send some links of why he is famous where you are?

I liked him in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. That's pretty much the only place I've seen him though.

If you can put up with his faggot hair, stupid clothes, annoying voice and his retarded prancing about he can be quite funny.

I like him actually, and that whole thing with that wanker Andrew Sachs was just ridiculous, the whole country getting angry over something they hadn't even heard and wouldn't of heard if it wasn't for the stupid tabloids.

But as a stand up he is pretty good, I went to see him live a few weeks ago, it was lol.

How dare you!

Andrew Sachs is a legend. He is far funnier than Russell Brand will ever be.

He didn't make a fuss about it - it was just blown out of all proportion by the media. I agree there was too much fuss made about it, but it wasn't Manuels fault.

We're talking about Russel Peters right? If so, his earlier stand-up was amazing. He did an hour long set on comedy now! that was brilliant.

If we're not talking about Russel Peters, who is Russel?

EDIT: I just realized Russel Brand is the name of a person, not Russel (a man) brand (as in copy-written). Start using capitals for proper nouns FFS.

Don't i fucking know it, i can't stand these reality TV "stars". It makes me hate this country to think that someone who has done fuck all except get their tit's out or argued in a house or married a shit footballer can be considered celebrity, or worse, a form of role model.

It's everything thats wrong with our modern day society.

But more to the thread topic, Brand isn't all that bad, a very good observationist and he commentates on things very well. There are other "funny" people on radio and TV who really have no comparison to someone such as Brand.

He's funnier than a lot of people who have TV shows on ComCent already (looking at you Sarah Silverman & Dimitri Martin), and actually Dane Cook is funnier than those people, too.

I enjoy his stand-up shows.

My girlfriend went to see him live, the other month. She thinks he's great.

I think he can be a right twat sometimes, but he knows this and bases a lot of his jokes on it...
