Last Comic Standing Season 3

Ehh... I'm not sure I like this. It's basically all stand-up, all the time. Which I realize some people expected from the beginning from a show with this title, but I'm sick to death of hearing the same routines over and over and over. Get some NEW material gang! I voted for Alonzo tonight for bringing some timely Olympic humor. Season 2 did some pretty brilliant strategizing, also. They literally picked the five funniest comics from Season 1 so one is assured of going home. I don't know what the Season 1 comics were thinking, picking Todd Glass and that annoying Jessica Kirson woman. When I saw her in the running to replace Bonnie Macfarlane, I groaned. And then they PICKED her for their team. Ugh, ugh. She seems to be a sure goner, in my view. Or Todd, at least. And the Season 2 team is none the worse with either of those two gone.

Oh, and what's up with Bonnie anyway? I hope she had some contractual obligations to prevent her from doing this new season, because if she thinks she is somehow better than the show, she has some serious delusions. Did you notice that no one from Season 1 was doing anything at all to prevent them from coming back to TV? Yep. And most of them got more screen time than she did.
