Thanks for the post, Kez. I saw Robin Williams on tv yesterday talking about this but never actually heard the date. Don't know if I can stay up this late as I'm working early..... but likely I will and just be really tired the next da.y. |

It's not on here as far as I know, but if you fancy doing it that would be great. Is it not a good few hours though? Could be quite a task... |

It's 3 hours and I can just set it on timer to record. I'll cut out the ads and maybe split it into 2 parts.
I don't mind doing it at all, and especially if it's something you'd like to see. You do enough for everyone else so it'd be my pleasure to do it for you |

| So, what did y'all think of this? Mebbe I'm not in the best of moods, but I didn't find it to be super-funny (although, given the subject matter, perhaps there was an issue of sensitivity). I did enjoy the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert bit though. |

Bloodyhell I put the timer on from 10-1 as that's the time it's on here. It's now going on 2 and it's still not over! Good thing I was able to change the time on my computer so it kept going, but I don't get why anyone would watch this shite because it's censored? Why in hell would they cut out bits of it because the comedians are cursing? It's a bunch of shite if you ask me.
Anyway, I'll have it up tomorrow and maybe in 3 files if it keeps going for much longer. I wish it would end grrrrrrrrr  These comedians are about as funny as a crutch in a polio ward.
I guess some of you like this stuff but it's totally not my cup of tea. I'd far rather watch paint dry, and I can't turn off the tv with the way this recording's going or it will end the capture 
Fuck meeeeeeeeee!  |

| I'm surprised it's censored - that is shite. I'd expect better from HBO! Still, I'll look forward to seeing it anyway. |

I thought it would be on in my area but it wasn't..... sounds like I didn't miss too much! I hate it when the censor stuff like that. |

When I was encoding it I watched a wee bit. The beginning was pretty funny as they were showing old clips of other ones and some was quite good. I don't know about the rest of it but I'm sure there's some good laughs in there. When I was waiting for it to end, Rosanne Barr was on and she said a couple funny things but the audience seemed a tad unresponsive.
It's almost 4 hours long so there's bound to be some funny bits there, but I can't stand when things are censored. Cursing is part of the act in what they're doing and cutting it out just seems really ridiculous as the routine gets ruined. |

Actually, the show was simulcast on HBO, with a 8-second delay on TBS for the censors.
The HBO broadcast was not censored. I confirmed this after hearing f**k several times, then flipping over to TBS, where it was bleeped out.
Sorry I don't have a TV card in my computer, but it will be re-shown on HBO, if you want the uncensored programme. |
