Sorry, but you would be a lousy TV executive if you think Comedy Central should cancel its most-watched and highest rated show.

He doesn't like Tosh because he's funny. Let's hope they bring back Carlos Mencia!

Damn, Tosh gets higher ratings than The Daily Show? I thought Daily Show was their cash cow.

Dane is awful in everything I've ever seen him in. Tosh's stand up is pretty good, but the show is awful.

Isn't Tosh once a week? Even if the ratings are higher, it's still more likely TDS brings in more money.

Tosh.0 is #1 for Comedy Central
and I think South Park is #2
then I think The Daily Show and The Colbert Report are #3 and #4

...but, yeah, Tosh.0 and South Park have short seasons and, for new episodes, are not on much (relatively speaking). So even though their handful of new episodes get the highest ratings for Comedy Central, for week-to-week viewership, The Daily Show and The Colbert Report would easily be tops.

Except South Park is their most valuable property, it rakes on home video.

This thread probably has more laughs than the four episodes combined.

From the clips, Dane Cook wasn't even the worst thing about the show.

Re: Dane Cook show canceled beofre it even airs

Good. Dane Cook sucks. Time for him to put together a few more stand up specials that bomb and watch him disappear completely.

As for Tosh. I think his stand up is hilarious but his show is only funny because of the clips he shows. It gets by on funny videos but the quips by Tosh are just offensive for the sake of being offensive. That's not funny to me. That's easy. I see nothing clever about watching a fat person on a youtube clip and then comparing her to Jessica Simpson. Most of his bits are just lazy too. He just shows a clip and the bit is him doing the same thing in the clip except he's naked. With that said, he will toss out a gem once in awhile.

Re: Dane Cook show canceled beofre it even airs

What's sad was with all the hype that surrounded the guy a few years back, I tried giving him a shot, through that HBO reality type series and a couple of his stand ups... He was and IS so unfunny, he's popular with older teen girls because they thought he was cute... Employee of the Month was so bad, I was hoping the film would end with a horrific terrorist attack on that shopping club they worked at, I hated every character in the movie...

Hilarious impersonation of Mr. Cook by a much more talented stand up...

I'm not a Dane Cook fan, but I also never really understood all the acclaim Anthony Jeselnik got.
