Yes, BUT I think there's an increasing tendency to in fact consume comedy in the way you describe. My sister's kids are always showing me short youtube clips, that's where/how they get their laughs.

Seeing how the first two rounds have gone and the comments made, I know my next two selections are going to get trounced...(Unless another Doors video pops up ! )

i wonder what annoys posters the most? having their music taste slagged off or their sense of humour?

I'm less surprised at the unfunny clips than I am at the number of clips that aren't comedy, or aren't funny without some missing wider context (like the WC Fields example).

You just don't find that clip funny. It isn't really lacking a context - it's just absurd.

it's quite fun guessing who posted what clip, based on the humour of the board. i think the most obvious one is sloop. i think i've guessed G and JC's picks, but it took their comments to sway me.

Murray Melvin! Casting him as this jack the lad photographer in Alfie has to be one of the most spectacular miscastings ever!

Another round tonight, G? Absolutely, although the ties probably won't get posted until fairly late in the evening. I'll also be closing the round one ties and you'll get the first appearance of the leadership tables.

I'm starting to think that people are putting more thought into the SHOW or PERFORMER they enjoy, and less into the actual CLIP.
Maybe this is something to do with availability, I'm not sure. I've seen a lot of 'not what I would have chosen from xxxx' comments, and I often feel the same way.

next round: a dog farting vs an extract from the Gettysburg Address I think you're being a tad optimistic in anticipating the humour content..I don't want you to be disappointed! Anyway, you'll find out tonight.
