Round 3 Rank in Stand Up: 5th
I wasn't particularly impressed with this. Most of the material seemed built around lazy stereotypes and ethnic cliches.
Round 3 Rank in Stand Up: 5th
I appreciate that Michael does material about race, but I'd like to see him find a new perspective on it, find more of his own perspective on it. When he doesn't, he leans dangerously toward parroting already existing stereotypes.
Round 3 Rank in Stand Up: 5th
Why are you waiting so long to deliver your punchlines? And Asian people can't drive jokes? "Jews are definitely short." Huh?
I would like to thank everyone for the continued support throughout the tedious rounds of voting. I would also like to thank everyone for not getting too annoyed with my constant emails and myspace bulletins and facebook notes. Thanks to all who enjoyed my 3 rounds of videos and to all of those who didn't enjoy the videos and felt the need to leave comments of negativity, I am sorry that you were unimpressed with my style of comedy, but that is why comedy is subjective and not every comic is for every audience. Everyone please enjoy the rest of the Labor Day Weekend. Michael
well i've put in my votes this week, but this round is starting to remind me of a certain US election--is this contest based in florida, by any chance?
Horrible audio - very unprofessional - now I know why ciletti is in the lead - because her tape and delivery is the most professional! give it up ! She deserves this because she's earned it!

Man this whole comedy competition is douchebag central. Everyone voting for themselves. Ok, people are logging on like myself and are arguing with strangers about the fairness of this. At the end of this comedy competition, nobodys careers will be advanced. Everyone knew this from the start. There were about 150 mediocre entries submitted. If more people were aware of this competition, it'd be more competitive. I mean fuck me sideways with a lunchbox.
please admit that you are cheating, you are not at all funny
sorry. just not as funny as the other two, nothin personal.
Completely Pathetic. Let people actually watch your clip and vote. The people below are right, you can actually see the vote number going up without any new views or people being added.
Michael, As always, keep pursuing your dream! It's so refreshing to see a comic who uses their head and not their 4 letter word vocabulary to illicit laughter. From one performer to another continue to keep em laughing and the rest will take care of itself!!
it does not add a count to views if you login/out! it's video views. i just tried it! i didn't mean to get in the middle of all of this, but i think some people are accusing people of things without merit. i don't know the person i vote for. i came here because i saw something about it on myspace. i like his comedy and am saddened that others are trying to bring negativity to this by accusing others of cheating, esp. when "apron" has another very similar screenname, "apronbagg". hmmm...two accounts. very similar. hey, i'm just saying....
it's BAB, sweetheart. i am so sorry you are worryin' your precious little head about all of this. and sugar, i am not sure about 107 people, but several friends voted over here. but if it makes you feel better, i had them line up and take a number and vote. i do apologize for your distress, but this doesn't rule our lives down here. i am just a friend who votes for their friend daily. i really can't imagine people spending exorbitant amounts of time trying to cheat the system..and how? now that i'm done voting, i must get some rest...busy day in the ER tomorrow. you know, saving lives...not wasting mine...online...worrying about voting in a contest. goodnight, darling!
Are you people really that dense? Each time you login and log out of a Username, the page refreshes and another view is added to the count (whether or not you view the clip). Get your facts straight. As for the # of people, it also says a lot about how many different people are comming to the site. The cat is already out of the bag, since Barb was apparently there in person to see all 107 people line up and vote.
oh, and i'm voting right now. just thought i'd check with the lurkers and make sure they documented this. i will vote 15 times. and no, not going to watch the video. so i am surely manipulating something. i'm calling some friends on the west coast, since it's a few hours earlier there, and telling them to vote. they will be "new" but i think i am going to tell them to not view the video so the count won't go up, therefore further frustrating those who are so concerned since they will be wondering how in the hell people can vote without the number of "video views" going up.
