Ok, shall we have a thread for who is the most unfunny comedian in TF history?
(yeah, that tells you why I am the expert in commenting on 'negative' emotions :- ) )
My choice would be the great Oy Gee Mahendra.

plum :notthatway:
im not talking abt the "titles" people give to themselves...
vivek though caled as "chinna kalaivanar" - he resembles mr radha and thangavelu
Thangavelu ive always found funny and then vkr - come on he is :notworthy: summa aadama asayama comedy pannuvary..
his "aaahhh" with fingers on mouth is enough
absolutely..Quote:

SS Chandran would be next.
Thangavelu would have to settle for the third spot......
OTOH I can remember some 2-3 occasions when NSK managed to be funny.
For example, in Chakravarthi Thirumagan contest song with MGR, the latter asks a question in song. NSK buys time for an answer by bursting into an impromptu aalaapanai :lol:
prabhu ram, yes, there is something about katcheris, paatus and NSK comedy - the vignaganthai song does raise a few smiles, not laughs, though.
And that one in Deiva Piravi where as the kadhakalatchebam bhagavathar, he finishes a few continuous lines with "...fan" - eppadi iruppfan, enna koduppfan etc - to indicate that the table fan has gone off is a favourite of my father's - and as a child, I did find that funny.

Enakku :mrgreen: emoticon paaththaalE SSC nyAbagam dhaan varum. The swallowing noise and toothy smile that punctuate his jokes.... one of the most annoying sights captured on celluloid.
He is going to smile like that in Rajya Sabha once. Speaker Vice-President Ansari agaala maraNamnu news varum

Sari vuttudunga - naangallam IR-ARR level-la adichikittirukkom - VKR, SSC level-la-lam adhichikka venaam :-)
PR, nalla idea. The nominees so far
1) YG Mahendra
2) Er.. when the others knew YGM was contesting, they withdrew their nominations :-)
i dont think anyone wud disagree that YGM is the unfunniest bloke to hit TF...
but i dont agree (idhula enna aachiryam) on VKR, SSC or Thangavelu being unfunny........i just love all of these guys.......infact i love surlirajan and can tolerate santhanam too :)
Suruli was quite funny many times. Yeah, I can see the merit in VKR, too. But YGM's Gold medal and SSC's silver medal are reserved. Chance-e illai.
You louu thangavElA !Quote:

danaal-Am ennannA timing-aam. hayyo hayyo ! He is known to dwell and drawl beyond the punchline and ruin the joke which was weak to begin with.
Waitese.... SP vandhu YGM is quite funny appidinnu oru pOdu pOduvaanga. Sock aagama avunga solradhai kEkkaNum.Quote:

But VKR a indha list la sekradhu konjam unfair. Wasn't he a character actor who gets some amount of funny scenes in every movie? Ofcourse he often shouts way too loud, but most of his scenes in Aan paavam were quite hilarious. The whole movie was great! So atleast on that basis he should be disqualified from this list.
ippo irukura comediansla
kanja karuppu
vaiyapuri (i really dont understand what our guy like in this guy)
VKR is highly underrated esp in the hub. If these VKR films are not funny, I dont know what is:
1. aaN paavam
2. arangEtra vELai
3. Varusham 16
4. vELaikkAran
esra esra esra esra :)
Ganja kaRuppellAm sellAdhu. I love his dialaak delivery which is unique and natural. Another overrated comedian(?) - Livingston.
VKR is a wonderful charecter artist and also a comedian
Should not be categorized as a comedian.Such a good charecter artist who could do any role with such ease.
Unfunny:
1. Charlie [ Except Friends]
2. Y.G.Mahendra
3. N.S.K
4. Karunas
V.K.R :shock: - Arangetravelai onnu podhume!

Ganja karuppu and Karuna's all belong to the category of those who try too hard with little or no result. But even they have had some funny performances. Andha vagaila none can beat the spotless record of YGM and SSC... :thumbsup:
Wat??? IMO sachin did a much better performance in "mai kaha hoon" than what Charlie did in Friends. But that film was an absolute laugh riot!!!Quote:

I find Livingston pretty funny generally.Quote:

His best is of course "En purushan kozhandha maadhiri" and when he says "Asstralia" (for Australia)... padam therla :rotfl:
Karunas is generally funny IMO.
His dialogue delivery and voice :lol:
I thought vadivelu completely overshadowed Livingston in EPKM. And the fact that Livingston made a mess of the roles(?) he played in the last two Rajini films irks me to no end :twisted:
I found Karunas very unfunny in NandhA and some of his early films. But he was terrific in KT and PollAthavan.
Sari sari, popular acclaimunala VKR's nomination rejeeted. As a precursor to the koundamani school of tamil humour, it is only understandable that he commands such respect.
YgM continues to lead by wide margin - oru poll pottu numbers pakkanumnaen. Kooppudungaya andha thread owner-ai
Actually Charlie and all doesn't count because of being primarily a sidekick.
YGM, SSC have all tortured as lead comedians in a number of films.
How many films charlie was the lead comedian in - offhand I can think only.of sigaram
Ah aamaam Charley (yeah that's how he was numerologically contorted his name). I would put him below below YGM and SSC though.
Duet and some of his movies with KB, like vaanamE ellai.. damn annoying (KavithAlaya Krishnan is way better, thanks perhaps to the Crazy grooming).
Pudhu Vasantham :x
His famous but extremely annoying attempts include thenkAsi pattaNam and Friends.
When watching Friends one of my friends was like : "yEn dA thideernu ivan ippidi muzikkiraan"
"thalai-la adi pattadhulErndhu loose aayittAnaamaam"
"Oho ! munnAdi theLivA irundhaanaakkum.... indha joke ellAm adikkiradhukku munnAdhi solradhillayA dA ?"
Poove unakkaga is his best attempt. SSC is plain annoying. Utter crap. YGM... Useless fellow! These guys... how can they call them comedians? pErai sonnA oru comedy scene-Avathu nyabagam varaNum.
vivek when he tries to be a "social reformer"
damn boring!!!!!
:shhh: satham pOttu sollAdheenga.... avanga ellam Kalai Mamani award vAnginavanga :wink:Quote:
