Like many Frankie Boyle fans, I have been impatiently waiting for his sketch show Tramadol Nights. The reviews of fans are in and it's not good. I have now watched it myself and there is no new material and the sketches are bad. I am kind of getting annoyed with these repeated jokes.

I find most comedians have started repeating jokes but I hope its just a dry spell because they have to be careful what they say.

I've found that Noel and Russell Howard tend to keep things modern and up to date; and since on Good News Russell doesnt repeat to much Noel should *crosses fingers* be just as good. Remember Noel is one of them that randomly goes off on one over someones coat or whatever catches his eye so we should get new material every episode. <3

I am pretty forgiving of repeating jokes as long as they are good and still relevant. I can understand if they are repeating jokes on tv while touring. But once that tour is over they need to find new jokes.

Frankie's 1st stand up dvd was awesome, to me the new one seems like its deleted scenes.

Good News is awesome! It always leaves me with in a good mood. Have you seen Noel's standup on Michael McIntyre's comedy Roadshow?

Oh yeah. He was wearing a delightful poncho. At first the bluebottle impression seemed weird but now I love it. XD
