I find him very funny, tho he did once make me (and probably a few other NSC longtimers also) genuinely cringe. He was doing a semi-secret warm-up gig at Komedia, we all got really cheap tickets - think they were a tenner or something - and he was really genuinely funny. All good. Tho after about 30 minutes he suddenly went into thank-you-all-for-coming-youve-been-wunnerful mode and prepared to make his exit. Whereupon some pissed-up girl down the front loudly squawked out 'wot is that all you doing?' to mighty general amusement. Which left MM's flabber well and truly gasted and his floppy fringe all a-quiver. His jaw dropped open at the sheer impertinence!
To be fair though, once he'd got over the initial shock, he did come back on and do another 20 minutes

He's a funny man. Not my favourite comedian by a long shot but he is amusing.

He's just about the worst comic in Britain.
Unfunny. Chuckles to himself. Punchable face.
The two reasons he's got so famous are: 1) Excellent PR 2) Is inoffensive, so appeals specifically to middle-aged women.
If you rate Michael McIntyre, I assume you've never before seen another comedian.
It's like claiming you enjoy the music of Bruno Mars.

I went to the Komedia gig - couldn't breathe for laughing. I enjoy comedy gigs, so yes, I've seen many other comedians live.
The anti McIntyre brigade are pretty boring now on NSC. It's all subjective - worst I saw was Micky Flanagan. But plenty of others on here think he's funny. Don't understand why the neg ferrets have to blast the board every time McIntyre gets a mention.
Have you ever seen him live? He's good. He's a funny guy. I will watch his stuff (not that godawful chat show thing he does though). And you know what? I have also seen and like other comics, Stewart Lee, Daniel Kitson, Steve Edge, Micky Flanagan (Much funnier than on tv) and on and on.

I think this needs a public poll
Go on The Clamp, you know you want to! I reckon more dislike him on here than like him though.I find McIntyre amusing personally
Personally I would open that up to all ponytails.
I did a thread years back on this, and no one was able to come up with a single good example of a ponytail IMPROVING a man's look. It's never happened, ever. A good looking man can just about get away with it. Otherwise, it always looks shit.

People wearing football shirts anywhere else than a football match. In particular, on holiday - it's just saying, look at me, I support ...

....I.....I quite like McIntyre. Some of his observational humour is very decent. But then I like Lee Evans as well, so I appreciated my opinions on standup comics are null and void.

Embarrassingly, the first single I owned.
Less embarrassingly it once won me £7 on a Quiz Machine in The Royal George, Shoreham. Playing Pointless and the final round was about One hit wonders who got to number one in the charts. Thank you very much Nizlopi

I have to admit that I've just been given a new REALLY poncy bluetooth headset at work, and it is incredible. It is actually also doubles up as a) excellent headphones for music/podcasts, and also successfully drowns out all of the other background noise in the office. A great relief to be able to escape the herd of bellends whilst pretending to be listening in on a conference call.
