Barrowman - king of cheese

[WillsBabe]

Anyone watching Tonight's the Night? Generally, it's enjoyable, but there are moments of such high cringe factor I have to mute the tv!

 

[wamdue]

to busy watching Primeval

thats right I a Doctor Who fan said he was watching an ITV Sci-Fi show on a saturday night.

Out of respect for everything funny that's cheesy, I avoid it like the plague.

 

[WillsBabe]

After tonight, my husband has forbidden me watching any more. Can't say I can blame him.

I watched that Justin Lee Colins show last night, and Barrowman was on it, I have one question though:

Is John Barrowman getting gayer? He seemed to be "more gay" than usual, and it showed a clip of last nights show (the one Barrowman hosts, forgot what it's called), and he seemed more gay.

He does seem to gay it up on some shows. I think Simon Amstell even called him on it when he was on Buzzcocks.

See, I've been wondering this, too. He was on the One Show a little time ago, and I thought he was more camp than I'd ever seen him.

He's playing a well established stereotype - the non-aggressive camp gay.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

I think he's becoming more "Scottish", personally.

Still, gotta love that big gay Tom Cruise lookalike.

Are you saying the Scottish seem very gay?

I think the Campometer has just exploded...behold! The Barrowman's cameo in this clip that was already camper than a row of pink tents!

Hell no. Just Barrowman's Scottish accent seems more noticeable of late.

But the Scots did give the world the Gay Gordons (which is an entirely different thing altogether).

Comedy twenty years out of date.

Makes sense that'd be on ITV1 then.

I actually felt sorry for Hitler being involved in that sketch.

Nah, I'd say twenty nine.

 

[Cutter John]

I'd say that clip just set gay rights back about ten years. Holy crap.

That's the weirdest thing I've ever seen, I think. Were they all on crack?

^^ Oh please. You clicked the link after you read it was terrible, didn't you? For the same reason, there is an audience for that. I think it has a lot to do with the theme and tone of the talk shows for which these kinds of sketches are made. They are not meant to survive the airing. Out of context, they indeed look even more ridiculous.
Lucky you for not having been exposed to that kind of comedy before, but it exists. No need to sound so shocked.
