Chris Morris thread

Forgot to mention Nathan Barley, which was prodigal of Filthy Frank, Eric Andre and Pewdiepie and the modern reddit humour in general
Going to give On the hour a chance now
the monologues are brilliant
the one in the first blue jam episode with the gun is my favorite

*not prodigal, i meant foreseeing

On the Hour can be slow for some people to get into and some of it is a bit dated but it's really the best medium Chris and the rest of the cast has had for that style of comedy, lots of word play, satire, and absurdism, and heaps of variety. Not to mention the excellent first appearances of Alan Partridge.

>Not to mention the excellent first appearances of Alan Partridge.
I think he helped write the farmer episode which is one of the funniest I'm Alan Partidge... eps

OP here
fun fact, that in 2009, Two finnish comedians wrote an unusually dark (for finnish humor) and absurdist comedy, drawing plenty of inspiration from jam with similiar haunting editing, great production value (compared to usual finnish sketch-shows) and good actors.

Jani Volanen FTW. I was really disappointed how poor Ihmebantu's official English translation was and how they didn't really try much exporting it. I hope M/S Romantic sees international market. Häpäti.

>Jani Volanen FTW
yep
shame his production is so minimal and i don't find Studio Julmahuvi that creative or funny now
He mentioned in an interview that he started a new script after finishing M/S Romantic, really hope he takes advantage of the Chris Morris style editing and music

As the minister for ships SPRAWLS on a pin it's back to you Chris

"Why Bother," thing he done for the radio with Peter Cook. Should be on YouTube

Peter, next time you cross the road, don't bother looking.

Shit sounds promising if it is what it sounds like
i've added plenty of music from Blue jam to my personal spotify playlist
>not self aware , not charismatic, he was not a significant player in the industry he was a wannabe, he was a new media twat almost hipster that was always a little off the track.
implying the people i listed don't subscribe to atleast some of the characteristics you mentioned
this sketch displays an interesting side of Morris i think
Jam's intention is never to be mean, rather it's to be silly, but in a bleak way
if you're familiar with Chris Morris from Brass eye and day today, you know that the conventional British silliness is a part of his humor, however a person stumbling on Jam may see it just as plainly mean and degrading humor. I don't think that's the case

The Chris Morris Music Show. It's a radio show and the amount of stuff he got away with was hilarious.

kino incoming boys

Häiriötekijä was kino. No international release though.

He appears in seasons 3 and 4 of Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle. I believe he was some type of consultant on the show too. It's not Chris's show but it is related to him and it is one of the best things ever to be on TV anyway!

I'm hoping the woke left does with this film what the tabloid right did with Brass Eye: Paedogeddon
I expect he'll cuck out tho in this case

No joke, I once bought a copy of Nathan Barley and watched the whole thing. By the time I finished the last episode, I had this growing urge to find some twat hipsters on Shoreditch and brutally murder them to a pulp. I'm serious, I think you watch the whole series I think it'd genuinely turn you into a serial killer. For the record, I never went through it. but then again those cunts deserve it

Yea Forumsirgin mad a fictional hipster got head from a 13yo.

I wish I had travelled to Helsinki to see Häiriötekijä when it was still running in live theatre, since the movie adaption is another director's interpretation and highly stripped from the original content and rhythm of the play (lot of stuff that works on stage simply couldn't be easily ported over to movie format). Instead it acts as a "top 10 scenes re-acted" and Volanen deliberately distanced himself from the production process because he wanted it to be Sampenperä's own project, not his. Good movie nonetheless. Best episodes were the anxious tourist guide and woman living in messy apartment hiding her babies in banana boxes.

I think Alan Partridge is brilliant, a masterpiece of comedy. But you wouldn't think it going by The Day Today, one of the character's weakest stuff.
I love both AP and TDD/OTH but I find it hard to understand why out of everything in those programmes that might've had legs for more they went for him. I'm fucking happy they did, I'm just saying I don't see why they thought AP was the standout element there to base an entire fictional franchise on

>woman living in messy apartment hiding her babies in banana boxes
Which one was this? Do you mean the one where the hermit was trying to transform into a baby?

Also the part in airport was objectively the best.

Is that cosmo?

What did he unironically mean by this?

I think it was right before the "turning back into a baby" one yes. The baby theme was probably used as a smooth transition from one episode to another. It was pretty short scene and easy to miss unless you paid attention to the details.

Who else would you go with? Peter O'Hanraha-hanraha is literally a one-trick gag, albeit a good one but he's basically a non-character. I think Marber even played another reporter in Day Today who spoke in exactly the same tone but was "competent"

Rosie May is basically a non-entity. Doubt Chris would be up for a Christopher Morris sitcom (Brasseye is technically a spin off with the same presenter anyway). Alan really is the only character with some meat to him + it was Coogan's first big breakthrough so he prolly didn't want to let it go that easily

Ok I was too much of a brainlet to get that. I thought it was his apartment and the woman was concerned niece or something. The baby man was pretty unsettling.

I'm not saying any of the others would've made better or more obvious candidates, I'm saying none of them were, including AP. I don't look at TDD/OTH and think "this is spin-off material"

I didn't get it either before I saw the credits and noticed it being listed as a separate episode, then watched the part again to find out what's going on there. "Jemmailija" was the title btw.

>I find it hard to understand why out of everything in those programmes that might've had legs for more they went for him.
they tried him out on radio with a fake chatshow before they went further
