no real cult following or staying power in the nostalgia-repeat-viewing comedy film cannon

It aired almost every week during the morning on Comedy Central in the 2000s. Was a fun watch before I became a raging anti-semite.

Those were the days.
>Hebrew Hammer and the royal tenenbaums on constant rerun
>new shows seemingly every month
>John Stewart and Stephen Colbert were fun frenemies (no brown guy news show)
>Chappelle show and South Park episodes that upset our parents but were a must-see to talk about in school the next day
>specials of some underrated comedians that died too early and early sets of some of today’s mainstream
>you could jack off to Sarah Silverman any time of day
>the old logo
>tough crowd, drawn together, crank yankers….
Where did the time go?

Is that the life story of baseball great Hank Greenberg?

>>213928768
>hammerin' hank
no it's blacksploitation satire that replaces the nigger with a hasid jew, and something about the north pole plotting something or whatever, I forget what exactly

You became an ignorant chud. Condolences. You now think everything is "woke". You think TV is ruined because you think there are more brown people on it.
I'm glad you're not enjoying modernity and progression. And I'm glad you're never going to reverse it and "return" the nation to some white haven it never even was.
I'm probably whiter than you even. Go fuck yourself.

I wish they made more Comedy Central original movies.

I also liked this one starring midget Joe Rogan

Hank Greenberg was known as the Hebrew Hammer. You are thinking of Hank Aaron. Greenberg was a prominent Jewish ballplayer in the 1930s and early '40s.

I remember this one, Porn N Chicken (something about college students who get into making their own porn movies) and weed dude 420 movie called Rolling Kansas. Oh yeah and one called Krod Mandoon or some gay shit that came out way later long after it seemed like they stopped making Comedy Central original movies, that one I couldn’t get into

>>213928638
Royal Tenenbaums? When they show that level of stuff? I remember it was always Airheads and Saving Silverman, which I loved.

>>213928638
In the end, the truth will set you free

>>213928638
>>new shows seemingly every month
I remember that, but wasn't that a bad thing? Like, they would come up with a lot of different sitcoms and sketch comedy shows and nothing seemed to last half a season?

>>213928638
Late 90s / early to mid 2000s Comedy Central was so comfy it was pretty much the only channel I had on in those days. The constant SNL and the Kids in the Hall reruns, Rodney Dangerfields back to school, revenge of the nerds: nerds in paradise, and that blackface movie soul man on every afternoon, more raunchy 80s sex comedy stuff the Porkys movies or Private Resort (sex comedy that was one of Johnny Depps first starring roles) always airing in the late night hours

>>213929261
Haha I rmemebr watching Airheads so much on Comedy Central I can pretty much mouth the words to it if I watched it today. And I def remember a period they played Rushmore and Tenenbaums so I can back up that anons claim. In the late 2000s or so they seemed to start getting a higher caliber of movies, I remember kinda missing the more obscure shitty 80s movies and sex comedies they used to show by that point that was the point Comedy Central got more mainstream and were showing more modern (for the time) movies.

>>213929320
I like to think of that time fondly. Yes, some shows only lasted a season but at least they were trying to make new interesting stuff. Comedy Central was giant back then and for some strange reason dropped the ball as soon as comedians began launching themselves to stardom with YouTube and podcasts. They could have been something more but they chose BROAD CITY and other women led projects to torpedo their network. Sad.

I thought that was this thing's whole thing. It got a lot so much playtime on Comedy Central, over and over, and has its own following. Probably among Jewish millennials, I would imagine. But wasn't it popular enough that they were talking about making a sequel when Mel Gibson got a DUI and a few years later when Donald Trump got elected president?

Whoever designed the post 2011 logo should be killed gruesomely

>>213929537
2011 was the last time comedy was allowed in movies, so it makes sense the logo would go to shit around then.

>>213929537
Why did so many companies make their logos minimalistic in the 2010s?

>>213929328
I got tired of CC movies. Just a handful of titles in constant rotation and very long commercial breaks in the last half of the movie, plus all the censoring from being on cable. I just flipped the channel

91 to 2000 is the only CC logo that accept as the real one

>>213929595
My guess is the shit tier graphic artists graduating at the time realized (1) they sucked at graphic design and (2) logos were near perfect after the 2000’s due to sharpened skills before computers become a replacement for design knowledge. Those faggots probably pitched a redesign to be more “modern and bold”

>>213929328
I remember seeing Dutch starring Ed O’Neill a lot on CC at one time loved that one

>>213929706
Also dumb backlash against the 2000s after the recession led to extremely minimalist designs

>>213929328
I remember discovering One Crazy Summer and Better Off Dead as a kid from Comedy Centrals constant airings

>>213929595
>>213929706
I really do think doing anything creative on a computer will stymie the creative process and thus the output. There's something about doing something real with your own hands that can't be replicated with software.

>Better Off Dead
Truly underrated
