LImmy's Homemade Show

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

I agree with all the comments really.

- His grey everything is a pretty dull colour pallette which by ep 3 makes things samey
- There is some really slight observational material that doesn't go anywhere good and even when it returns for the fourth time in the episode it doesn't build to a real payoff
- There is probably 45 minutes worth of good stuff over the 90 minutes of the 3 episodes.
- Some really great stuff of a kind I was wanting to see more of that sort of thing (Hate begets hate, intruder, mirror guy, techno advice). We were laughing out loud in places.

So overall with expectations lowered it was decent with some real highlights but seemed to run out of steam by the end. I mean, most of us could probably think up better half hours of homemade comedy than episode 3. In Kelvin's case he already has. The fat sketch, fireplace, bin day, train announcement... Pretty shite stuff.

In the stream he said he wore the t shirt as a uniform to help continuity

I don't have a problem with it, wouldn't have guessed it would be an issue

[popcorn]

I really like the plain, utilitarian visual design and MISE EN SCENE of Limmy's Show, I think it's quite original and clean, but yeah the Homemade Show stuff takes it too far.

[Noodle Lizard]

Is it just me, or is anyone else not really bothered by the title stings?

I'm not - Limmy's Show had the same thing, didn't it?

[madhair60]

Shoulders there reminding me of Radioface, fucking grand

[Excellent_Biscuits]

The 'Limmy's Show' stings were quite funny though and used as surprising almost punchlines. This new show it's pretty much just after every sketch.

Although halfway through episode 2 I realised I didne give a fuck.

[kitsofan34]

A tad simplistic, probably, but surely it was just far more egregious in the weaker sketches of episode 1 than the much stronger episode 2?

Just found out the locals have been saying 'LimDog Millionaire' as a play on Slumdog Millionaire.

[Excellent_Biscuits]

Here (in Glasgow) people have started referring to him as LimDog Millionaire.

Just found out have you aye? Just happened to hear that now aye?

By chance I was searching for something about Limmy yesterday, and Google popped up with one of those "net worth" drop downs.

$6m according to some website called Celebrity Net Worth. I suspect that's not necessarily a reliable number!

[Captain Z]

They ought to call him "Limdog Millionaire"!

We should call him Slumdog Limmillionaire!

Ah, I knew there must be some truth to it! Good on him, happy Twitch is paying off. Might treat myself to a LimDog with ketchup and mustard to celebrate the new series (one of the local cafes has started selling 'LimDogs', I think it's a cafe he went to once, not sure what makes it different to a normal hot dog though).

[Excellent_Biscuits]

It comes with loads of normal mini hotdogs that aren't funny

Nilesy & Katercakes are rapidly becoming the Twitter version of Chris Evans' "Awooga posse" or whatever they were called.

Katercakes is fucking great. Here she is doing a Q&A on behalf of Limmy, sending him up like a champ: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/590222124?t=05h12m33s

How do you wipe your Twitch history?

My criticism is perhaps a little unfair, and would probably apply to any 'normal' who joined his stream. Either laugh at everything he says, copy his comedic style so you end up with 4 Limmy's on at once or try to prove that you won't be bested by him. Just the nature of the beast, I guess.

Fuck me, I managed 15 seconds of that.

[Dewt]

She talks like a regular person and 15 seconds isn't enough time to judge more than a single sentence so I think you might be being a bit dramatic there

This is proper shit.

[Dewt]

You are all wrong for a living. There's no way you could be this wrong as just a hobby.

[Dewt]

In all seriousness I can understand not liking that but the vitriol people have for regulars on a stream they don't even like is unpleasant

[bgmnts]

People want to see Limmy doing his comedy. They don't want randoms on the internet getting involved or distracting from it.

Makes sense to me.

Although I think everyone on twitch has their own stream so it is inevitable but still.

I was helpless with laughter during that bit. Killer.

Dunno where he could have taken it, mind.

If people think the regulars aren't part of his comedy then they haven't really seen more than 5 minutes of it.

[bgmnts]

I've seen hours and hours of Limmy streams and the only stuff worth anything is when he's just riffing, not interracting with the regular viewers. Just me though.

[Unnecessary]

I like it dewt
