Meh, make assumptions about me wearing baggy pants and earings or some other garbage like that. Bob Hope is still lame. Actually, I see his humour as being the exact opposite of force fed media humor. It's acceptable to most people in the same way as a lame office joke about the weather, or how politicians are crooks, or lawyers, or a number of other over-used jokes like that, is accessible to most people.

Do you guys find the "comedy" sections in Reader's Digest funny also? Things like "Humor in Uniform" and "All in a Day's Work"? That's the level I put Bob Hope on. So if you like Bob Hope and Reader's Digest humor, well at least you're consistent, I guess.

Get off your high horse. Bob Hope was funnier than you will ever be.

i have to agree with triumph, some of those jokes made me chuckle, but the jokes definitely show their age. they're just too tame, they don't hit you out of the blue like stuff you see today.

It's the kind of humor that old people laugh at. Mostly because that's their generation. For our generation, he is NOT funny. Compare The Simpsons, Seinfeld, or Office Space to Bob Hope... We're so much more evolved, humorously speaking, than him!

I'm 19 and I not too stuck up to laugh at/and appreciate someone like Bob Hope. Evolved? Oh yeah, that crap they make money off of now under the disguise of comedy.

Yeah? So am I.

thats your opinion, but thats ok not everyone likes his humor. But most people would admit your opinion is pretty humorous tho. 😛

Bob Hope was one of the funniest comedians ever. He was witty and had unbelievable timing. Didn't have to go over the top of shock people to get laughs either.

His only downside imo was that he wrote very little of what he used and hired tons of professional joke writers to constantly feed him material.
