I really hope this is a repost, because this is ridiculous. I managed to suffer through about 5 minutes of this show in case his show had somehow matured into something watchable, but no dice. It's EXACTLY like Chapelle's Show, except

A. Replace the N-word with the word "beloved patriot"
B. Replace "anything funny" with "shouting"

Just kill him already

I visited a friend one day, he was watching that show in the living room, needless to say that my IQ dropped significantly and irrecoverably that day!

Known to other comics as Carlos Men-Stealia, because he steals other's material.

I think George Lopez punched him out over stealing his material.

No, they just got in a huge argument. I don't think any punches were thrown.

All of his jokes end in a jab at mental retardation, "de-de-de" Sadly Carlos is probably dumber than most of the mentally handicapped.

A friend of mine showed me a DVR'd episode of this show a year or so ago, telling me how he much he loved it.

I thought it sucked then, even before I heard he was stealing jokes.

I hate it. If you can't make people laugh besides using race jokes, you're no comedian. He sucks.

There was physicality, but not punches. Supposedly Lopez had him pinned against a wall and an arm over his throat.

Mencia does, indeed, blow dogs.

I dont understand how he can perform anymore, isnt there any sort of copyright infringement going on here?

it's still on tv because the billions of mexicans that live here like watching mexicans on American TV...and so it makes the ratings good.
That and considering the alternate programming choices the Comedy central channel has (ie reno??).... there's no wonder it's popular.

It's not EXACTLY like the Chapelle show, the Chapelle show was 99% skits. Regardless of if the content is of a similar nature. Carlos does much more stand up, and a lot of walking around and talking to people on the streets.

I'm not going to get into an argument about funny/not funny, but honestly the 2 shows you mentioned only share a lot of jokes about race, and that's it. Mencia's show is much more like Jay Leno Jay Walking (a lot of talking to people on the street) just about race

and to cKGunslinger he is 1/2 Mexican, Rogan went on his rant about "he's not even Mexican!" (bitter fvcker) because his dad is German + Panamanian.
