The Bobroom

I've followed these guys careers for a while, back at the days they performing in the back room of the Toronto Rivoli (I think that's what it's called) and they were great back then. But then many years passed and nothing....and then all of a sudden they pop up on The Canadian Comedy channel. I was elated. I live in the states now, so I had to get a friend of mine to tape the episodes and then fed ex them down to me...and a lot of their stuff still holds up. Many, many funny sketches. I still love the one where Mark Deaver plays the awkward guy. Very funny. Some stupid claymation thing about crack heads in the middle of the show kind of bothered me, didn't seem to fit with the show's style. Anyway, if it's ever on in Canada, make sure to check it out. Very funny stuff!

just because someone has a different sense of humour than you doesn't mean you have to be excessively mean. The Segment "crack doll house" is indeed very strange and absurd and while I agree that they did not have to keep doing that segment it has fun and weird. Winston Spears is delightfully strange and a welcome change of pace from more mundane comedians. The rest of the show had some very good sketches and some not so great sketches but that is the way with any sketch show. My favourite sketches included co-workers played by mike beaver and Jason jones. IF CTV or the comedy network produced any more of The bobroom shows I would gladly watch! as for the rest of these "terrible performers" they in fact have done some really good work and look forward to seeing them in more. (P.s, Yes I have more than basic cable.)

This was one of those Canadian sketch shows that just had good, funny writing and strong performances. There were no bad impressions of the Prime Minister, no topical humor, no political humor and no recycled jokes. It is original comedy that had me in stitches every time it was on. Aside from the brutal lighting and awful studio audience this was a terrific sketch show. Just funny sketches, completely different than any other sketch shows on in Canada. If you like KITH you will love this! Jason Jones and Mike Beaver, two of the writers also wrote a hilarious Canadian feature film called Ham and Cheese. It's better than the show. Dave Foley and Scott Thompson from KITH are in it too and they are all excellent. I think if this show was given the chance it could have been great. I guess we'll all be stuck with Royal Canadian Air Farts for another twenty years. Oh good god, help us!

I encourage all actors and creators of "the Bobroom" to completely disregard all of the cynics who criticize "The Bobroom". It was, without question, one of the greatest Canadian comedy shows I have seen in years. I didn't like the"Crack doll house" Segments, but the rest of the show was hilarious, truly unexpected form a Comedy Network Start up. I don't understand the comedy network; "The Bob room" got canceled, but "Puppets who kill" gets re-newed season after season. Go figure. All of the office Sketches with Mike Beaver where genius. I know I'm not the only one who would like to see this show back on the air. Anyways, the Bob room was an unexpected gem in Canadian comedy.

this show was one of the worst things ever produced on the comedy network in canada. how any body could look at the ideas and scripts for this and then says that they are funny and worth productizing is not know to me. bobroom had no talent among any of the writers or performers and the production value was not good at all did they use camcorders with VHS tapes in some guys basement of garage? the actor's can't be blame to much because i saw three of the guys in lots of other stuff around and they weren't terrible in all that other stuff but this show is just terrible. i think they wrote them selves so i would say stop ever writing again and just stick to performing in movies and stuff because this is just painful.
