True Blood makes me laugh. There's nothing like a newsreader evisceration to get one chuckling.

Re: Favourite comedies / comedians

I don't really have a favourite - I only have those I despise, mainly:

Eddie Izzard ("I wear make up, now please laugh at me for being so edgy" - unfunny attention seeking tosser).

Billy Conolly (unfunny scotch twat).
