I tried to watch his show (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Important_Things_with_Demetri_Martin)tonight and wow, what a piece of shit.

I disagree. I watched it once, and I found it to be remotely funny.

Agree to disagree. I actually think he's pretty funny. A lot of his stuff is hit or miss, and I admit I've seen a couple clips from his show that left me saying "That didn't work." But on the whole, I think he's a pretty solid comic, and his I dig his standup.
Now the retard on the show next to his is fucking unspeakably unfunny. (Sarah Silverman) One of the most painfully unfunny people alive.

I defy you to name a time when Sarah Silverman was funny.

can't comment on his stand-up since I don't recall ever seeing his routine
as for silverman I agree that she's not funny, IMO what gets her attention is that she's a rarity among women comics......she's not fugly, fat or a dyke (the normal trifecta for chicks in comedy) which makes her stand out

I liked the dude on TDS, but the bits and pieces I've seen of his solo show never compelled me to watch more.
P.S. Are the buttons (bold, italic, smilies, etc) on the reply window broken for anyone else?

Fix me!!!!!
Besides the buttons, the text on the Enlarge Picture bar is missing.
Reinstalled Firefox. Seems to be working now.
DM? More like: BM!
Seriously though, I really like his comedy style. I am also a huge fan of his co-star Jon K. Benjamin (McGuirk from Home Movies).

Yah I don't mind his stuff at all, minus a missed skit here and there. And H Jon Benjamin is nothing short of awesome. His work on Lucy Daughter of the Devil, ATHF and Dr. Katz, well, is fucking fantastic.
My bad, H Jon... not Jon K... Confusing one cartoon guy with the other.

He can be funny at times, but as a whole I don't like him.

I enjoy his show. As others have said, there are skits that are hit or miss, but overall, I'm a fan.
I think of DM as the new, "Kids in the Hall." KITH was hilarious, but hit or miss.

i think thats a bit of a leap there. KITH has become a cult classic.....DM will never be that. his show will run its course and eventually be forgotten about.....KITH has influenced and inspired a number of acts/shows and comedians in general. DM is just kind of there.

I agree with OP, not a fan of his. I've seen some funny skits of his, but overall I think he's pretty overrated and not my style.

I turned it off after a minute or so. Really lame jokes, and not very original either
