It is a bit weird. I dont know the reasons, maybe they have another format waiting in the wings. HIGNFY is still super popular too, and radio satire shows.
9:52 classic mock the week, someone messes up, hugh makes a silly pun about it, milton comes in with an unrelated pun, and acaster goes off on a tangent of absurdism and oversimplification, with kumar accelerating the satire, wrapped up with dara joke surfing back to the original premise before moving on to the next bit
@@MxMattyB Nah, I'm French and Parisian and this joke made me laugh. I love dark humor and even we Parisians know that a lot of us are just unbearable. edit: important note, if anything it would be xenophobia not racism. Racism comes from a group in a position of power and is directed towards a less powerful minority so the term simply could not apply here. So Matthew's quote is right "it's not racist if it's about the French!".
@@kerlyenai i used the term "anti-French racism" to jokingly allude to the early episodes of mock the week when frankie boyle would talk about racism against scots, and of course the very first episode when John Oliver took a principled stand against anti-French racism lol. more classic MtW
@@MxMattyB Oh yeah, no worries, I wasn't upset. Just thought it was an opportunity to talk about the distinction between racism and xenophobia. Also, I enjoy when Brits mock the French cos' they're usually spot on!
as it's the final episodes it was nice of James to do the callback to a joke of his from a previous episode whilst also shouting out Frankie Boyle and Ed Gamble.
Hilarious show this week. They were all in fine form! (And I love watching Nish's reactions to other comedians' jokes. You can tell it's a good one when he's keeled over laughing. Such contagious joy!)
Im going to miss Milton's bizarre comments that catches everyone off guard! This show was unique in that it allowed so many varied comedians to simply riff off one another creating very unique directions of jokes
If I had known there was an online vote to SAVE MOCK THE WEEK I would have signed it (along with all my other personalities). It can't end. I am in Australia and I need Mock The Week on CZcams (because we don't get it on TV) to exist. Please....fight to stay guys.
This was the funniest I've seen Milton Jones on this to date. I'm from the USA so hadn't heard this is ending. Is it true? Shows like this have kept me sane the last 2 years!
With everything happening the Tories would be hearing about their shortfalls too often for their liking. Its just the way the Right is handling the situation (after being in leadership for the last 12 years and creating the mess)
How can anyone end this greatness? We will have to binge watch all the episodes from the rapidly aging past... But they will be eternally fresh... Thanks for the endless enjoyment 😘
When is it ending? I can only presume, at the end of the series, however many more there will be, I don't know. It's genuinely upsetting. I'd also, forgotten about it happening so, I was in ignorant bliss...
Probably some suits saying "We've already got a topical panel show about the news and current events, why do we need another one?", not realising that the two have differing audiences. Plus, a lot of the focus is on the stand up elements, which does have something of a sell by date, so it's loses a lot of its repeat value because of that; even if dated material still has a nostalgic appeal to look back on, the stand up tends to be assembled into compilations a lot easier. And whilst I wasn't the biggest fan of him, I hope the finale has Frankie Boyle on for one last hurrah, if just to keep the old fans who liked him happy.
Beyond gutted Mock the Week is ending its still by far one of the only reasons to turn the TV on due to the rapport between everyone and the genuine brilliant humour, gonna miss waiting for new episodes and will be re watching all the previous series online! Thank you all for all the laughs xxx
@@BumMcFluff It was as funny as Nish Kumar 🙂 Very weak to play the "people can't tell the difference" card when everybody, including TV commissioners, is very well aware of the glaring difference between personable comedian Romesh Ranganathan and whatever Nish Kumar is.
Given this is the final season of Mock the Week, could you imagine if they managed to get David, Andy, Russell and (by some miracle) Frankie back for the final episode? I know, wishful thinking. But, could you imagine?
I *think* I'm getting the tone right from James in this episode with the references, he does still indeed like Frankie and he's being genuine, right? because I know there are some comics James has been a little open about not being too crazy about them. it is a little harder to keep up with that kinda now since James ditched social media (why he's probably the smartest one of us all)
Milton Jones has a grasp of the English language that is out of this world. He's a fascinating character. Maybe not as funny as others but you still hang on his every word
James Acaster "why would I buy other currencies, I've got a pound" is really funny to me, considering that was an actual argument used by the head of the economics department in my country to make people believe the dollar's price didn't matter.
this is easily one of my favourite Brit comedy shows, I can't believe it's ending. Introduced me to many a fine comedian, including but not limited to Frankie Boyle, Ed Byrne, Milton Jones, James Acaster, David Mitchell, Andy Parsons, Hugh Dennis etc
@@Preussenpenner No he isn't. I think people just pretend not to like him now because of his politics: his own shows are about politics, whereas on MTW he would always be the one to change the subject away from it.
Last episode of Mock the Week would feature Andy Parsons, Ed Byrne, and Russell Howard; Frankie Boyle, Hugh Dennis, and Stewart Francis and yes, one can dream
@@stonehengemaca Literally a couple of days ago the Mirror published an article about Kwasi Kwarteng with a picture of a completely different black guy on it. He's joking about it because people still do it
@@ColinGLogan Any topic has comedic potential if structured cleverly but Nish doesn't bother. He just says the equivalent of, "I'm brown and white people are stupid racists." Now laugh or your racist. It's lazy and frankly not funny. You can't tell me that was a laugh out loud moment for you. As for your example. It makes more sense if that's what he was referring to but then why not directly say the Mirror can't tell the difference? I don't appreciate the rhetoric that racists are white people as if white people hold a monopoly on racism because that in itself is racist 🤷♂
The humour is what we need in a world that’s turned upside down. It’s one show that makes light of this crap world we are living in and I am very upset at the show being cancelled. 😡

‘What do you mean it’s my final show?”
”I just decided. What category would you like?”
“Betrayal?”

Not in spirit, anyway. We all have otherwise in the last few years, I'm sorry to say...
It's called hair dye and make up. Essentially he's a woman.
@@quigonlynn1 jealous much?
Ed and Dara's friendship do wonders for each other
He does look old look at his neck
I wish there were more episodes with James and Milton in so we can watch them subconsciously try to out-weird each other
Nish just genuinely laughing at his friend is so pure and wholesome.
He just knew where james was going and let him go.
it's the best!
@@just-tess They are both utterly unfunny and have ultimately led to the shows demise.
@@rclarkebeckett603 I'm so sorry that you were separated from your sense of humor at birth

Is it, 'How many knives are in my back?'

You think they might revive it later on?
Date will buy it.
It's a refugee camp for comedians that annoy the government
And yet guff like HIGNFY, a show that is seriously well past its sell-by-date, still keeps going...
Don't worry about it. Dave will be playing repeats long into your pension years, so it'll be fine :)
@@eddief32 at 25 in canada, im not sure thats true lol I assume Dave is a rerun oasis in the uk?
"started making it, had a breakdown, bon apetit!" poor James. it still haunts him 💀
have you seen his standup bit about it? he was truly traumatized ❤🩹
“It was all a blur; I mainly know it through memes” is GOATED. Acaster never disappoints (Unless you’re Paul and Prue)
To be fair, I don’t think Paul and Prue were disappointed at all. They got exactly what they should have been expecting.
as it's the final episodes it was nice of James to do the callback to a joke of his from a previous episode whilst also shouting out Frankie Boyle and Ed Gamble.
Hilarious show this week. They were all in fine form! (And I love watching Nish's reactions to other comedians' jokes. You can tell it's a good one when he's keeled over laughing. Such contagious joy!)
My theory is Nish does this show mostly so he can enjoy the other comedians.
My alternate theory is Nish dies the show because not a lot of other shows accept his racist comments.
Im going to miss Milton's bizarre comments that catches everyone off guard! This show was unique in that it allowed so many varied comedians to simply riff off one another creating very unique directions of jokes
Milton Jones is my all-time favorite. The way he comes with puns and one-liners is incredible. I wish I could be as talented as Milton Jones.

5

Such a shame that Mock The Week is coming to an end. 😢
British pollies are increasingly self-destructive. You cannot make comedy about total clowns
Yes but as said in Dr Who and I know I'm getting the exact quote wrong. Things must end for other things to begin...
They announced it before the Queen died, it's almost like she knew they would Destroy King Charles so she stayed on until it was safe.
Wait-what??!
need more seasions 💉
I'm gonna miss this show so much. As an American, it's been a great way to understand British politics and current events, plus the great comedy.
I guess it's just HIGNFY now
If you can understand British politics at the moment, could you explain it to me please? Because us Brits have no idea what is going on.

They cant cancel this show. Where am i gonna see Hugh Dennis constantly now
Is he still on Lee Mack’s sitcom?
How did Dara pass up the opportunity?
When Milton said "what do you mean its my last show?" The obvious answer was "to be honest, Ive let you go."

Milton Jones has a grasp of the English language that is out of this world. He's a fascinating character. Maybe not as funny as others but you still hang on his every word
