Yesterday ended the third day of shooting of the show "Make comedian laugh", which was shot for 1+1 for the first time.

But this time, it was even uncomfortable, you watch and think: aren’t the authors ashamed of such stupid joke? … And about some (I will not say yet about whom) Zelensky just said:  well, this is a medical case.

However, many participants  due to their worries start jabbering, that you do not have time to laugh - until the meaning of the phrase comes to the viewer, participant had time to say about 15 jokes. But I was particularly impressed with performance of a guy who very quickly, without expression, sight-read such jokes: "Philip Kirkorov has got a daughter and now can legally beat a woman". That’s when you recall robot Werther: "Ha ...Ha...Ha…"

And this couple counted on sounds, not words  

However, there were good jokes, but they somehow disappeared in the general low-calorie and flat background. It is good that Zelensky and Koshevoi have a stock phrase: "It was a bit not enough to make us laugh. Just a bit…"
