Last night Denis and I got to watch Tuesday’s edition of “Last Comic Standing” and I can’t tell you how pleased I am that Jay London got the boot. Yes, I know he’s a nice man, if a bit weird, but HE’S NOT FUNNY. And the audience rightly voted Gary Gulman to go forward another week (89% of the vote!). I loved Gary Gulman’s routine – what’s great about him is that he talks about stuff we ALL experienced – anyone in their late 20s to early 40s, which, let’s face it – is the main audience at a comedy club anyway.

Jay London is funny and I thought he should have won.
I Agree with Tina, Jay is funny. Jay is not your normal comedian, he is more in the vain of Stephen Wright. He is a comedian that makes you think and laugh about those things that most people would not have thought about. “I work at Bed Bath & Beyond” “I work in the Beyond section”. This is classic… Jaynee is correct a comedian like Gary does appeal to the masses because he sounds like every other comedian out there. It takes real talent to be different and funny.
I agree totally with the one speaking above.
I think he’s a great and “outstanding” comedian!
I wanted Jay to win before even watching Last Comic Standing – just from his one line during the previews – I buy my hair products at Petco!
I love him!!!!!
I, too, just fell in love with Jay London. Does ANYONE out there know if he has a fan club or how to reach him? Thanks, Mary
He was so close to winning I thought he would. WHY IS TAMMY PESCATELLI SO MEAN?!?! She was the one who started getting people to vote for him. I DEFINATELY will not vote for her this week.
Anxious to see tonight’s episode and see who gets voted to come back – if I understand that correctly. Has anyone figured out yet how to reach Jay London – or if he has a web-site? He is indeed a creative wit and I hope people realize that!
Mary
I as well think Jay London is a great comedian. He has that look to him that just makes him stand out. I had voted for him nine times tonight. Cell, home phone, and online. I tried to get my mom too also but she wouldnt…she doesnt like him and i have no idea why. I just really hope that he gets sent back into the final six. i would hate to see him leave the show. It is not the same without him. I would also like to know how to get ahold of him
I agree with anyone Jay Rocks.. Tammy is mean and full of one joke, my family is in the mob,,, yeah yeah yeah.. Here is an idea register for a yahoo account in another screen name and vote for jay that way!!! You can have as many account with Yahoo as you want they just have to be different screen names! I voted like 50 times….. Lets keep Jay IN!

Thank you, Mark Bowman, for the info on Jay’s web site. He is such a precious soul and I’ve added “Meet Jay London” to my list of things to do before I get TOOO old. Thanks again. Mary
Jay London is the funniest man I have heard of in a VERY long time, he dosen’t need to swear,take about this penis,or how good he is ..Jay is Honest and down to earth. We laughed so hard last night that Jay had us in tears …Favroit classic line is …” I bought my girlfriend fish net stocking” …She has Crabs … ..OH, and as far as Tammy is concerned, she’s better then Cathy and Bonnie put together ….. Thank you
Ya man, jay seems like a real kool and nice guy to meet, He is just the most unique characteristic comedian out there is. He thinks of jokes that I would have never thought, Is there a list of all his jokes on some website?
I went to join the Army and told them I can be all that I can be, they said it wasn’t enough. Thank You
HOLY CRAP! I GOT JAY’S PHONE NUMBER AND ADDRESS! I couldn’t believe how easy it was to get it. If you don’t believe the address that I post is real then just check *source deleted*. If you’ve visited the LCS website at NBC then you know he lives in Los Angeles. So he’s the only Jay London there. His number is 323-***.****. I haven’t tried because my parents won’t let me but if someone wants to try they can go ahead. His address is: Jay London
*address deleted*
I hope this helps anyone in need. I’m almost 100% sure that this is real. If you don’t believe me check *source* yourself. I do this for a lot of famous people. There are a few on there. GOOD LUCK CONTACTING JAY!
P.S. I voted for him three times last night too!
This is your webmaster. I have taken the liberty of deleting what was potentially Jay London’s personal information. To invade someone’s privacy like that is unconscionable and will not be tolerated at this website or any others owned by me.
JayRocks – if you do it again, I’ll have to ban your IP from the website. I’m glad you are a fan, but be respectful – don’t publish a private citizen’s public information on this or any other website.
I’m sorry. I thought people would want to at least send him a letter or something. I guess not. Well, I just wanted to apologize to Jaynee and all the other posters out there. I especially want to apologize to Jay for trying to give out personal info. I know I wouldn’t like it if someone did that to me. I can’t express how sorry I am. I was just so excited to have found the information that I thought others would want to know too. SORRY!
Thanks for the apology, JayRocks – it is much appreciated!
I am so happy that Jay London won tonight I really feel that he is a very intelligent comedian. Some people don’t like him and think that he is dry I think that he makes a person think about what he saids and it is funny. I saw a stationary store move, that is comedy. I hope that he makes it big because he deserves it so much. I will always be a big fan of his.
Jay London you rock and I would pay to see you anyday. Can’t wait to see you here in Las Vegas.
Good luck in all you do.
Jay London is an excellent comedian. One of my favorite phrases from him is this: “Do you think the Motel 6 in Amish country keeps their light on?” He cracks me up so much that I’m still laughing five minutes later after he gives his funny stuff. Jay rocks and he deserves to win!!!
Did Jay London win last night I could not watch it??
Hello this is your webmaster here. While I appreciate all the comments at Cootiehog, let me remind you that if you go to my main page on this blog, http://www.cootiehog.com , you can find much more than this single post on Jay London. In fact, just today, July 30, I wrote something about him.
My husband and I LOVE Jay London. He’s by far the best comedian on the show. The most unassuming too I might add. I’M SO GLAD HE’S BACK IN THE HOUSE.YOU GO JAY!!!
CyndiUSA
P.S. The link that Jaynee posted just gives me an error and I can’t access it. Maybe it’s just me.
Okay. Well I made it onto your main page. Just a friendly warning to the Jay London fans out there. Jaynee’s “comment today” about Jay was not favorable towards Jay. Hardly worth the effort if you’re looking for a more like minded opinion of Jay. Anyway, to each his own. I find Todd’s humor childish and Ant’s humor old. As far as “family friendly comedians” go, I definitely would NOT catagorize Ant’s humor as such. I mean please, “A manwich is a meal…”
Cyndi, of course my comments about Jay London aren’t favorable – I don’t find him funny. That’s how this comment thread started. Maybe you should take the time to read the post that all these people are commenting on. I realize those of you coming here from the websearches are taken directly to the comment thread as opposed to the main website which the comments are on, so I’ll help you out – click on the above link and do a search for Jay London’s name – you’ll find at least 3-4 posts I’ve made FROM THE BEGINNING about how I don’t think Jay is funny.
You all can disagree, but I’m making a concerted effort to make sure he is booted QUICKLY from the top six – he doesn’t deserve to be there.
Here’s the direct link to the post that these comments are based on:
http://www.cootiehog.com/archives/001658.html
Like I said. To each his own. I for one (and apparently I’m not the only one) think his humor is brilliant. It takes REAL talent to pull off that many oneliners and be creative in the process. I mean take Ant for instance, his last performance before he was sent packing was a wapping TWO whole jokes in the entire segment. And, they weren’t even good ones. Good luck in your concerted effort. It’s obviously paying off! WELCOME BACK JAY!!
Me and my son LOOOOOVE Jay London. My son has a form of autism. My son also loves to draw. He is a funny “artistic” . I’m so sorry Jay, we forgot to vote… but guess what, you won the Wild Card anyways! WE WANT A FAN CLUB !!!(and we don’t mean a sandwich made for Jay-lovers…thank you š
Look everyone, if you’re like me and like Jay’s jokes, then go to http://www.jaylondonlive.com and post on his message boards. Apparently, he checks them from time to time too. There aren’t many people signed in to be on the message boards so your comments will definately be heard. By the way, if you didn’t know or didn’t figure it out by what I said before, that’s his official website.
Hooray for Jay!
Looking forward to seeing Jay star in an offshoot of the sitcom “Just Shoot Me!” called “Please Like Me?”.
Clue: Just because Gary Gulman is good looking does NOT MEAN HE’S FUNNY! Oh gee, they replaced blowing out candles with those snuffers. That had me rolling on the floor — NOT!! Oh, and I can make that noise that my mom makes when I’m driving. Hmm, sounds like what Dat Phan did and HE was not phunny.
Speaking of Dat Phan – What ever did happen to him anyway? He just seemed to fall off the face of the earth.
If there is justice in the world and people actually vote for the IQ instead of the GQ factor, Alonzo and Jay will be the last 2 comics standing. And we all know who will win that battle.
Thank you!
I really think that both Jay London and Tammy Pescatelli are funny, but If I had to choose just one to win I would choose Jay London.
I agree jay london is funny and unique but the thing I like most is his honesty, I mean he’s asking audience to give him a beat down and he’s saying it wouldn’t take long for him to finish, lol hahahaha ….. I think he should be able to win the wild card, hope he does. Does anyone knows what the result is???
“My doctor just told me I won the Wild Card. I asked him how much I could get for it on EBay?”
— dyssie, in a tribute to Jay London
Tommy Hui, the winner of the Wild Card was announced last Thursday night on a special episode of Last Comic Standing. Jay London did win. Todd Glass finished 2nd, Ant was 3rd, Corey was 4th and Bonnie was last.
either you like him because he is hilarious, or you hate him cuz you are jealous
either you like him because he is hilarious, or you hate him cuz you are jealous
didn’t scroll down enough to see it…Please hit “Post” only one time. Even if it takes more than 15 seconds to go through – DO NOT HIT “POST” MORE THAN ONCE!

He is funny, and look at him now. He got the Wild Card. I am watching right now, I hope he wins! :} {I voted for him 12 times for Wildcard}
Jay should win. He’s the funniest by far!!
LOOKS LIKE ‘OL JAY GOT THE LAST LAUGH ON YOU!
I KNOW WHO WON THE LAST COMPETITION!
#1) GARY GULMAN
#2) ALONZO BODDEN
#3) JAY LONDON
I’m 90% sure this is the order based on some information I just found!
As you by now know, Jay London did NOT make the final three. The top three were: Gary Gulman, Jon Heffron and Alonzo Bodden. I couldn’t be happier.
As Jaynee said above,generic comedians like Gary G. appeal to the masses with their “relate to” type of comedy.But if you ask me this isn’t really comedy.That’s why a comic like Jay L.is funny.It’s all about the joke.His material is cerebral funny and you have to take it for what it is.Most comedians story tell to get laughs,while if you can get someone to laugh at one liners,that’s good.His approach is good too.
I agree with everyone, Jay London is awesome. Although I thought several of the others were pretty funny as well, I wanted Jay to win as soon as I saw him and heard the “I buy all my hair care products at Petco” joke. It’s great that he even makes fun of himself in his jokes, and the fact that he’s got such a different style/wit is awesome. I’m sure we’ll see him around again. Matter of factly, isn’t the next “Last Comic Standing” supposed to be the people from this season vs. the last?
Jay London is GREAT. I only hope that some producer will cast him in a TV show. That would be somethin’ !!
Nope, sorry – can’t agree with you Jaynee.
Gary Gulman is quite good – but he’s basically at
the top of his game right now. It’s like he
was genetically engineered for a sitcom.
Jay London has the most potential of the
comics on that show — he’s just in the beginning
stages of his career – his act lacks polish…
but you can see something there that is
coming out. He’s in the same class as
Mitch Hedberg, Stephan Wright, and
Henny Youngman… very sticcato delivery,
very clever, very satirical.
I think he’ll go far, frankly, and television
may not be his medium…
…”thank you.”
Jay might have got the boot, but look for some producer to pick him up for a movie contract.
In 2 years he will be making a 7 figure payday.
Good luck to you Jay London !

Jay London isn’t exactly new to the scene, cosmology_guy…I’ve seen him on TV and at comedy clubs for AT LEAST the last 2 years.
Anyway, he immediately became my favorite comedian and still is to this day. I hope he goes far in his career and that people will learn to appreciate his brilliant humor.
Jay is old school comedy. Like jack benny, and bob hope. He is very talented, and will go far. He is a very humble man, I’ve met him personally.If you like what you see on t.v. you, will love what you see in person. He’s a real gem.
I think Jay London’s very funny and he’s just a terrific guy. He has a genuine humility that you don’t see very often in show business. His routine isn’t run of the mill. It’s hard for some people to relate to him because he’s pretty bright and his humor seems to go over lots of people’s heads. I was very dissappointed that he didn’t make it to the three finalist in Last Comic Standing. There are very few people I’d really want to meet, but Jay’s probably one that I would really enjoy talking to.
Jay’s one liners are hilarious and intelligent. Jay has a bright light around him every time he performs. I voted for him 5 times! I hope something good will come out of this for him. He’s an excellent comedian on all accounts.
On the other hand, Gary Gulman is kind’a funny, but he’s not great. People just vote for him because he’s sexy, just like they did with Dat Phan. Anyway, I think Alonzo will win. He’s a very, very intelligent comedian. John Heffron has a good shot too with his wild performances.
I voted for Jay three times and knew immediately he wouldn’t win. I got through way to easily on the phone (I’m sure that some other people may have noticed too). Anyway, I plan to vote for John Heffron next week. I’ve seen him on other shows and he’s very funny.
JAY IS THE FUNNIEST PERSON ON THE SHOW! NO ONE ELSE DESERVES TO WIN! JAY WILL GET A GIG ANYWHERE HE WANTS! HES THAT DAMN FUNNY
I didn’t know who was gonna win that they’re my
two favs. And yes, Jay is funny. Infact, he’s
a freakin’ genius. I don’t think Gary is typical
either. Both of them weren’t afraid to get up
there and try new material, which is why they
didn’t win in the end, sadly, because you can’t
really know what people like until you try it
and you don’t deliver something perfectly the first time you do it infront of an audience.
