I'd say there probably is a formula with comedy as far as timing and a whole lot of other intangibles we as non-comedians don't pay attention to. We all know funny *** dudes in regular life situations who probably would be trash if told to get on a stage and make people laugh.
But Kevin has made me laugh a few times in his standups.
I think a lot of people's problem with Hart is that his humor is very elementary and juvenile, he stays away from race and politics, and he really has no social content/humor in his routine the way a Katt Williams/Chris Rock/Dave Chappelle does. His shtick is "look at me I'm small and move a lot". But that's what got him in movies so he won.

It didn't come from Friday. That's been his shtick since he was doing standup in the mid to late 90s.How come Katt Williams never gets any slander? Dude has solely been living off his pimp gimmick in Friday

I think you just nailed it.
Not that I mind, but KH's humor is mostly based on us laughing at HIM and not any clever observations or commentary that he makes. Where as with other big names, sure they let you laugh at them a little, but not to the degree that they become clowns.
I think where he's losing some of his ability to milk the whole look at me I'm short and a wimp gimmick, is he's buff now. It's just not as believable anymore.

Katt Williams was funny once upon a time, but arrest and doing the same routine show after show killed his career.
I agree. It was funny to hear non-funny Mike Epps talk about him.
I have no clue what you're trying to say

Mike Epps stand up is not funny. Dude is hilarious on sketches and movies but his stand up is bad. I watched his latest one and chuckled once. Now Chris Rock is a bad mfer.

They would never give Katt his own show. He too real. It would make middle America uncomfortable. Dave ain't wanna be a puppet that's why he turned down all that bread. Richard Pryor had a show and it got pulled cuz he started dropping some knowledge with the comedy.

Epps stand up funny as hell, he just need new material. He been telling the same jokes in different ways since the 90s

Well he should've changed it 10 years ago, possibly more

I said it on another site but comedians and fans don't like happy comedians
I only know of 2 comedians that seem to be truly happy and they are Dane Cook and Kevin Hart
Both were equally hated and both were equally powerful and popular at their peaks
Comedians are generally depressed or feel like everything is against them and I guess the positivity annoys them
That's my theory

That new Mike Epps stand-up on Netflix was pure struggle for a good 20 to 30 minutes. And he does recycle his jokes. He got it together after the struggle opening though.

I get so tired of Mike Epps doing that **** he did in All About The Benjamins. That **** he did when he was giving the cashier the lottery numbers. It's so old

Katt Williams is like Eddie Griffin to me. I thought both would be bigger. I thought both were funny, but their careers sort of stalled. I'm not sure if it's the limitations of not being a mainstream black comedian.
This is blasphemy

I never thought about this
but I feel like what homie earlier said is true about Kevin Hart isn't the typical black comedian who followed after Richard and Eddie. That's probably helped him become successful, because he is different. I always thought Kevin was like a dirty Bill Cosby.
He needs to stop being Sam Jackson with the movie roles and be more selective.

About Last Night was Kevin Hart at his best, wedding ringer and ride along 1 are solid
the other movies with him starring are not that good
