When Anthony showed up hungover he was still quick and funny and could hang with Jimmy or whatever was going on.
Wrong. I see you’re a lover of Honeymooner references huh? I personally loved everytime Anthony would groggily speak into the mic or literally fall asleep on air. I loved when Ant was looking at Paltalk or his phone and wouldn’t interact, to the point where Bob Kelly called him out on it and everyone got “Antshells”. Was he hanging with Jim when Jimmy was leaving the show early to do a gig? But keep telling me how Opie was the worst one. Once again. I don’t give a shit that you worked for the show. I’ve been listening to it for almost a decade and I can confidently say i’m a better, unbiased judge on this than YOU, who hung out with the pedophile half of the show.
Opie picked his fucking nose all day.
Didn’t affect the show.
Opie made easy things hard. He made cool things lame.
Anthony never ever did any of these things. Ever. All Opie guys. Can’t think of a specific example but it’s all Opie. Always has been.
He was a shit interviewer.
Holy shit…better than “(GROVELING QUESTION ABOUT SHOW) (SELF DEPRECATING JOKE)” Norton. You think Ant was a good interviewer? This is the problem. Most of the criticisms you could level at Opie were present in all of them, and usually one of them had it the worst…and usually it WASNT OPIE. Jim was the worst with this shit.
His idea of cool and funny was forcing a burp into the mic.
Alright you have a point here.
Money Bunny anyone? Opie's Dollar? Or maybe you don't know those bits since nobody bothered putting it on YouTube.
Wow he tried bits and failed? Thats so terrible!! Now name bits Ant brought to the show. You can’t fucking do it because he didn’t. His job was to be a little monkey on a chain throwing out Goodfellas references when needed. Tries and fails vs doesn’t at all. Even fucking Jim the goddamn third mic brought bits to the show and they became the most famous. NICE TRY WITH THE HATE THO SNIFF
Are you fucking serious here? If that's your brand of humor good on you. If you're a fan of this program and truly believe Opie was the best part or at least not the worst, respect. I don't agree at all but that's on you now.
I just truly don’t get it. Maybe you don’t remember what Opie actually did for the show so let me remind everyone. Homeless Shopping Spree, WOW, poker chips, toothpick guy, uncomfortable interviews, uncomfortable phone calls, Bizzaro O&A interviews, Yakov Smirnoffs dinner adventure, Monster Rain, Tony Danza…What did Ant bring? Joe Piscopo? Nice. The Shining references? Oh man, haven’t heard this before!
Then you have the content of the show. Hm. What was worse? Opie burping into a mic, taking phone calls praising him, talking about how he “goes for the laughs”, talking about Howard, or getting sensitive…or ANOTHER racial rant, old TV reference, “””quick witty joke”””, desk slaps, repeating of jokes, inane and pointless anger…great.
