  1. Any comedy awards that nominate terrible, insulting, unfunny shows like Hotbox and Little Mosque…. I refuse to pay any attention to. Nice to see Less Than Kind nominated that show is awesome.

  2. Yeah Little Mosque blows goat arse and Hotbox is one of the worst shows I’ve ever seen and it is nominated like three times? Screw that that show sucks.
