Iranian of the Day

Sad

It just feels like the same old jokes, but delivered poorly. Even Maz Jobrani is getting old. Has Omid Djalili been featured, yet? He should be, obviously. And there's this new guy named Pardis Parker who's not bad - http://youtube.com/watch?v=h2tMmwSSGIo

It's tough, though, because I don't think we want to encourage bad comedy, and I think we're doing just that by giving this Kharazzi guy so much attention when he's not fully matured as a performer. He might one day, and we all hope he does, but he's not there, yet.

He's not bad

I thought he was funny. He's new so he'll get better and better but I found it funny.

He is doing well

He is trying to create his own style, his own funny character. It's gonna take some time to suit in that well. His jokes were funny; the only thing that made it less funny was that he didn't look funny. I mean if he didn't speak, I would have thought of him as some PhD student. He has to choose good attire and maybe a different haircut. The way that a comedian talk, tone of voice, mimics, dressing, etc all should fit together. I think he is talented and can come up with good jokes. Just needs to correct his outlook. And you'll find him very very funny.

People actually pay to see

People actually pay to see this ?!

Pathetic, not funny at all and very obscene, and there is nothing

antisemic in my words, as I am myself an Iranian Jewish - Israeli

citizen !

It's a start!

Well, it is not about being Jewish or Moslem. This young man is simply not very talented. But this is a good start nonetheless. We should have more comedians of all persuasions, Jewish, Moslem, Bahai, Armenian, Zorostrian, and the like. This young man needs to know that perhaps he will do well if somebody else wrote his jokes. He also needs to work on a lot of other areas of his performance. I hope he does have a day job.

Marvin Kharrazi

Hello All:

I think Marvin Kharrazi is very funny, with a great deal of potential. He is young, intelligent, good looking, and still growing in his profession. We should probably check him out again in a few years to notice the changes. Already, I find him very refreshing, because he is breaking a few major taboos with his Jewish community for his career choice and the content he uses, albeit affectionately. If you watch all the 8 links which comprise his stand-up show, you will see that he has a lot of funny content and he pulls most of them off really well, making you laugh. It takes time for stage performers to settle and appear polished, as though what they are doing is effortless. I think we should recognize young performers, go see their shows whenever we can, and continue to encourage them to grow and to get better. In time, our large community will have hundreds of artists in different areas and as audiences, we will reap the benefit of choice. So, please be supportive and provide constructive criticism if you can. That's what I think.

I used to like in NYC where the Iranian Jewish population was high.

I liked all Iranians no matter what relgion.

Unfourtunatly like most Iranians outside of Iran the have become out of touch with Iran and have segerated them from other Iranis for the most part .

It is boring to me too!

I did not find it funny at all. May be he should stick to Agha Yagoub and Rashel Khanom's jokes only.

Boring...

Stick to making money.

He is funny, He is very

He is funny, He is very comfortable talking about all the sterotyps about his religion and his nationality.

I do like Jewish Iranians very much. I have had many friends back home and also in USA that are Iranian Jewish. They are very proud of being Iranian, that is more that I can say about most other Iranian.
Lets be Persian and proud

regardless of content (which was offensive), it was not funny.
