Mr. Alafzadeh ;) More Power to you MJ..
by PERS66 on Fri Mar 12, 2010 11:14 AM PSTI think by far, this is his best work; he could be as big as Borad acting out multiple characters at the same time! He has a good feel for Iranian archetype. Mr. Alafzadeh is hilarious, I’ve seen characters like this before….;)
Hope to see him rise and shine even more.
Hilarious
by capt_ayhab on Fri Mar 12, 2010 10:40 AM PSTMaz is indeed hilarious.
I think his comedy is the best form of self-criticism we Iranian truly need.
Thanks for the post

Are you kidding? Me taking ourselves seriously?
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Fri Mar 12, 2010 10:27 AM PSTI'm a cartoon, so I don't even know what you mean by "seriously." I'm saying that these shades of Iranians don't even exist to make fun of. I've seen this in a lot of places. Iranians just end up looking stupid and it's not funny. I'm glad Maz has some fans; good for him. I just don't enjoy it. It's not meant to insult people who do.

Marge, Take it easy...
by Arthimis on Thu Mar 11, 2010 06:38 PM PSTThis is just comedy, OK. It's good not to take ourselves so seriously... Nobody else does, trust me... I agree with Kouroush on this matter. Many Iranians in L.A. and Southern California are almost exactly like "Kaami Alafzadeh" LOL. :-) They speak and bahave like this Character! There are many other Iranians who call themselves Doctor va Mohandes and ... There are some Iranians from south of Iran who can grow afros... What is so wrong to make fun of our own looks and sometimes our own nation's backwardness??? (Afterall, they revolted and brought Islamic regime and monkeys to rule everyone...)
Plus, so many other nations and races who are secure about themselves and NOW are more advanced than others, have done the same exact thing on themselves... It is a very intelligent way to inform ourselves of our own shortcomings and makes us be aware...
You haven't seen Iranian men like that before? Where have you been hiding the past 31 years!!! (That is, if you are even old enough!) And Yes, I agree with you (Khak bar saremoon) ... When you have a regime, rahbar and a monkey for President like that in Iran for 31 years...
Peace
Seriously! Was this supposed to be funny?
by Solitude on Thu Mar 11, 2010 05:51 PM PSTBecause I couldn't even MAKE myself smile, let alone laugh!
Sory & Better luck next time Maz!

by Red Wine on Thu Mar 11, 2010 04:02 PM PSTI never understood him...But God bless him !
Khakbarsaremoon whatever Marge! Don't overanalyze humor
by KouroshS on Thu Mar 11, 2010 12:04 PM PSTI don't know about you being insulated or not, but you sure don't embrace other's brand of humor. He is being absolutely honest here. Many iranians in LA talk and behave in the exact same manner.
Also, If you at least watch some comedy shows on tv, as cheap and superficial as they maybe, you would notice thatt other Minority-themed comedians poke fun with people from their background. George Lopez. Chris Rock. It is funny and realistic at the same time.
It is their bread and butter.
Jobrani at his best
by Ari Siletz on Thu Mar 11, 2010 11:45 AM PSTsorry to be Fred, but I didn't find it funny
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Thu Mar 11, 2010 11:33 AM PSTI don't think Iranians deserve this kind of caricature. We're not really that bad. Maybe I'm a bit insulated, but come on. They are typically very educated and ambitious. Who are these a-holes he is portraying?Why does one of them have an afro?! I haven't met any iranian like these men. They are funny, but if they're meant to be Iranian, I didn't see it. If there are iranians like this, khak bar saremoon ;(
Alright Mazi
by KouroshS on Thu Mar 11, 2010 11:20 AM PSTThis was Dead-a$$ Funny LOL

by Another Iran on Thu Mar 11, 2010 01:55 AM PSTWhat can I say? LOL :)

Laughed so hard at Alafzadeh! " Call me Kambi ......:0) Ohh, Sorry Aziz joon I was very bizzzy, hehehehe, Veerveer Vhite, just put Vhite, there is box for Vhite... " LOL. BRILLIANT Maz, That was just fantastic... So true with some Iranian (Italian) from L.A. (Vest vood) /Orange county.... LOL .... :0)
