Um, they’ve been doing rude, derogatory, slapstick humor for a very long time. Scatalogical humor has been around a lot longer than television. In fact, it was the advent of television and censors that toned down much of standup.
My wife and I occasionally attend a local “comedy club” event, and occasionally leave before the main act is finished!
It’s not that we don’t enjoy the occasional “naughty story” or “dirty joke”; but we just don’t understand why some “comedians”, and I use this term loosely, have to punctuate every line with a four letter word!
We are not prudes; we know exactly what the words mean! It’s just we don’t need to hear them every few seconds during the show!

No derogatory humor? I guess this isn’t Letterman’s next gig, then…

I hereby reserve comment on the “Comedy Specials” of the day. Sounds more like a morse code lesson with all the “urban language” bleeping going on..

Good! If more comedians did this often, the decrease in vulgarity would drop dramatically!
