Let Wanjiko give it a try. If she succeeds well and good, if she doesn't she can always say she tried. I saw her perform at the recent KU graduation and judging from the reaction of that crowd they were impressed, and she must have made some good cash. I presume she will also be having a host of other comedians just like churchill.
I remember when Churchill show started and comments were being made that Kingangi should have stuck to radio since TV comedy is unlike radio comedy.

She even snatched her best girlfriend's huzzy and turned him to be her "huzzy". ! Actually its the other way round, she was the first girlfriend before the other these people got paged, and claimed the first spot. Its all good.

Hata kama ni mimi, I'd rather die than given them that. Thats stupidity from the Laugh Inda. NKT. Its like your father.mother in law comes to you 30 years later when your daughter (Lupita) has been nominated for Oscar and is now famous.  Portfolio: Sold

What JB has alleged just like the story of June Ruto is just but a rumour, the other side said that money got into her head!!!!! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

stand-up comedy is one of the riskiest jobs on the planet. as Tony Njuguna once summed it up - you need to make your audience giggle/chuckle or even laugh every 6 seconds! no one is that
smart to keep the jokes flowing week after week after week for 3 minutes let alone one whole program with exception of jokes in the following thematic areas
- sexual jokes
- tribal jokes (sterotyping)
- men vs women jokes
- jokes about how we grew up
I actually think Eric Omondi is a very very talented comedian - very sharp and a person who is able to generate jokes but yeye mwenyewe alishindwa na program yake...itakuwa mwalimu wanjiku?
My advice for any upcoming stand-up comedians - look at this as a way to make quick cash as you plot your exit. make people laugh and ask for huge sums when you get adverts when people still giggle at your jokes. Make hay when the sun shines as for sure as the sun sets in the west - your jokes will dry up, you will be come predictable and you will fade into oblivion (unless you become like Churchill where you look for talent and MC their performances - Mining the miners).
situational comedy is a much better (it can give you longevity - its less risky as you don't crack jokes before an audience, there can be preparations made in advance if your jokes don't fly e.t.c. plus there is that recording that laughs at your jokes). it can source its laughter from witty jokes, cluelessness and even physical comedy.
physical comedy is like what jim carrey generally does, Ojwang e.t.c. - if you find these actions funny it is likely that you will still find them funny next week even when you know what is going to happen. sitcoms can incorporate this to make their works. i think slapstick can also be considered as part of physical comedy. I have learnt a few things here I must admit. making people laugh week after week after week is difficult stuff.... just ask "smart joker" All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

It is a challenge to her as a performing artist. Ours n as an audience/critics n fans alike is to point out the pros n cons n hers is to improvise on her persona on the stage. Nothing really wrong with that or is thr anythn wrong intht? Illmatic
