'Seth & Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show' Pokes Fun At Marlee Matlin
NOV 9, 2009 AT 09:13 AM
Honestly, I couldn't even get through the entire video. I had to stop it once Alex Borstein started to sing 'Poker Face'. I mean... who thought of this skit? Not my cup o' tea.
This video was taken from 'Seth & Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show' and also features Seth MacFarlane and Marlee Matlin. She does come out midway and starts to make fun of Alex which I suppose is suppose to make the deaf jokes better????
What do you think about the whole thing? All in good fun? Or completely offensive?

You should have finished watching it. Matlin comes out and makes fun. The humor is a little slow, but pretty funny!

I had tears in my eyes as well, but as the mother of a deaf child. My son works with a speech therapist everyday to get his voice to sound clearer so people will stop making fun of him and help the hearing world to understand him. Having Matlin on there might have made them think it was okay, but she does not speak for all of the deaf community. You must be hard up for jokes when making fun of people with dissabilities is humorous to you.

my husband and I are learning Sign Language. show was Ok, it had some funny moments, others dragged for too long. I enjoyed marlee coming out, we were watching her signs and loved when she's like "wanna learn some sign language?" "learn this" and she gave her the finger. that was hilarious!

That's Family Guy, though. They always go just that little bit too far... you either get it or you don't. In my house, we're FG devotees, watch every week. Fabulous show. THis skit was awesome.

Seth is a funny guy.
I think it was funny since Marlee can poke fun about it all. She is a brave person and I think it was all in fun. I do like family guy and I am a aunt of a child with severe speech and other delays. He comes from a strong home and with our love and support!

I didn't watch it, but my friend didn't find it funny at all. I'll try and catch it later.
OFFENDED??? If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen! I have one thing to say! If you OFFEND EASY, WTH would you watch the show to start with??? Are you also a perv on an abstinence trip getting upset about being aroused while hanging out at the strip joint? COME ON!!!
I thought it was absolutely brilliant. This is the type of humor i would expect from TV's most controversial cartoonist. The best part is watching Seth in the background about the die laughing. If its funny to him after hours of rehearsal I think its safe to say you probably needed to watch the whole thing. Fucking priceless. Wish there was more Seth and less Alex
