I'm sure he's a nice guy, but I found myself terribly bored by his act, at least what we've been shown of it.

He's Scottish-Canadian, thats soooo cool :D

I am hoping he saved his best stuff for the finals.

As a Canuck I should support him but I've just found him boring so far. Maybe Marybethp is right and the good stuff is waiting to be seen.

I thought his set was the best last night.
I liked his observations about children in class and he held my interest better than anyone.
I really haven't enjoyed him up to this point, but I thought last night was the best I've seen him.

Ditto, fluff. I was also glad he didn't yell like he has a tendency to do.

I have to give it to Gerry again for this past week.
For me, his set was the funniest.

I really enjoyed Gerry's sets the past few weeks, but this one part still has me laughing days later:

"I don't know....I didn't see, I was dancing" imitating the girl that goes over and takes care of the upset drunk girl.

Not all that funnly taken out of context but I laughed really hard at the time, and can still hear the way he said it in my head, making me laugh all over again.

:rofl :rofl :rofl

Gerry Dee got ripped off... he was BY FAR the funniest one in the whole competition!!! He should have won!! Ah well, at least he got the world wide exposure he diserves!!
