Stephen Cookson | One Liner Comedian

[mikeg]

This comedian had some great lines.

Clearly the audience had a few too.

[boycs]

As an open mic one liner comic with around 200 gigs I can tell you that Stephen is a once in a generation genius. The material is nowhere near as important as how Stephen has crafted his persona. The delivery, pauses, expressions, timing and presence are brilliant. Crafting one line gags is very difficult but every word is relevant...like adding 'basic' to the stool gag giving it the perfect ending. For me, Stephen is up there with Stewart Francis and Gary Delaney and I wish him the success he deserves.

Audience:

[FatNorthernBigot]

I love one liner comedy... It's hard work, and the audience gets their moneys worth. This guy really nailed it.

[steve-bkqd]

His delivery and demeanour are is why he is funny..

[stumpynadge]

So this is what happened to the old audiences from Friends and Frasier.

[thebeardedtattoo]

I think they pumped laughing gas through the vents of the building!

[philiphicks]

It’s lovely when your whole family shows up to the gig.

[gial]

What kind of brownies did they feed the audience? muy gawd

[tdyerwestfield]

This guy's delivery is excellent and he has some great lines. Certainly a comic's dream audience.

[markduncan]

It’s not whether the audience laugh, it’s whether it’s funny. I laughed out loud. Very good.

[jsensei]

His stoicism and believability had the crowd.

[lytnin]

It's amazing how he's able to keep a straight face.

[fishwatch]

I see the YouTube comedians are selflessly patrolling the comments sections maintaining audience difficulty standards.

[mpdsure]

This guy has perfect material, timing & audience. Super Funny.

[ivorscrotumic]

Oh my, never heard of this guy before. It's pure gold. Will have to watch out for him & pop down to HWCC when he's on.

[Charlienmeg]

Deadpan delivery and a funny man. What more could you ask for.

[marshallmatters]

Some of these one liners are genius. Great comedian. And a perfect crowd to be honest, he even tells them they're mental and they laugh. Makes even better viewing.

[stevet]

That audience was a gift and he took charge like a champ. Damned funny!

[CBCB]

I have to say, the first time I ever seen this, I was in stitches. The jokes are funny but it’s his face and his delivery and the long pauses that makes it. 😂
