	Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn was a comedic talk show on Comedy Central which borrowed heavily in premise and format from a previous Comedy Central production, Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher.
		Due to the show airing while America was still reacting to and coping with the terror attacks of September 11, crowds were likely more receptive to the kind of humor that Quinn was using on the show.
		After placing Tough Crowd on hiatus, Comedy Central attempted to fill the vacant timeslot with various programs, including Too Late with Adam Carolla, The Graham Norton Effect, Wanda Does It, and repeats of The Daily Show and Chappelle's Show – all of which were met with limited success.

	Laurie Kilmartin: This Week's Hoax
		On the last show, Colin thanked everyone on the staff for being nice, and someone else pointed out that at Tough Crowd, there wasn't the political maneuvering that plagues most tv shows, and everyone who'd worked on other shows nodded.
		And the writing was hard- the best jokes for Tough Crowd were jokes that encapsulated your real point of view on each topic.
		You could misfire all night, and watch helplessly as every setup was stepped on and beaten down before your punchline even rang the doorbell, but you could still end on a laugh with a good Act 4.

	Tough Crowd - Contractor Talk - Professional Construction and Remodeling Forum
		Oft-times, - - there are several different methods that work, - - none particularly more right or wrong than the other, - - yet the 'banter' it produces gives a great insight to all the pros and cons of each, - - and then leaves the 'learners' some ample ammunition to form their own opinions.
		Being supposedly 'afraid of the tough crowd' seems to me to be more of a sign of underconfidence and/or lack of knowledge than a case of some 'multitude' of mean contractors.
		I submit that a greater influx of complaints of a 'tough crowd', - - is not proportionate to the 'toughness' of the crowd, - - but to the increase of the population.

		The real test for this will be if the fans on cringehumor.net (who organized a Save Tough Crowd campaign which I now suppose kinda succeeded) embrace it.
		He mentions Greg Giraldo's audience warmup request to not hear that the show's just "a second rate Tough Crowd." Patrick promptly calls it "Tough Crowd lite." He waxes quite a bit about the show is pretty tight and rehearsed as opposed to the anything-could-happen nature of Quinn's show.
		Tough Crowd itself became too much about watching the comedians crack on each other rather than the day's events.

	Tampabay: Tough crowd reviews Taser policy
		Harmon said he assembled a stack of research about a foot tall before deciding Tasers would be an asset - possibly reducing officer and suspect injuries and providing officers an alternative to deadly force when dealing with the mentally ill.
		Jon Thogmartin, Pinellas-Pasco medical examiner, told the crowd that it was a medical fact that the Taser alone would not kill.
		But, he said, Tasers can contribute to a death in numerous ways: Someone falls after being hit and smashes his head, the equipment malfunctions, or an officer abuses the Taser and delivers a prolonged shock.

	Pye in the Face: For The Love Of Quinn: SAVE TOUGH CROWD! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		A lot of people saw and commented - via blog or IM/e-mail - on my post last week regarding the cancellation of Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn.
		An associate of frequent Tough Crowd guest Jim Norton and the related website CringeHumor.net, was one of the people who found my article on Google and contacted me. Yesterday he IM'd me again to let me know about a new site which I wanted to pass along to anyone who cares.
		Tough Crowd is being cancelled because it loses too much of the audience which watches the show preceding it: the formerly-hilarious-and-currently-partisan-but-always-reprehensible Daily Show with it's host Jon Stewart (who isn't fit to sniff Tucker Carlson's bicycle seat).

		Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn Review on STUFF MAGAZINE DOT COM
		Tough Crowd is just a Politically Incorrect rip-off with funnier guests and a host that doesn’t makes us want to stab our eyes out with botulism-laced ice picks.
		It rounds up four comedians and Colin Quinn for 30 minutes—well, more like 12 minutes if you don’t count the bumbling monologue, commercials and horrible “comedy” bits—of informal competition on who can best combine commentary on current issues with snarky put-downs.

		But Kerry and the other Alpha candidates dutifully showed up on Sunday night in Detroit for the latest debate, the fifth since September.
