Diesel Hi, my name's Diesel. I run this site. I started it as a lark, because all of the other humor blog directories I found sucked. Anyway, my own humor blog is Mattress Police - Antisocial Commentary. It's listed over there on the upper right. That's what's known in the biz as a "conflict of interest." Deal with it.

Hollywood: Where Hot Comes to Die

Comic Suzy Soro's blog got a decent score from our reviewers. As one reviewer noted, "It doesn't seem like she can make up her mind about either writing a blog about a comedian, or writing a blog that's supposed to be comedy." Fans who enjoyed Suzy's "inside baseball" approach rated it higher than those who were hoping for laugh-out-loud comedy. No one seemed to mind her name-dropping, perhaps because of the self-deprecating way in which she does it.

Some quotes from our reviewers:
Come on - she's a PROfessional, people! But she's good, funny. I enjoyed the blog and the fact that she dropped Larry David's name only sent her stock up a bit in my book.

This is a professional standup comic's blog? Talking about buying surge protectors at Best Buy? I'm no pro comic, but like you say, you can see the punchline coming and I saw boring headed my way.

I realize that the writer of this blog does comedy for a living and she a gets a big tip of my hat for being able to do that while most of us just play at it - also, I don't think that the quality of her blog reflects her talent.

Yeah, it's pretty apparent from the writing that this person does/did comedy for a living. A good deal of cynicism, which doesn't make for hilarity but for some good solid reading. I think most of the material would be better delivered live than in written form, but I enjoyed my visit.

This blog shows that a stand-up comedian isn't necessarily funny in other areas (like blogging). It seems this blogger saves up all her funniness for the 60 minutes she spends on the stage.

I don't think I really really laughed at loud reading her blog, but it is solid work. The fact that she's a Hollywood celebrity allows her to delve into great anecdotes based on what she's seen and heard throughout her years in Hollywood.

There's plenty humor to be found here...although sometimes I just wished I laughed a little harder, like I'm waiting for the punchline or the funny moment and it passes without that hearty guffaw I was hoping for.
I don't think Suzy's going to have any trouble generating a following, given her solid writing and interesting perspective on L.A. and the entertainment industry. Her blog doesn't fit the mold of the typical humor blog, which definitely hurt her in this review, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing overall. This blog is about the author, and I suspect that's enough to keep a lot of people coming back.
