As someone who has done standup in the past and has seen many comics grow. I can tell Alex isn't super used to the stage, his jokes might not have been on top tier, but he carries himself well and keeps going. He has an overwhelming amount of potential and I know he's gonna do big things
Jokes werent great but his delivery and style was strong. It wasnt awkward or stilted, he powered through. He's a natural stand up so with better material he'll go far.
A lovely tribute at end to rob burrow, this guy is an inspiration, not many people can make fun of their disability like him & the tiks made performance
What is it with trolls? Didnt Thumper teach you anything? - ‘if you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all’. Humour is subjective - if it’s not for you, that’s ok. The courage it takes to do something like this is phenomenal, and that in itself deserves a maximum amount of respect. Alex, you did it!!! You put yourself out there and you made it to the final!!!!! Great things are coming your way. You are proactively making your dreams come true! So proud of you! ❤️
General feedback and critism is all part of entertainment. When you put yourself out there in thar business you have to be prepared to be judged based on what the final product is. Thumper was a rabbit and more applies to not being unkind to others for no reason. Seems when people have genuine feedback nowadays it's just easy to silence people by calling them trolls, offensive, bigots, racists ect. Don't add to the problem and just accept that his performance lacked much of the punch from other comedians and his constant joke 'attention' to his disability just wasn't funny. I've seen plenty of comedians with disabilities do this but if that is the only place your humor comes from then it's just unimaginative and boring.
If you can't say the truth from a personal perspective we begin to live in a passive aggressive world.... Everyone has a voice on RUclips it's not our tube your tube or My tube ... It's YOU tube and forums are a way of getting a view across sharing opinions... Whether good or bad ... Sometimes bad advice or communications are useful
His semi final was good and funny, but tonight when hardly anyone was laughing, I felt awkward as I sensed he was, however he pulled it off good and he is a nice guy, and he tried x
I love this man so much. I never thought there was another me as I have recently been diagnosed with autism like him and I have a nervous tic like him which I have been severely bullied about like he probably has. It brought tears to my eyes when he delivered the message at the end. Whether you feel different and don't fit in you are valued and matter! That was a fantastic message. Despite having disabilities people do not understand should not deserve judgement and you should follow your dreams. Beautiful man and person. So deserving and can relate to what he has been through in his life as it mirrors mine. He was incredibly funny, inspirational and talented. ❤
To be honest i gained the most respect for him when the judges were totally glazing this performance and then he admitted it wasn’t that great. I do like him a lot but not my style of comedy to be honest
Infectious indeed you dont let your disability hold you back i think as a disabled person myself the skies the limit and some one out there will snap you up very soon All the very best.
I really admire anyone with disabilities for having the courage to stand on a stage and face a large crowd BUT…… this guy has some pretty weak material and didn’t make me laugh or even smile. I believe the sympathy vote is becoming slightly dominant in BGT but let’s not focus on feeling sorry for contestants but on their content and talent.
Yeah exactly like i have autism and im really funny and I would consider myself a comedian but im not going to do stand up comedy because that’s just not what i want to do i want to dance and act and pretty soon hopefully in the next few years when im ready im planning on auditioning for agt so keep an eye out for the name Julian 😉👍🙏🏿❤️
I found him funny in all his acts. He’s pretty nervous tonight and he was fairly nervous last time and so then the jokes flatten during that time but he’s very enjoyable!
I don’t know why Haribow was at least higher in the finale. This guy has been funny. Tonight he seemed off and awkward. I do hope he continues his passion.
Alex represent people with disabilities really really well, and I know he’ll be a fantastic comedian whether if he wins or not, I thought it was an ok performance!
funny or not (he was) it takes courage to go on that stage in front of millions & show of disability & take advantage of it & not let it get better of u
i dont want sound like a troll ....nor a KAREN....but i have never found this dude funny. I just dont understand it. Maybe its a cultural thing, but ive never laughed at any of his acts. However, he does seem like a beautiful hearted guy
The best part of this was that Alex himself recognized that this set fell a bit flat. Definitely not his best. This just shows how hard comedy is. But he has earned the right to be here beyond just all the love for his issues. He knows he must be judged for his act not his issues or his stance on things. And this is how it should be. Simon is right that no matter what happens short term in BGT for him he has launched a career. Now it will be a matter of whether he can continue to generate material as he improves his overall stage presence.
I have autism and it so hard but i know what he means how hard and it an inability don't you dare say autism isn't inability you are trying to get attention so please stop having a go on people with disabilities
People with disabilities don’t like that type of statement that you just said, very uncalled for and inappropriate, Autism is more than just a disability, it’s a different ability, and I have autism myself and I never let autism stop me whatsoever!
Winning to get into the final showed him up for the awful comedian he is, ran out of every joke about himself he had. Re used one, and had nothing left in the tank, sorry, but not funny and definitely not a comedian, his closing message i felt was basically a cry for votes.
I love him as I’m autistic and deaf but also type 1 diabetic, the diabetes joke really frustrated me. As type 1 diabetes i not caused by diet or exercise, it’s autoimmune! I found that a bit offensive as I didn’t give myself type 1 diabetes. I was in a coma for a week at diagnosis as I was misdiagnosed. Type 2 diabetes can sometimes be diet and exercise related, but type 1 is NOTHING to do with diet or exercise xxx
Comedy is subjective. I personally enjoyed it. However, if you didn’t like it then that’s your opinion. However, it doesn’t give anyone the right to criticize him or anything like that
Do you know what it takes for you not to be able to hear anything. THAT'S ABIGAIL FOR YOU. aside that, she and afronita gave a real act of performance. Vote fore ABIGAIL and AFRONITA
Sorry but this was utter garbage. About as funny as covid. If that is stand up comedy then it’s dead. Then the ridiculous comments from the judges as if he was some sort of genius. That is why this show is outdated. Summed up by last year’s winner. Who’s act was repeatedly taking of hi-vis jacket.
Borinnggggg, nothing funny at all. I think he missed a good gag when he was going on about his driving, he could havve said he got confused with his clicking and the indicator sound or something.
Being all inclusive and positive about disabilities and illnesses doesn't really work when you use Diabetes as a punchline for a joke, and a lazy, unfunny punchline at that. I've had Type 1 Diabetes for 21 years now and funnily enough, don't find using my disease as punchline about death humorous. But lets not make fun of HIS conditions, because that would be unfair and too far. Hypocritical
😂 Hes literally used his ticks on all his performances. Embarrassing. So if he wins, this is what hes going to laugh about......its not even funny now.
@@Conor2496 didn't say he's faking it but if he was truly funny he wouldn't need to use his disability as a way to get through every performance he does, that's not comedy.
@@PC1974 Agree, thousands of people have ticks.......if he is serious about comedy then find other material other than using his disability 😑 ridiculous show.

For me it’s more the concept of what he is proving and what he is showing than his actual act.
I thought he was fab in his semi final but even though he might of not have been at his best tonight he tried
I found him funny in all his acts. He’s pretty nervous tonight and he was fairly nervous last time and so then the jokes flatten during that time but he’s very enjoyable!
