well, it's hard for me to find anything that Nicholas says remotely funny, he is a figure of ridicule that is for certain, but I don't find anything that Nicholas says to be even remotely funny, except when he frequently trips over his words and slurs his diction.  I mean anything he says to try and enhance the moment of humor does nothing but bring it to a crashing halt, because it just seems like he's got nothing even remotely creative or original to say, so does nothing but steal other people's thunder, usually by repeating something someone else has said to try and get a cheap laugh and it never works.  I mean his own frequent admissions to the fact that when he tries to make fun of the other panelists the audience never laugh but when they have a go at him, they not only laugh but they clap.  this should be a clear indication that Nicholas shouldn't even try, and yet he still does and still gets no laughs, just boos and hisses.

Seriously. Nicholas isn't "threatening" the audience; the joke is that
he knows everyone disagrees and tries to pretend that he has ultimate
control over them, whereas everyone (HE INCLUDED) knows that it just
isn't true. I just don't see how you're reading any degree of malice
into such things.
