Mine is Chris Rock I love him he is so damn funny.

Denis Leary and Cedric the Entertainer

I dont think I have seen any of there shows I will have to look into it.

I also liked Bill Maher's Im Swiss and Martin Lawerance.

I haven't been able to see Denis' show either, but rent "The Ref." Great holiday movie, lol. I've never seen Cedric's show either, but I saw him live once, and I have "Original Kings of Comedy". Good rental!

And I *love* Chris Rock, haven't seen his show, lol, but great standup! And Martin Lawrence - with Tim Robbins in "Nothing To Lose," that was funnier than I expected.

I saw nothing to loose in the theaters and oh myu that movie was so fucking funny. I use to always watch Def Comedy jam on HBO a long time ago I seen the kings of comedy so I remember now and I have all of Chris Rocks standups good rentals he is hillarious.

Is the Ref with him robbing the fighting couple?? If so saw it last year acctualy our marriage counselor back than said for my husband nad I to rent it cause it was so much like us so I did. If it is that one.

LOL, yep, that's the one!!

Richard Pryor <-- Bar none, then Eddie Murphy, Adam Sandler, Rodney Carrington, George Carlin, Chris Tucker, and Chris Rock. and last but not least Mitch Hedberg who recently died of an OD... RIP

For those who have never heard of mitch you can find some of his clips here

We talking stand-up comics or comic actors as well?

Eddie Murphy goes at the top of both lists. I don't think there's ever been anybody better than Eddie in his prime.

I love Chris Rock, Bring the Pain is one of the funniest comic albums ever. No Cure For Cancer (Dennis Leary) is fuckin' brilliant too. Lewis Black and Bill Maher are both hysterical satirists. Dave Chapelle gets me rolling; he shot his last Showtime special here in SF and did an AWESOME bit about riding the buses in this town - had me on the floor laughing. Jim Bruer does a great standup act too. I think Dane Cook is my favorite of the young up-and-comers.

As for the comedic actors; John Cleese, Adam Sandler, Mike Meyers, Jason Lee, Billy Crystal, Kevin Kline, Sean William Scott, Jason Mewes (Jay of Jay and Silent Bob)

Bill Hicks A funny guy taken from us way too early... I have so many favorites tho it hard to list them all

FUCK YES PUPPET! FUCKIN MITCH MAN! funniest mother fucker alive...


seen George Carlin...and George Lopez....both really funny...but mitch has got to be one of my favorites...along with dane cook and lewis black.




i used to do drugs....i still do but i useta too!


i wish they had a cinnamon roll incense.....cuz sometimes i want some..but i dont always have time to make a pan! i would rather light a stick! and have my roomates wake up with false hopes!


you will never see an "escelator out of service" sign. you will only see an "escelator temporarially stairs. sorry for the convienience"

that must have been a short meeting....they knew they wanted something with the word tree....so they had a meeting.


"how about tree?"
"no"
"double tree?"
"HELL YEA!!"

"meeting adjourned!"

i had my heart set on quadruple tree...and they were so close!

i too like denis leary. "Keith Richards intimated that kids should not do drugs. Keith Richards! Says that kids should not do drugs! Keith, we can't do any more drugs because you already fucking did them all, alright! There's none left! We have to wait 'till you die and smoke your ashes! Jesus Christ! Talk about the pot and the fuckin' kettle."

also I dig eddie murphy, chris rock, dane cook, sean collins(canadian dude).

Agreed on Mitch Hedberg.

"I want to be a race car passenger...just a guy who bugs the driver. 'Say, man, can I turn on the radio? You should slow down. Can I stick my feet out the window? Why do we gotta keep going in circles? Man, you really like Tide.'"

I also like Jerry Seinfeld, George Carlin, Dane Cook, Jeremy Hotz, Margaret Cho and Jim Gaffigan. Oh, and Dana Carvey--that one HBO special was hilarious!

I have some Mitch hedberg clips on the Flix.... man he was funny as hell .. hated that he died

yea that really blows... he had such an off sense of comedy that just killed me..

Mines gotta be Billy Connelly, Lee Evans, Ricky Gervais, Eddie Izzard and Bill Bailey

Eddie Izzard in his prime was one of the funniest things I've ever seen, and Ricky Gervais for his awkward, completely un-politically correct humour that im never sure if i should be laughing it is genius

Stephen Lynch, Jim David, and Lewis Black

I won't repeat all the other greats that were already mentioned. But I will say that I like Steven Wright.

Here's two of my favorite lines of his

1) I was going to buy some powdered water, but I couldn't figure out what to add
2) I hold the record for the largest seashell collection. i keep it scattered on beaches around the world.

Okay. I revised them a little cuz I'm too lazy to look for the literal quote to be verbatim, but you get the idea.

Gallagher is also pretty good. I like when he does the school lesson and how messed up the English language is.

Two words... Richard Pryor!

When it comes to stand-up comedy Russel Peters is number one, then the whole blue collar comedy group, Chris Rock, Robin William skit about golf and so many more. I love stand-up comedy. I'd rather watch it than anything else.

kill a kitten
a little bit special
lullaby

one of the funniest things ever
Robin Williams on Golf

Steven Wright, George Carlin, Chris Rock.
The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she left me before we met.

OK, so what's the speed of dark?

How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink?

If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked

something.

Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have.

When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy.

Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

Shin: a device for finding furniture in the dark.

Many people quit looking for work when they find a job.

I intend to live forever - so far, so good.

Join the Army, meet interesting people, kill them.

If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?

Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

Dancing is a perpendicular expression of a horizontal desire.

richard pryor
mel brooks
red foxx
eddie murphy
robin harris

All time it is real tuff to say but one of my new favs is Carlos Mancia. I haven't seen anything from him that doesn't make me laugh my ass off.

How could I forget the stand up of Bill Cosby? If you don't like his shows that's one thing but the stand-up movie from "Bill Cosby Himself" is a must see talks all about drunks and drug users and dentists and stuff. Really you have to watch it. Hubby's not a fan of stand-up period but this one makes him laugh. Oh and has anyone ever heard Jimmy Fallon's Writting on the Bathroom Wall? Good stuff there too.

I like Adam Sandler

almost forgot. Brian Regan "The big yellow one's the sun."

larry the cable guy:wub:
rodney carrington
sam kennison:roflmao:
and of course richard, chris......

chris rock's funniest bit:

to the women: "i wish you'd just shut the ____ up! i have heard every +++++++ thing you have to say!

"sing you bastards!"
"I got this burnin sensation when I pee..."
"do u think there"ll be hummers in heaven..."
"i got a 12 inch dick, dozen roses, and a pickup truck..."

No real particular order (well, maybe apart from the first two):

Billy Connolly
Robin Williams
Eddie Izzard
Denis Leary
Python Team
Joyce Grenfell
Victoria Wood
Lenny Henry
