Comedians!

[Fallen-Angel Risen-Demon]

Who is your favorite comedian and why? Also post a link or embed a video of them at work.
For me it has to be Russel Howerd for he is so optimistic and you can tell he gets half his humour of the internet shown here from his show Russel Howerds good news.
Another thing from good news
He also sometimes makes references to games.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Jerry Seinfeld and the entire cast of MTV's The State.

Other than that there aren't really any comedians that I like on a steady basis.

 

[Frequen-Z]

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

The late but still great George Carlin.

 

[Gabanuka]

I really like Michael Mcintyre.

 

[sidecord]

ralphie may, lewis black, and jim gaffigan

 

[Marter]

Jimmy Carr is probably my favorite. The way he delivers his jokes and the style they are written in makes me laugh the most.

Mine was Bill Hicks, but he's dead now. Other than that.. Hansje Teeuwen!! But he is not very well known except in Holland.

 

[Nautical Honors Society]

Zach Galaffanakiss, Jim Gaffigan, Louis C.K., Larry David, Dave Chapelle, and Nick Swardson are all pretty funny.

 

[Celtic_Kerr]

George Carlin
Tommy Tiernan
John Pinette

 

[The Austin]

THESE GUYS!
And before any of you people are like "They're not comedians!" To you I say: Fuck you!

 

[Stir72]

Michael Ian Black.

Wish there was some clearer footage of his performances but this is about as good as it gets. His book "My Custom Van" is hilarious.

Russell Peters. It's racial comedy, but goddamn it's good racial comedy.
