Favorite Comedian?

[Artina89]

I would say Robin Williams. I think that guy is hilarious



These are good examples of the guys wit and humor and never fails to make me smile

 

[Yopaz]

Hard to say, but I think I'll hand it to Stephen Lynch.
Of course there's also a bunch of others, Brian Regan is awesome, Jason Maford, George Carlin, too many names really.

Robin Williams USED to be hilarious, now it's just getting kind of sad.

 

[megamabu]

My favorite would have to be Winston Spear and sometimes a little Bill Burr.

 

[nomad240]

In no particular order

Robin Williams
George Carlin
Lewis Black
Richard Jeni -May he rest in peace
Daniel Tosh
Dave Chappelle

 

[Molander]

Dane Cook no doubt, also Jeff Dunham is pretty funny ^^

 

[Stuntkid]

I thought Russell Peters on "Comedy Now" was hilarious (In a politicaly incorrect kind of way)

But if you want my opnion on the best comedian, I will have to go with Fluffy! (Gabriel Iglesias)

George Carlin, a thousand times over. I love that man, he said some of the funniest, and at the same time the most thought provoking and mine opening words I've ever heard. He's as wise as he is handsome. Why I'm referring to him in present tense you ask? Well the sun didn't let him die. Joe Pesci Either.

 

[Doktor Sleepless]

Bill Hicks and Stewart Lee.
'Nuff said.

 

[wolf92]

I like Brian Regan and Mitch Hedberg

 

[The_ModeRazor]

This here guy.

What a riot!

(was lame. whatever.)

 

[Airthey]

Right... Bill bailey, russel howard, ed byrne, dara o'brien, sean lock, stewart francis, tim minchin, ross noble. but tbh, i'm the kinda guy were you just give me a stand up dvd, and i'd probably love it

 

[Aijou]

In descending order

Eddie Izzard - Specifically "Dress to Kill", I could watch that show forever. Few people can make the funniest stand up ever out of a subject like history. "Glorious" is also pretty good, goes downhill from there.

Jim Jefferies - "I swear to god" is probably my most-watched stand up of all time. The latest one isn't as good tho.

Mitch Hedberg - Better in short 10 minute bursts than the full 90 minute CD IMO, but those are some mind blowing 10 minutes. Just hearing him say the word "Duck" cracks me up now.


Past those 3 it get's pretty interchangable. Honorable mentions are Eddie Murphy, Dylan Moran, Anthony Jeselnik (Funniest Dane Cook impression ever!), George Carlin, Dennis Leary, Daniel Tosh, Geoff Keith, Timothy Young and Whitney Cummings.

 

[Tarlane]

Louis C.K. is my current favorite, though I listen to an awful lot of comedy I enjoy.

Others:
Dimitri Martin
George Carlin
Mike Birbiglia
Daniel Tosh
Todd Barry
Bo Burnham
Don Friesen
Flight of the Conchords
James P. Connolly
Jim Norton
John Caparulo
Stephen Lynch
Mitch Hedberg
Tim Minchin

 

[aenimau5]

Dylan moran's good too

 

[Instant K4rma]

[Xenomemphate]

Going to see Bill Bailey in Edinburgh in November, can't wait!

Also like Steve Hughes and Billy Connolly.

 

[minespatch]

Tom Waits, Tom Lehrer... Gookie Face, Groucho Marx, Charlie Chaplin.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Jimmy Carr, Christopher Titus, Mike Birbiglia, Bo Burnham, Lewis Black, Robin Williams, Louis C.K., Dave Chapelle, Demetri Martin, Stephen Lynch, Steve Martin, Eddie Izzard, and occasionally Whitney Cummings.

 

[Sjakie]

Franky Boyle, Jimmy Carr and another honerable mention of George Carlin!

Also, as a dutchman. I have to mention: Youp van 't Hek

Spoiler: youpie (dutch)
