Didn't say he's nice to listen to, I mean he kills his jokes seconds after saying them. He does what Tim Buckley does, gives his jokes away right away and then starts beating them dead with a spiked club. It's just funny to see him mess everything up, lol.

Marcus Brigstocke is a god of comedy.

Best comedians I've seen live are Mark Thomas, and recently at my uni I saw Milton Jones (awesome gig, but the crowd didn't get it at all).

Always will be No 1. Dylan Moran - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ltJuw9yNtec&feature=related

2. Bill Bailey - Best surrealist/musical comedian ever.
3. Russell Howard - His stand up is actually quite personal and emotional but still completely hilarious.
4. Ross Noble - You have to appreciate the way this man's mind works. The best and most random improvisational comedian I have seen.
5. Jimmy Carr - I enjoy his dead pan face dry wit and sarcasm. Plus he handles hecklers very well.

Eddie Izzard is WIN, but I wanted to have someone I could laugh at on my top 4 list (I didn't want to do 5 for some reason...). I might add Eddie if only because he looks weird in a dress. lol

Wow, some great picks in this topic. My favourites would be Patton Oswalt, Zach Gafilianakis, Eddie Izzard, David Cross, Aziz Ansari and Mitch Hedberg.

On the other hand, I can't stand Dane Cook, Carlos Mencia, Jeff Dunham and Pablo Francisco. The former and the latter because they just jump up and down making noises.

They are all I can think of right now, but I am very certain there's more I just can't remember their names.

Hey! Pablo's much better than that hack Dane Cook.

Damn it, sorry! I didn't mean to double post.
