who's your favorite stand up comedian?

[Nazulu]

George Carlin all the way. The most controversial and original I've seen to date. First time I heard him was on the radio talking about how much he hates Mickey Mouse, almost died as a kid.

 

[PrinceBuffoon]

ricky gervais anyone?

Absolutely. I wish he would do more stand-up, but I do love the Ricky Gervais Show.

 

[Verzin]

Tim Minchin. He alternates between stand up and songs.

steven k amos. Saw him perform quite recently at the melbourne international comedy festival, was absolutely brilliant.

Seen this nerdy little bastard four times. Each time I'm left laughing till my face and abs ache.

Either Patton Oswalt, as mentioned above.

Spoiler: Lewis Black

Spoiler: or Louis C.K.

I really like Frankie Boyle, he is great. but I truly wish with all my heart that David Mitchell did stand up...

 

[BENZOOKA]

From non-fellow-countrymen: Bill Bailey.

 

[Kungfu_Teddybear]

That would be Mr Lee Evans.

Too many to name, but I would say that Dave Chappelle always gets a laugh out of me.

 

[cwmdulais]

Marc Maron, listing to him makes me feel better about my life

You might want to edit some more substance into that post before the mods come around, dude.

I've been watching a lot of Dave Chapelle and Louis C.K recently. Good stuff.
Nobody beats Eddie Izzard for me, though.
