Your favorite comedian? - Page 5

Saw Carlin, Amazing Jonathan, Gary Mule Deer, Bob Nelson, Kinison(twice), and Richard Jeni in person. All of them were great, I did see Gallager in concert and was dissapointed. I think he was working on a new act and it needed lots of work on it. I may have been expecting too much since I had seen all his show tapes.

Of course Mordal is my #1 fella
Chris Rock
Ellen has come a long way....
Aisha Tyler is surprisingly funny
Hal Sparks and Michael Ian Black - on VH1 - very funny
George Carlin
David Spade - his stand-up is great
The D, of course (thanks for that one, Snow)

I know there's a million more.

eta: Maybe it's me, I just don't "get" Mitch Hedberg (name?). He's sooo not funny.

Lewis Black...I find him very funny for some reason. Normally I don't find angry people funny but he is. I think because he comes out with things like when he overheard the line about "if it wasn't for my horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college." and he just takes it from there.

I also adored Dennis Wolfberg (may have spelt his name wrong) He was a red haired comic who died about 10 years ago of cancer. He was very funny.

I like Jeff Foxworthy. Just watched the Blue Collar Comedy Jam (or trip or whatever) that was funny. Bill Cosby always makes me laugh. As does Robin Williams.

I love COMEDY and I have a catalog of Comedy CD's that...
I could open my OWN store. As long as the person (male-female) touches my funny bone they are a fan to me.

My personal faves

George Carlin
Margaret Cho
Kate Clinton
Bill Engvall
Jeff Foxworthy
Larry The Cable Guy
Suzanne Westenhoefer
Robin Williams

How could I have forgotten Robin Williams and Margaret Cho???? And Steve Martin? I had ALL his material memorized when I was in high school. I still have my copy of The Cruel Shoes.

I see I forgot Dennis Leary, Lewis Black, and Dave Atell on my earlier list. I used to watch the Daily Show just for Lewis Black's rants and who can forget Dennis Leary (and Adam Sandler, etc.) starting out on MTV's Remote Control.

Mich Hedberg
Amazing Jonathan
Dave Mordal
Rich Vos
Dennis leary
Dave Chappelle
Lewis Black
Harland Williams

I just heard this really funny guy, Daniel Tosh, on Kilborn. He was really funny, add him too my list.

Let's not forget Eddie Izzard either! "I'm covered in beeeeeeeeeeees!"

I'm not sure who Artie Lange is but, I LOVE Chris Rock and just saw Dave Chappelle on "Inside the Actor's studio". I love him even more after seeing him on this. Just seems like a real good guy.

I think Eddie Murphy is the best at stand up.
