Thread: Who is then Best Comedian

thats a good list, the only thing I would change is that personally can't stand Chris Rock so he would be off there. The rest I have no problem with thou. I would put Bill Maher up there, althou he isn't as conventional of a comedian as he is a political satirist.

I wanted to make a poll but I guess I don't know how.
I love Bills show on HBO

yeah its a great show.. see theres two things we agree on. plus you got chappelle in yrou AVI so thats three.. to make a poll when your posting a thread, there is a little box to click at the bottom of the page I am pretty sure

All mentioned by Foreman are great.

I also like Sam Kinison and saw him life, many moons ago.

Sam was funny as hell, it's too sad he died so young.

stephen wright and norm macdonald used to do some hilarious stand up, and dana carveys old routines were pretty dam funny too. these days i like chapelle, just saw a rerun of the racial draft bit, dam that shit is funny.

Also I gotta say that underrated and unconventional, Adam Corolla is the funniest man alive. Anyone who listens to loveline knows whats up.

Without Eddie Izzard, that list has little credibility.

ask 1000 people who Eddy Izzard is and 1 will know. 9 out of 10 know most on my list

Just how stoned are you?

Awesome. Maybe you should add your own name to that list.

Eddie is just small time, sorry bro. This list is for the greats, not some funny guy you saw in a comedy club in London.

No reason to get mad because nobody knows who Eddie is.

I'm not mad.

R.I.P.

Rodney Dangerfield

Bill Hicks and Sam Kinison were incomparable, but both died far too early. George Carlin's misanthropic bent is terrific but still doesn't connect well with that at-large public...seems everybody is still hooked on his 'observations'.

Robin Williams is my favorite

This list is not in any order.
1.Bill Cosby---I never found him laugh out loud funny. He's ok.


2.Dave Chapell----- The shit he does makes me laugh crying........ "The black President Bush"


3.Redd Fox---- Old School funny

4.Richard Pryor--- Real funny, liked his movies too.


5.George Carlin---- This guy doesn't get enough credit.


6.Chris Rock--- His standup is pretty good, alot of NY reality humor to it, but he sucks as an actor. There are times when I can't make out what he is saying...yells too much. Making it's his huge teeth.


7.Jerry Seinfield--- Loved his show. He should preform more or is that it.


8.Eddy Murphy---- What the fuck happened, he was so funny.


9.Bill Maher---- I haven't watched enough of him.



My favorite would have been a young Eddie Murphy but I would have to go with Dave Chappelle from this list.

But my alltime favorite is Rodney Dangerfield...no one compares.

He is like a machine gun with his humor. Nonstop.

Too bad about Sam, he was funny.

I loved Robin Williams, stand up.

I did not like Dennis Miller.

I loved Richard Pryor.

I couldn't clikc with Eddie Murphy standup.

I did like Louis Anderson.

George Burns very clean felt if you needed to swear that you where not a true comedian . Yes he is dead but one of the godfathers of comedy . There are more some you wouldn't know .

Richard Pryor

I agree with that.. the vulgarity is usually way overboard with comedians.
