Who's Your Favourite Stand-Up Comic?

[5abSingh]

I like just about any stand-up comedy, but my favourite comics are Dave Chappelle and Dane Cook. How about you?

[Brownbear]

jerry seinfeld and george carlin, and the filipino rex navarette

there are some others, but these ones come to mind right away

[Bortman]

There are a lot of "no name" comics out there who are barely known that I've seen and thought they were phenomenal.

Actually, I saw on TV a long time ago some handicaped guys doing standup. Wow, all I can say is this one dude, I wish I could remember his name, was the funniest man I've ever heard. I think he had cerebral palsey, but man could he tell a joke! And there was another guy in a wheel chair that was super funny too. I love standup comedy but it takes a lot for me to actually laugh out loud, but these boys did it for sure!

yeah the 'no-name' ones are always the best because they're not so full of themselves...they don't have big egos because they blew up on one or two jokes (i.e. russell peters, eddie murphy, chris rock, all the big-name comics who started out in clubs)

Mitch Hedberg ruled!

When I saw the topic, Dane Cook popped into my head...

Also George Carlin, Rex Navarrete (saw him live a few days ago)

[tempo]

right now, Lewis Black and Russell Peters. I've seen Lewis Black live and would love to see Russell Peter's show - he's Canadian too so it'd be great to see him become a huge star.

Dane Cook
Carlos Mencia
John Pinette
Sean Collins (No not the fat guy Sean Cullen)
Mitch Hedburg (R.I.P)

And you call yourself a fan?! C'mon...you can't list him as one of your favorit comics if you didn't even know he died.

Well I just recently really started getting into his stuff, I had always thought he was funny when I saw him on Just for Laughs or whatever, but I had no idea he died...

[ElChico]

Sarah Silverman. Funny and easy on the eyes
