Dave Chappelle

 

[Nosferatu]

Andy Kaufman was brilliant for the schtick he'd do..and the ripple effect it created.

I get the fact everyone thinks he was brilliant and I was mildly amused with him playing latka but I didn't think much of his stand up at all, I found him to be annoying.

As for the older school comics....Dick Gregory, Mort Sahl, Lenny Bruce and Ernie Kovacs were top notch.

 

[Nosferatu]

Wasn't Kovacs the guy in North to Alaska with the Duke? Dick Gregory was good, nice one...

Everyone's naming a bunch of fossils.

I mean sure they were all great, but I think there are some current ones who are much better.

Dane Cook for example. He's probably the funniest guy in the history of the world.

Got to see Davd Chappelle once, before his TV show. Best act I've been too. Jim Gaffigan is another of my personal favorites outside of the options. (Hotttttpocketttsss). Aziz Ansari is another I like. Voted for Carlin. Even though in my mind he was The Conductor from Shiny Time Station to me until I was about 12-13.

Dane Cook? My favorite moment from his career was Kevin Costner murdering him with a shovel.

 

[Brahmsian]

COSBY!

George Gobel should be on the list. People younger than myself may never have watched "Lonesome George" as he called himself, but he was good.

 

[RoboticDreams]

I don't like your list.

I don't care.

Robin Williams in his early days in San Francisco was off the chain.

 

[RoboticDreams]

Dane Cook? My favorite moment from his career was Kevin Costner murdering him with a shovel.

Dane Cook is fucking awful. Chappelle is hilarious and I like Gaffigan as well.

 

[RoboticDreams]

Steve Martin is not funny.

The most "unfunny" comedians of all time list:
1) Steve Martin
2) Robin Williams
3) Woody Allan

They guy I could always watch, every time would make me laugh, never got old, was Rodney Dangerfield.

Robin Williams has a few funny bits or did. Steve Martin isn't funny live and Woody Allen?! He needs to be exiled for being a pedo, fuck him.

 

[The Derski]

Forgot about Brian Regan. He is pretty hilarious.

 

[RoboticDreams]

Hadn't seen that one. The Chris Benoit joke was funny as shit.
