favorite standup comedian

[semagic]

the late "Rodney Dangerfield" was the best.

"I was an earth sign... my wife was a water sign... together we made mud"!

My son made me mad one night... so I told him one day you will have a son of your own, and he said someday I would too!

Dave Chappelles killin em softly is my favourite standup set of all time. I've watched that thing atleast a dozen times now and still love it! It was replayed several times on weekend afternoons on the local comedy channel, once literally as I was headed out the door, keys in hand. After 25 minutes I put the keys down and just surrendered to the funny
For what its worth is ok, but not as gold. He's a very natural standup, which is why his tv show did so well.

Ron White and Carlos Mencia are cool..but I can only take them is small doses..I'm getting tired of that Mencia "der da der" and that mexican screaming thing he does..

Now Rodney ..he was the shit!!!

I watched George Carlin "back on Campus" on Comedy Central..it's pretty old..but he's cool!!!

I must repeat..Kevin James of "king of queens"..his stand up "don't sweat the small stuff" is funny as hell..I don't get tired of him at all..in fact he's not even vulgar..even the kids can watch it..he's great!!

My favorites as of late... Stephen Lynch, Mike Birbiglia, Reno Collier and Carlos Mencia. Those guys are funny as hell!

Here's another clip from Jim Gaffigan. It's part of his Hot Pocket bit, not the entire thing, but you'll get the idea.

Ron White is very good.

Check out Stephen K Amos, Ross Noble, Danny Bhoy, Rich Hall (or his alter ego, Otis Lee Crenshaw), The Amazing Johnathan, Bill Bailey, Patrice O'Neal, Mike Wilmot, Ed Byrne, Boothby Graffoe, Adam Hills, Demetri Martin, Daniel Kitson, Arj Barker.

not so much standups, more a comedy act - The Umbilical Brothers. Their visual comedy is brilliant, transfers well to video.

Well before he passed away I'd say Rodney Dangerfield.
