Favorite Comedians

[browniebuck]

Does anyone have any favorite comedians (stand-up or otherwise)?
I REALLY enjoy listening to/watching the following..
1. Mitch Hedberg (God rest his soul)
2. Gabrielle Iglesias
3. Jeff Dunham
4. Daniel Tosh
5. Jay Mohr (his stand-up...not so much his acting)
6. Jim Gaffigan
any others, I am always looking for someone new to listen to/watch.

Am I that old, or just out of it? I never heard of any of them. Now, Larry the Cable Guy is another story.

Daniel Tosh and Jeff Dunham have their own shows on Comedy Central now...Dunham is the ventriliquist.
Mitch Hedberg was one of the funniest comedians I have ever heard...his comedy is almost all irony and delivery.

I like Demetri Martin and don't care for Dunham or Tosh.

I don't necessarily like Tosh's show, but his stand-up (audio...I can't watch the guy!) is hilarious. His piece on plastic surgery is great.
Mitch Hedberg's bit about the hippopotamus is one of my favorites....is it a hippopotamus or is it a really cool opotamus?...along with his McDonald's bit, these are two of my favorites (among MANY).

Ron White
Richard Pryor
Dennis Leary

Daniel Tosh is from Florida and graduated from UCF (my school), so he'll always get props from me. I like the show and his stand-up is great too.
Joel Mchale - The Soup is funny and his standups are too.
Dane Cook
Dave Chappelle - Wish he would come back. Probably my favorite.

Richard Pryor
Chris Rock
Eddie Murphy
WTH, it's like the NBA on my list, no white guys....OK, add Steven Wright, George Carlin, and Jerry Seinfeld (his real stand up is really good, not the "made for TV" stuff).

+1 on Bill Cosby
Sigh, I love real comedy...but it seem folks think cursing and cutting people own is funny. The new batch just doesn't cut it with me. However the red neck guys can make me laugh every time.

I forgot to list the Blue Collar boys...we went to see Larry and Ron White when they were in town. Larry's opening act that night was AWESOME (PJ Walsh).

Of course! Jerry Seinfeld is awesome. His acting abilities aren't the best but at the end of the day I'll watch anything with him in it.
