In order to head off a trend of threads for every comedian that people like, I'm making this thread.

My favorites:
Classic: Red Foxx, George Carlin, Sam Kennison, Bill Cosby, Richard Pryor,.

Current: Dennis Leary*, Frank Caliendo, Ellen DeGeneres, Tim Wilson, Jim Breuer, Mitch Hedberg, Keith Pelt@

*I realize Leary could go in either "classic" or "current".

Well, I wouldn't call him "classic".

Well, I like Brian Regan, Mitch Hedberg, Jim Gaffigan, and Bill Cosby the most.
And then the rest are okay. Except Dane. I can't stand listening to him.

Anybody ever heard of the Sklar brothers? Some of their stuff is pretty funny. I also like Mitch Hedburg. And despite all the Dane Cook hate on this forum, I think he is funny as well.

I'm-a have to use Rule 1 here and say that they do.

In light of this, I add "Kids in the Hall" to my list.

I like Black. Sure, some of the cursing isn't needed, but he's just really funny.

Titus's End of the World Tour makes me roffle.

I really should get to seeing some Bill Cosby acts...

Oh dude, Christopher Titus! I love that guy. He's one of my favorites.

Also Lewis Black is the man.

And I like Bill Engvall, Ron White, and to a lesser extent, Foxworthy.

Classic: George Carlin, Bill Cosby, Richard Pryor

Current: Jim Gaffigan, Demitri Martin, Christopher Titus, Lewis Black, Bill Engvall, Ron White, Jeff Foxworthy

I love stand up comedy, I wish it was more popular than it is.

Bill Engvall and Ron White don't force the whole redneck thing as much as Foxworthy or Larry and that's why they're better.

also, is Comedy Central still doing that Lewis Black Daily-Show thing? That'd be awesome. He already makes me roffle every time he's on the Daily Show already, and if he gets Red State Diaries...it'll be a good day for me.

Wayne Brady's good on Whose Line, and the guest spot he did on Chapelle's was hilarious.

Colin Mochire, Ryan Stiles, and some of the other guests on Whose Line, mainly the black haired one.
