Let's not forget Carlos Mancia :banana:

Just bought tickets to see him over here in September.

back onto the subject. Jay Mohr is a very funny, very under-rated comedian.

Russell Peters.... He's an indo-canadian comic. Does awesome accents and pokes fun at aspects of different cultures. Can't find any vid's of him but I'm sure there's tons of mp3's on Shareza. I'll see what I can find..

Totally agree. Saw him live, freakin hilarious.

[blackmetal]

How 'bout...Chris Rock,Pablo Francisoc,the immortal Jerry Seinfeld(although i don't know is he any good these days but in his eralier days he was pretty good)

 

[Pudding]

Fucking bill Hicks Is the best comedian ever

 

[thewho]

Hmm.. Dave Chappelle is great, Bill Hicks was awsome, Pablo Fransisco is also great, Eddie Izzard, Robin Williams. There's so many.. i can't really choose, but i saw Eddie Izzard here in Sweden and i think i've never laughed so mutch in my life.

 

[Lost Soul]

Jim Gaffigan is my favorite by far. I also like Pablo Francisco, Dave Chapelle, Chris Rock, etc.

Stand-up

Coming from a British perspective, I'd have to say that some really good stand-ups are:

Jack Dee
Lee Evans
Bill Bailey
Pablo Francisco (i love his movie voice one)
Ricky Gervais
Peter Kay

Obviously, there are some really good American comedians (yes, i know that pablo is one) but i kind of limited it to my favs.

 

[RottenBanana]

I wish I could find the record breaking stand up Dave Chappelle...

 

[swede68]

I love Chappelle, but I have to agree with theWho, Eddie Izzard is by far one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen. Very dry, witty humor.

Cem Yılmaz

 

[vmax1992]

Lets please not forget Jeff Dunham with Walter, and Achmed the dead terrorist...

 

[Graywolf]

Ron White's You cant fix stupid

 

[SilentB]

I love Chappelle, but I have to agree with theWho, Eddie Izzard is by far one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen. Very dry, witty humor.

I totally agree with you on Eddie. He was great in his HBO (I think)show where he dressed in drag.

Another one I really enjoyed was a guy named Ron Shock. He did a stand up he called "Bad Gig Blues". A thin southern guy with some very funny stories. His Homepage below.

I can't beleive nobdy mentioned Jimmy Carr. Brit dead-pan comedy. He's brilliant.
If you can find Rodney Dangerfield's old stuff that's good too.

Found some new ones that I havent heard here, thanks
