Rhys Darby, the guy who played Murrary in Flight of the Conchords, hes the funniest stand up ive ever seen

My god, I could list all the ones off the top of my head and still be missing some of the ones I know of.
My favorites are early George Carlin, Aries Spears, Patton Oswalt, Christopher Titus, etc.
If you have Netflix off a Wii or Xbox or whatever, there should still be the CC presents compilation on there. Right now I just started on the A's. Another add to the list: Alonzo Bodden.

 

[AdmiralMemo]

Jeff Dunham is good.

 

[Dr.Susse]

I'm watching Ed Byrne right now in fact.

 

[Pinkros]

Seriously, this long and no one has mentioned Eddie Izzard yet? I call Eddie Izzard. The man is a genius.

Spoiler: Thats much better. Dave Chapelle :D

Surprised Dave Chapelle hasn't been meantioned.

Other greats are:
-Bill Hicks
-Eddie Murphy
-Billy Connelly

 

[Jazzyjazz2323]

Robin Williams is a must when it comes to stand up comedy

 

[Something Amyss]

I didn't know you had to be an atheist to enjoy a routine written by a Jewish comedian.

You should all be ashamed for not mentioning any of these fine, fine gentlemen.

Edit: Half-ninja'd. I have faith in humankind once again.

 

[Something Amyss]

Larry the Fucking Cable Guy? Big redneck dumbfuck does not a standup comedian make.

But pretending to be one does endear you to millions.

Seriously, this long and no one has mentioned Eddie Izzard yet? I call Eddie Izzard. The man is a genius.

That was my exact thought. The second page, really?
