Stand-up Comedians

[Strain42]

John Caparulo is quickly becoming one of my favorites, I can't even tell you how many times I've watched his Meet Cap special on DVD and it always makes me laugh.

I dunno who my least favorite is. I don't really like Dane Cook though. I tried watching his latest special to see if he had gotten any better and...nobody was even laughing during the special. The crowd just cheered at everything he said, even if it wasn't that funny.

Izzard is great, as is Lewis C.K., Doug Stanhope, Jimmy Carr, been watching a lot of Tim Minchin's work lately too.

As far as least favourite.... J.B. Smoove, just because he seems to be in everything I see lately, and I don't like his comedy at all. Plus his name is dumb.

 

[RobCoxxy]

Dara O'Brien, Frankie Boyle, Dylan Moran, Doug Stanhope, all brilliant.
Michael Macintyre pisses me off completely, I cannot fucking stand him.

 

[Korak the Mad]

Lewis Black
Patton Oswalt
Greg Giraldo
(sometimes) Bill Maher

 

[Dalek Caan]

Frankie Boyle, Hugh Dennis, Russel Howard, Andy Parkasins, Dara O' Brian, Lee Evans and Rich Hall.

 

[Lilani]

I love Robin Williams, George Carlin, Patton Oswalt, Jeff Dunham, and Gabriel Iglesias. In that order :3

Least favorite...I don't like Dane Cook so much. I dunno, I guess I just never got him or his style or something.

 

[Qitz]

Richard Pryor, Red Foxx, Lewis Black, Bill Cosby, Rodney Dangerfield, Brian Posehn, Eddie Izzard, George Carlin, Christopher Titus, Mitch Hedberg, so many to mention.

Least Favorite, Dane Cook, Ned Holness (a.k.a. Carlos Mencia), all the black comedians who jump right to the "derp white / black people" jokes.

I love Robin Williams, George Carlin, Patton Oswalt, Jeff Dunham, and Gabriel Iglesias. In that order :3

Least favorite...I don't like Dane Cook so much. I dunno, I guess I just never got him or his style or something.

Knew there were a couple I forgot.

As for Dane Cook's "style" it's basically "I was on the internet and like to flail around"

 

[CrashBang]

Top three: Ross Noble, Rhod Gilbert, Dylan Moran. Also a big fan of Eddie Izzard

Least favourite: Lee Evans. That man is fucking dreadful! Also Dane Cook but that's a given, nobody likes him

 

[ramboondiea]

Dara o'brien is the greatest comedian ever as far as i am concerned.

and there aint many comedians i hate, if i dont like them i just dont watch them so i cant really say, i dont like jo brand....but i do have this completely unfounded hate of Andy parsons, not as a comedian, but as a person.....te dick head.

 

[LuckyClover95]

I too like Eddie Izzard. I also quite like Michael Macintyre, Russel Howard, and that one liner guys whos name I can't remember.

 

[Shodan1980]

Eddie Izzard for being a genius, Jimmy Carr for being the hardest working man in comedy and staying bloody funny. Plus Reginald D. Hunter for just being his perfect self

Least favourite probably goes to most of the also rans on Mock the Week but in particular the random non-sequiter man Milton Jones. Not. Funny.

Stewart Francis the Canadian or Jimmy Carr?

Double post due to wrong button fail on a quote

 

[Doktor Sleepless]

Stewart Lee. Well thought out comedy that he's actually trying to make a point with. Go watch his comedy vehicle. The best lone crier in the wilderness since Bill Hicks.

 

[kurupt87]

The only comedian I really like who hasn't already been mentioned is Sean Lock, so I'll mention him.

I like Sean Lock.

Edit: Forgot David Mitchell, for shame! He's great too.

 

[Gentleman_Reptile]

Oh man there's Billy Connolly....Dylan Moran.... Bill Bailey....George Carlin....Stephen K. Amos....Ron White....Robin Williams....Jim Carrey.....the list goes on.

 

[Herbsk]

Favorite: Gabriel Igelsias, Lewis Black, Daniel Tosh

(Do John Stewart and Stephen Colbert count? If so they are on there)

Least Favorite: Jeff Dunham (those puppets are REALLY stupid)

 

[The Eyeball Moose]

I don't watch much stand-up comedy. I've seen Demitri Martin and Gabriel Iglesias and I like them.

 

[Mister Benoit]

Well I'm going to see Louis C.K live in about 2 and a half weeks and absolutely can't wait ^_^ Might go see some other folks at the Montreal Just for Laughs festival also.

I don't really like the puppet dude or Dane Cook.

*Woot after almost 3 years 1000 posts ^_^

 

[The Heavy Metal Nerd]

Robin Williams. 'Nuff said.
