George Carlin, Billy Connolly, Lewis Black, Patton Oswalt, Bill Burr, Louis C.K.
Edit: I can't even freakin' believe I forgot Jim Gaffigan and Eddie Izzard.
Least?: I don't know. If I don't like them after the first time, I don't listen to them, and I forget their names. lol

Favorite: George Carlin, hands down. There's no one else like him. There never will be.
My lease favorite: Kat Williams. I won't go into why because it would probably result in moderator wrath.

Most Favourite: Bill Bailey, Eddie Izzard, Dylan Moran
Least Favourite: Lee Evans. You know how some stand-up acts focus on some absurd part of modern life and mocks how some people just accept it? Well in the show of his I watched, he did that for things which, well, make perfect sense. For example:
"Why is it you never see any ugly dogs at Crufts?"
My response was "Because it's a dog show, idiot." My friend then extended this point by pointing out that there are ugly dogs at Crufts in the speciality breed section.

Damn I can tell when I'm the only black guy in the room.
Favorite: Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Bruce Bruce, Lavell Crawford, Katt Williams, Steve Harvey, Bernie Mac, early Chris Tucker, and Robin Harris.
Least Favorite: Larry the Cable Guy and the rest of the blue collar comedians.

My favourite comedian is the one with the name people can't spell.

George Carlin is over rated
Gabriel Iglesias - He does some of the best sounds effects EVER. MAAATIINNNNN
Daniel Tosh - when i am in the right mood
Lewis Black - some of the things he says make a lot of sense
Least Favorite
Bill Maher - I am by no means a religious person, but his talks on religion are ALWAYS condescending, and his movie Religulous was unwatchable because there were more blatant bullshit edits then a Michel Moore movie (Moore's editors are really good at it though).
Daniel Tosh - when I am in the wrong mood
and of course - Dane Cook - His style of comedy consists of unfunny stories about what he does with his day, mixed with body spasms and copious amounts of swearing.

Mitch Hedberg, Louis C.K., Daniel Tosh, Dave Attell
EDIT: Dane Cook isn't a comedian. Everything he says is unfunny and he's been caught stealing jokes from other actual comedians.
That being said I don't mind his acting. As long as he is told what to say.
EDIT EDIT: George Carlin isn't a comedian...he's a god. Worship him as such

No one's mentioned Jim Jeffries yet (that I've seen). How sad.
Let's see, though. Who's a shit comedian that hasn't been mentioned yet?
...
Aziz Ansari
Granted, I've only seen one of his one-hour specials (assuming the universe is unjust and there're more specials out there) and his bits on Scrubs, but his brand of "humor" makes me want to hit him.

How can you not like jim gaffigan?eddierigs said:
anyway,
Good comedians: Louis CK, Bill Burr, Jim Jeffries.
Bad comedians: Kat Williams, Lisa Lampinelli, and grand asshole, Bill Maher.
Favorite? I'll say Christopher Titus.
Least favorite? lewd English/Canadian/Australian comics who feel the need to be completely over the top. ex. Russel Brand (Oh he so counts).

For me, my favourite has to be The Pub Landlord. Al Murrays stand up is just hilarious from start to finish.
By Golly Amphoteric I don't know where we would be without you to watch over our spelling! (meant as playful banter not flamming)Amphoteric said:
Anthony Jeselnik (he was one of the people on the Roast of Donald Trump) is my favorite stand up comedian. He's jokes can get a little offensive, but they're really funny and he's great at telling them with a straight face.
