Old skool Jim Davidson

[Redbul]

There are so many....

 

Lately we've been digging up some old Tim Vine one liners.

 

But you cannot whack the comedy genius of Bill Hicks. It's a tragedy he died so young, he would have had a field day with Dubya a couple of years ago.

 

But Frankie Boyle is pure class; gotta agree with this one.

[Mole]

Warren Mitchell as Alf Garnett - best comedy ever.

[Smirking_Saint]

Frankie Boyle

or

Jason Byrne http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQNtW00XOWw

 

If you get a chance to watch jason Byrne out of the box give it a shot, it's genius.

I'm a Lee Evans fan, the missus loves Peter Kay. Mustard mit I did watch his Doovde the other day and laughed.

 

Of the new breed, I like Jason Manford off 8 out of 10 Cats, Russell Howard from Mock the Week, and currently a big fan of Michael McIntyre.

[Thorpe-le-Saint]

Frankie Boyle, Russell Howard, Peter Kay, Michael Macintyre (sp?)

[sambosa75]

Dont like Michael McIntyre. He laughs at his own jokes and looks too smug for my liking.

 

If you watch Peter Kay once, he is the best comedian around but if you've seen him once, you've seen him 100 times as he re-cycles all his material.

 

Ricky Gervais' delivery is brilliant but it is co-written with Jimmy Carr and I dont rate him. Just prefer the way Gervais tells them.

[Jillyanne]

Russell Brand.

[Julian H. Cope]

Russell Kane

 

Andrew Lawrence

[percy windham]

stewart lee

[scott_saints]

Russell Brand.

.....is a c-ock?

[notnowcato]

Dave Chappelle

[Pancake]

Dave Chappelle

 

Really? God, one of the least funny "funny people" I have ever had the displeasure to watch on TV.

[thesaint sfc]

Jack Dee is the worst.♠

[thesaint sfc]

how the f*ck did I do that.

[the stain]

Warren Mitchell as Alf Garnett - best comedy ever.

 

It's important to be able to laugh at yourself, eh Stan? Because satire helps us learn...

[Rattlehead]

Jack Dee is the best. Other notable mentions for Stewart Lee, George Carlin and Bill Hicks.

 

Russell Brand is unbelievably unfunny as is that camp tw*t, Alan Carr. Michael McIntyre isn't that funny either.

[notnowcato]

Really? God, one of the least funny "funny people" I have ever had the displeasure to watch on TV.

 

It's all a matter of taste. Just because it floats my boat doesn't make you a bad person.

[Pancake]

It's all a matter of taste. Just because it floats my boat doesn't make you a bad person.

 

Yes it does. Im a bad person

[Marsdinho]

Rik Mayall

Russell Brand

Michael McIntyre

Jason Manford

 

But the Ricky Gervias / Steve Merchant / Karl Pilkington combo is my all time favourite.

[Tokyo-Saint]

Russell Brand

Michael McIntyre

Jason Manford

 

But the Ricky Gervias / Steve Merchant / Karl Pilkington combo is my all time favourite.

 

 

+ 1 on all these.

[thesaint sfc]

Ricky Gervais is crap.

[notnowcato]

Yes it does. Im a bad person

 

That might be the case but it is not my doing.

[bungle]

Hatch.

[Junction 9]

As far as stand up goes, Frank Skinner.

[Jillyanne]

Hatch.

 

+ 1.

[Big John]

Notice how there are no funny women out there, not now not ever. FACT.

[LVSaint]

Lenny Henry

[Colinjb]

Billy Connelly

Lee Evans

 

And the worst: Sarah Silverman, jesus christ it was chronic.

[Kadeem Hardison]

stewart lee

 

Correct.

 

Frankie Boyle and Jimmy Carr are **** live. One trick ponies who should stick to panel shows/hosting.

[Evo]

Reginald D. Hunter.

[1976_Child]

Gordon Brown. Some of his budget forecasts are priceless.

[TopGun]

I like Frankie. Very infectious.

[SuperMikey]

Favourites

Dylan Moran

Russell Brand (but only on his radio shows)

Frankie Boyle (but he repeats all his Mock the Week material live and is retiring next year)

Jillyanne (even though she doesn't do it intentionally)

 

Least Favourite

Andy Parsons (unfunny tw*t)

Hugh Dennis (even unfunnier tw*t)

Michael McIntyre (the least funny tw*t in the whole f*cking world)

[Arizona]

My favourite has to be Bill Bailey. Can't believe he hasn't even been mentioned yet. If anyone has seen his Tinselworm show, the part where he talks about having the Pink Panther tune as the national anthem, at the opening ceremony of the olympics, absolutely had me in stitches. The whole DVD is brilliant, as is Part Troll and his appearances on QI and NMTB.

 

Also like Peter Kay, Franky Boyle, Jason Manford and Jimmy Carr. Type "Franky Boyle Diana" into youtube and watch the Mock The Week clip that comes up.

 

As for the ones I can't stand:

Alan Carr - Just so irritatingly camp it gets under my skin and they don't make water hot enough to get it off.

Russell Brand - It seems a lot of women find him "funny" when what they really have in mind is some bizarre sexual fantasy. The guy is a brainless attention seeking f**kwit.

Michael McIntyre - I just don't see the attraction. Some of his material is passable, but is delivery is just dreadful. Always laughing and grinning smugly at his own jokes and making a big deal out of things which just aren't funny.

Jo Brand - Complete one trick pony.

[CB Fry]

Warren Mitchell as Alf Garnett - best comedy ever.

 

 

This is my favourite post ever on this website.

Stewart Lee

Tim Minchin

Daniel Kitson

[Ponty]

Gerv, Smerch & Pilkoids

[Dog]

Lenny Henry
