joeg Posted December 9 Author Report Share Posted December 9 dana carvey is definately up there...i was thinking adam sandler... hes just got a way about him thats hilarious...Robin williams is a better actor than a comedian... i'm not really taken by his comedy, but i loved him in good will hunting... chris rock has his moments... i'll definately watch his act if i'm flipping channels and hes on...steve zabriskie is a local comedian, but hes pretty funny... specializes in situational comedy, and improv... things like that...

rocksteadyct Posted December 9 Report Share Posted December 9 wow eminem, he might be funny but i dont think id classify him as one of the funniest people alive.Id have to go with the cast of Upright Citizens Brigade. Unrivaled in their hilarity. that was the most fucked up funny show that ever made it to cable. Chris rock is also hella funnyanother would be Dave chapelle from half baked, watch him on a talk show or something, hes one of those people that is jsut naturally funny in everything they say..his movies could be more funny though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeg Posted December 9 Author Report Share Posted December 9 oh, and i just remembered... the cast of kids in the hall was a great comedic team... i think at moments it surpassed SNL (lourne micheals more well-known project) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magellanmax Posted December 9 Report Share Posted December 9 You may be right, I used to watch him on channel 9 years back and I started listening to his radio show the last four years.....maybe if I had seen him back then I coulda made a better judgement.....but he's original with his stuff though crude and annoying at times..LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fran Posted December 9 Report Share Posted December 9 Howard Stern (Someone said they didn't think he's funny anymore, do we listen to the same program?......besides, even if he isn't anymore he was long enough to deserve the top 5)Chris RockRichard PryorJim Carey (Not even his movies......but him, if you ever watch or read his interviews he's fucking hysterical).Tom GreenHonorable mention goes to Ozzy...heheh...all I have to do is look at him and I laugh.Mike Meyers, Jimmy Fallon and George Carlin are funny too.......although George Carlin's a little too pissed off these days.

I saw Jim Norton at the Comedy Cellar on Saturday, he definately was NOT funny. The crowd knew, and I think he did too. His act wasn't even funny, it was just raunchy, not really funny at all.
