Good comedy

I'm big comedy fan and i was wondering maybe someone could suggest some comedians or comedy shows (from comedycentral or somewhere else)

i've watched most of the Chappelle Show and some episodes from Mind of Mencia and Whose Line is It Anyway. Is there any talented people left?

go look for clips of russell peters he is hilarious

Umm Richard Pryor, Dane Cook

Yeah, Russell Peters is funny, Dave Chappelle, and this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whGVaLoI ... =2&t=t&f=b

Ya the impressions guy is great, but I think the greatest impressions guys is Frank Caliendo, the problem is theres only like 3 different videos out there of him after that its just all repetitive, but he really is fantastic.

My two favourite stand ups for the past couple years have been Dane Cook....and Lewis Black. Dane's expresivness and physical comedy is unparalled in current standup. There hasn't been anyone as neurotic as lew black since Denis Leary.

Those who are into "my mamma used to beat my ass so bad" and "white people do this..black people do that" jokes should check out B.E.T's comic view. I've been a huge fan of standup comedy for about 7 or 8 years now.

No, i hate comedy. Laughing is an awful reminder of why people are idiots. Why would you want to laugh anyway? Laughing is stupid, and comedy just brings me that. Why ask if we like comedy? I would laugh at you but all i can muster is my non-laughing-comedy-hating expression -

Nah. But seriously i loved Eddie Murphy. There's something about the way he does things that's funny. Richard Pryor is even better. Aussie Carl Barron gets a few chuckles out of me by his little ways of relating to people and making fun of the little things in life.

I watched Eddie Izzard once. He's a transvestite or something. Dad showed me and i was like WTF, but he turned out pretty good.

Demetri Martin is one-dimensional, but fucking awesome He's the italian looking guy with the nose and the giutar.

EDIT: Lol, i just found some Demetri Martin on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GydbEUAA5Mg

Not hilarious or anything. But he has the best anecdotes ever. Seriously.

I love comedy... aside from George Bush, Dave Chappelle and Drew Carey are two of my other favorite comedians.

I love comedy... aside from George Bush

I love standup but I never really had a favorite comedian. Plus I usually just catch em on comedy shows like Premium Blend or Comedy Central Presents. I did get to see a couple of Chris Rock DVD's before and they were good. And also some clips of some other guy on the internet. For some reason, I'm more partial to the Latino comedians making fun of their own race. I think it's because of some Filpino similarities.

i watched Carlos Mencia's act on hbo or some shit and it was pretty funny. I still watch In Living Color though, they had some good shit on there.

Comedy is funny becaus eof Dave Chappelle, Richard prior, Eddiy Murphy, Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence, and Dave Chappelle but Dave is a Pwner.

you cant go by Family Guy-best cartoon comedy atm

Family Guy or American Dad.
Most people only like Family Guy though.

comedies great, i love listenin to kevin bloody wilson hes a legend

you cant go by Family Guy-best cartoon comedy atm

What about south park? Family Guy used to be funny before they came back ...the new episodes aren't as funny.

Dane Cook , Frank Caliendo , Carlos Mencia , and Jim Norton are all hilarious comics.

I used to like Dane Cook. Don't like him as much as I used to though.

Lewis Black is great, as is Denis Leary, Chappelle is pretty good.
Mitch Hedberg is awesome, but you either love him or hate him or think hes ok. (his words)

And of course theres always Pryor, Carlin, Eddie Murphy and those legends

Comedies are great, but I strongly dislike those comedians that make themselves stupid so people can laugh at their stupidity.

i think that is y they are comedians.

As I read the poll I wondered to myself if theres anyone who really doesnt like comedy, I'd believe almost everyone did. 18-0 agrees with me so far.

Akmal Saleh. Hes gold.

Kinda a one sided question. Everyone loves comedy, even the emo's.

Whose Line Is It Anyway Mochrie and Brady are super talented. Umm other than that most of what I would recommend has been mentioned by previous posters.

I think Isiah Thomas is pretty funny
