What's yours?

For me, it'd be either Steven Wright or Josh Pinette.

Douglas Adams.

Emo Phillips.

Stephen Banks.

[Moksha]

He is dead now, but it was John Belushi. Best comedy duo was Belushi and Ackroyd.

Derek Edwards always leaves me in tears of laughter.

One of my fav youtube clips is of Robin Williams and Craig Ferguson. Hysterical!

[Faded]

Love British comedies in general. Old-school favorite is Monty Pythons. Recent favorite is The IT Crowd.

But my favorite comedian is life itself. Life is hilarious!

George Carlin was hilarious when he was 'clean' like on the (Johnny Carson)Tonight show, but then I saw him on HBO and my gosh all he did was swear.

Red Skelton was probably the best of all time and never a swear word.

Yes, I am old.

Tom Lehr

Weird al

ray stevens

rooster teeth productions (their cleaner stuff anyways)

Jay Leno was pretty good... havent' watched any of his routines any time recently tho.

ok I'll show my age. Jerry Lewis and best comedy duo Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.

[MuggleMormon]

I love Dean Martin!!!!

OK. To answer the question: I have to blushingly admit it's probably Denis Leary. Louis Black runs a close second. (I work in the oilfield and hear horrible language from co-workers and customers on a daily basis so *shrugs*).

I just love stand-up in general. Loved Seinfeld and Mitch Hedburg. I like to watch Jeff Foxworthy and his gang and I liked Rosie O'Donnel when she was first starting out. Ellen Degeneres is great and so is Wanda Sykes and Bret Butler. And oh my I almost forgot Billy Crystal and Robin Williams and Whoopie Goldberg. I could go on and on.

Being in the UK my favourite stand up is Michael McIntyre - if I only had an ounce of his energy.

Eddie Izzard and Robin Williams...there's another guy with a DVD called the Epitome of Hyperbole and he's pretty funny to...wish I could think of his name right this minute but I'm drawing a blank.

Ricky Gervais but Dave Chappelle is a close second.
