raVen_image Posted December 9, 2001 Posted December 9, 2001 Maybe this topic has been done to death (and if it has...please accept my apologies for being redundant)...but I can't see it anywhere on this board) Who are your favorite stand-up (or otherwise) comedians? Mine are: Bill Cosby (because he focussed on school-years and the concerns of aging so well ...i.e. "49", and "Himself") Sam Kinison(sp?) (because he captured failed relationships perfectly, and so raw) Chris Rock ( because he identifies the conflicts of life, as I see them) Eddy Murphy (I laugh harder and harder at his depiction of the family picnic every time I see it. Family relatives...uuuggghhh) I just realized, I like a lot of Black comedians...who are your favorites?
Rogue Nine Posted December 9, 2001 Posted December 9, 2001 Currently...Rex Navarrete. Y'all prolly wouldn't know him because he's a Filipino.
Guest SlashAndBurn Posted December 9, 2001 Posted December 9, 2001 Dennis Leary hands down! No cure for Cancer is on of the best commedy cds I've ever heard. Chris Rock, Louis Black, George Carlin and Henry Rollins(sort of a commedian) are up there on the list too.
raVen_image Posted December 9, 2001 Author Posted December 9, 2001 Damn! I knew I'd miss somebody. George Carlin (for his observations on the use of language and euphamisms) ...Brilliant!! Leary and Rollins are up there, too. Thanx for jogging my brain, SlashAndBurn
Guest Supreme Warlord Posted December 9, 2001 Posted December 9, 2001 No way people not these stupid "comedian":D THis is who is the best comedian *drum rolls* CHRIS TUCKER!!!!! he is so funny!
Young David Posted December 9, 2001 Posted December 9, 2001 Johny Kraaikamp sr. and Peter Lusse ... Too bad for you they are dutch
duder Posted December 10, 2001 Posted December 10, 2001 im gonna plump for billy connoly, for those who dont him, you havnt lived. Eddie murphy always makes me laugh. And a special mention for the Coen brothers who write the most original comedy dialogue of our day and age!!!
Guest SlashAndBurn Posted December 10, 2001 Posted December 10, 2001 Chris Tucker??? I agree Warlord...he is funny but I dont think so when he's working by himself. The Rush Hour movies were great though!!!

The Rush Hour movies were great though!!! I agree with this. Chris Tucker's stand up is average. He's funny in movies though. Eddy Murphy's Delirious makes me crack up every time I hear it.

He realy is a good comedian. and next to that (when he is not swearing and all) Youp van het Hek. And yes all... they are Dutch too. Americans: Seinfeld
