Title: Your Favorite Comedian(s)
Post by: suebeeboo on Nov 29, 2006, 04:02 PM
Dragonboy, you will be proud of me - I did a search before posting a new thread (wow, I can't believe I'm talking like this, it feels so IT-ish!) and I did not find a post asking about favorite comedians, so, since I'm a curious george who enjoys learning new things from new people, I thought I'd ask the MMJ fans here who are their favorite comedians.

Mine (tho I have already discussed this with hitchhiker) are
Sam Kinison and Bill Hicks.

Jim James........I am fairly certain that the band is just a front for Jim's stand up routines.

I gotta say that I love Rowan Atkinson when he does his "performance" sketeches and monologues, but he's not really a stand-up comedian.

Yeah I used to watch that over & over again!

Granted, his movies are inconsistent but Will Farrell still makes me laugh & although he's not a comedian as such I love Vince Vaughn (Swingers, Starsky & Hutch, Wedding Crashers)

I've came to the conclusion that Ricky Gervais is the funniest man alive.  I can't wait to see 'Fame.'


I can't believe how terrible Let's Go To Prison was.  Seriously, Will Arnett starring in a Bob Odenkirk directed film.  What a piece of shit.

I'd never been to a live comedy show until a few years ago, went to see Chris Rock with my uncle at the Paramnout Theatre in Oakland. I didn't know that laughing could hurt so much!!! I've been to a few shows since then, but Rock is the King.

(Dave Chappelle can not come back soon enough)
