Who's your favorite comedian and why? Louis C.K. Is my favorite comedian of all time. He's got a really crude sense of humor that I find absolutely hilarious (but most people find it offensive .) <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xL9xCWphV8s"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xL9xCWphV8s" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7N6Phmale_Q&feature=related"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7N6Phmale_Q&feature=related" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CzbURUrgQao&feature=related"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CzbURUrgQao&feature=related" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> Mitch Hedberg is another favorite of mine, his one liners were absolutely some of the best comedy I had ever heard, and it's a shame that he died because his comedy was fantastic. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/J-zFQ9fOTSU"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/J-zFQ9fOTSU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> Gabriel Iglecias is another great comedian. He uses real life stories and experiences and makes them even more hilarious by adding his own sound effects (Extremely good sound effects as well.) <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/MafwO4VwbsM"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/MafwO4VwbsM" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> Christopher Titus is also another comedian I enjoy just because I love listening to his twisted stories about his life. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SP1kKcZtnkQ"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SP1kKcZtnkQ" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
Hmm just watched some Louis CK on youtube and he is pretty funny. Watched "suck a bag of dicks" and "awesome possum". I still maintain that Hedberg is much more funny though. I look for cleverness in comedians, I will still laugh at and enjoy Dane Cook and Russel Peters, but I would prefer clever and smart humor over it any day.
Agreed! Mitch Hedberg had a unique style of delivering jokes, I don't think anyone will be able to grasp how clever he actually was.
Ilike Dave Chapelle as well. Also a Dutch one, Hans Teeuwen. Although I think he quite the Dutch scene and only does English pieces these days. Not sure though.
Jeff Dunham Carrot Top Dane Cook Red Skelton (Retro comedian) Jeff Dunham would have to be my favorite pick though.
Patton Oswalt for owns for the geek side http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDCjIjsZp_Y and Patrice O'Neal for all the big blackness http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNL-iDbKySU
Jeff Dunham - Awesome! Red Skelton - I have a short DVD of his, funny. Ralphie May Frank Caliendo - Great impressions.
