For me.

Love. (not in order, well..the first two are)

Louis CK - I've seen his standups Chewed Up, Hilarious, and Live at the Beacon Theater. All three were amazing but Hilarious was my personal favorite. He's so relatable in that's he's just the average guy that happens to be hilarious. His delivery is really good too. His show Louie is also equally hilarious in all it's depressing glory. My favorite comedian by far.

Katt Williams - Such a funny comedian. Seen Pimp Chronicles Pt.1 and It's Pimpin Pimpin. Pimp Chronicles could be the greatest stand up of all time. Wayyyy to funny. He has the best delivery out of any comedian.

Donald Glover - I saw his Comedy Central Presents special and I was really surprised how much I bursted out laughing at this guy. This guy is a good actor, rapper, and comedian. Really talented, I just wish I could do one of those for a living.

Daniel Tosh - Completely Serious was pretty funny I thought. He's not on the level of Katt Williams and CK in my opinion in terms of standup but nonetheless he's really funny, my fourth favorite comedian.

Chris Rock - Bring the Pain was hilarious, his bit about Niggas vs Black people was arguably one of the greatest bits of all time. I think he's decreased in humor as time has passed though because one of his more recent stand-ups, (can't remember the name and don't feel like looking it up right now), wasn't nearly as funny.

Dave Chappelle - I've only saw one of his stand-ups, Killing Them Softly, it was hilarious. Still never seen his 2004 stand-up. His show was a masterpiece. It's sad that he had to go off and disappear like that.



Meh

Kevin Hart - I've seen a lot of this guy, from his leading roll in Soul Plane to I'm a Grown Little Man to Seriously Funny to Laugh at My Pain. I hate to say it but he is a little overrated. Don't get me wrong he is a good comedian, I just don't think of him as highly at a lot of other people. I'm A Grown Little Man was his best stand-up, btw.

Jo Koy - I've only seen one stand-up from him, had America or American in the title or something, maybe some of you know what I'm talking about. Anyways, it was alright. I haven't seen enough of him to judge too much

Patrice O'Neal - Elephant in the Room was pretty funny. I don't think he was on the level as the guys I've mentioned above. I feel bad saying that now that he's passed though, R.I.P Patrice.

Paul Mooney - this guy is funny but I wish he would do things other than race jokes. If I wanted to see never ending race jokes and funny race commentary I'd go on ihate(insertrace).com He has good material he's just too linear and sometimes he gets out of hand and I'm just like "Paul, chill."


Hate

Lisa Lampanelli - only thing she does is say nasty shit, talk about black c0cks and be racist at the same time. I don't get what people see in her.

Dane Cook - I'm so glad I haven't heard of this guy in a while because he is the definition of mediocre comedy. The thing is, I don't think he's a horrible comedian. I can chuckle at a few of his drawn out overly energetic "jokes". But the fact that so many people dubbed him as hilarious and a great comedian is beyond aggravating.


Jeff Dunham - I don't actually hate him, I just don't really think his whole venquilitrist act is that funny. A lot of people really like him though, maybe it's just not my type of humor

Larry the Cable Guy - He's really not funny. His stand-ups suck and all his movies flop. The best thing he ever did was be the voice of Mater in Cars, which was one of Disney's worst movies. Redneck comedians suck.



Who are your favorite/lease favorite comedians? Tell why if you want. Suggest me some good stand-ups if you want. Haven't seen a good new stand-up in a while.


Also, who is that white comedian that talks in third person as the audience after his jokes? He's pretty funny too but I can't remember his name.

Edit: ^ Nevermind, figured out, Jim Gaffigan - he has a unique style of comedy and is pretty funny. I don't know if I'd put him in my Love or Meh category though.

Dunno who you're talking about exactly, but Conan does it way too often to be funny. Like, every single joke he tells, he has to do a cartoony impression of the audience saying it sucked.

It's not Conan, by the way, going off on a tangent, I don't really consider Conan a traditional comedian. Late night comedians are meh. Conan is better than most though. Anyways, this guy usually makes an impression of the audience not really getting the joke or getting offended by it, 99.999% in a womenly voice.

This guy has a bit where he uses an audience women voice getting offended saying "Hey I like bologna Mr., your act is bologna, my bologna has a first name and its......GAFFIGAN"

JIM GAFFIGAN, that's who it is haha

Favs:

George Lopez - his jokes are those that you ROFL because you're like "damn that's true!"  He isn't afraid to make fun of his own race either.

Pablo Fransisco - he seems to make up his own stuff and it doesn't seem as cliche as most. Plus he does sound effects that are good so it make painting the mental picutre easier. If you haven't seen him I recommend it. I think one of his first shows are on Netflix. Go go go!

Dave Chapelle - his calm demeanor and unique stories are hillarious.

Kat Williams - I don't like loud people but his deliveries are funny and another one that you say "damn that's true!"

The original Kings of Comedy - all 4 were funny and hella old school. If you haven't seen their def comedy jam stuff from the early 90's then you're missing out. But id say their bit from the movie is trueely classic.

Richard Pryor - no explination necessary

I think that's about all I listen to. Anyone else to me is meh and I don't care for.

George Lopez is probably my favorite latino comedian. That isn't saying too much though, it's basically saying I think he's in the meh category since every other one I know is terrible (Carlos Mencia, Gabriel Iglesias) Though I don't think I've ever seen him do an actual stand-up if he's ever done that.

I never even heard of Pablo Fansisco.

I've never seen anything from Richard Pryor though people call him a legendary comedian. I might have to look into him.

Kings of Comedy's humor just isn't really my taste, I don't know, it's like older people humor. R.I.P Bernie Mac though. Bernie Mac Show was funny.

I was going to ask about Ralphie May, btw. I've never seen anything from him but I've heard of him a lot.

Gabriel Iglesias is friggin hilarious. Also, Louie is the second best show on TV, closely following Wilfred. Love Louis CK's humor. Donald Glover is probably my second favorite behind Louis CK.

Fack Dane Cook, Carlos Mencia, and all wimminz comedians

Gabriel Iglesias should turn in his fake ass Mexican card. That fool is the worse comedian I've ever heard.

Bio: The way SBC approaches combat may be seen by some to be cowardly or dishonorable, but in reality SBC deals strictly with what is practical.  After all, the best way to not be impaled by a broadsword is to be out of its reach entirely.

Instead of meeting her foes head-on, SBC prefers to use a bow and arrows to fell her enemies from a (safe) distance.  For those occasions lacking a sufficiently large battlefield, SBC uses her knowledge of the magic arts to cloak herself in shadow and flanks her targets, quietly slitting the throats of the men in the back of enemy lines with her silver dagger.  Should the situation become too hostile for a lightly armored warrior such as herself, she will flee from the battlefield and live to fight another day.  After all, a dead warrior is no use to anyone.

I like Demetri Martin. He can be an acquired taste, though.
