Favourite stand up comedian?

[Lady Deathbane]

To all the guys who mentioned Patrice O'Neal, I wanna suck y'all's dick right now.

I don't watch too much stand up comedy, but other than O'Neal's work, I have enjoyed what I've seen so far from Dave Chappelle and Gabriel Iglesias.

Kevin Bridges, Frankie Boyle, Jimmy Carr, Stewart Francis and Reginald D Hunter as far as stand up goes atm.

Does Reg ever do any work in America, and is he as popular as he is over here?

Lee Evans is just amazing great at stand up and doing physical comedy at the same time.

Funny I just saw this thread today actually because my boyfriend showed me vids today of this stand up comic, Joe Rogan, (who is also a black belt in karate and is teaching the current world champ of UFC some moves) standing up to Carlos Mencia for constantly stealing material. Thought it was an interesting dilemma.

Bill hicks is the GOAT.

He is up there.

Russell Brands is shit. Do not mention him in this thread please.

its because all the ones i know on that list are british and haven't broken america yet and probably never will especially frankie boyle as he has retired now but you should definately check them out.

Frankie Boyle, Russell Howard and Jack something. The one that's always miserable.

Stand-up comedy sucks. Anyone can read jokes written by people they are paying.

If I had to pick one then Sean Lock is OK.

What a moronic thing to say. The majority of good comedians write their own shit, and even without that stand up is extremely difficult to master. I would love to see you memorise an hours worth of material for ten thousand people and then perform it without pissing your pants.

My current faves are Bill Burr, Frankie Boyle, Jim Gaffigan and Louis CK. Russell Brand even getting mentioned for the GOAT has me in stitches.:dawg:

Bill Burr is awesome
