JFF - Who Are You Favorite Comedians?

How sad, no seems to have named Phyllis Diller, when she is by far one of the funniest women EVER to have been in entertainment.. Gosh, she was so funny!!!

As is Ralphie May...

Red Skelton (he was funny without being vulgar or profane.)
Bill Cosby. He was funny too without the vulgarity or profanity.

Rita Rudner
The guy that does the Pimp Chronicles (cant think of his name off hand)
Ralphie May
an oldie but a goodie (Andy Griffith)

Hands down Brian Regan. I'm talking tears running down my face, laughing uncontrollably. And he doesn't need a backup F bomb to accentuate his humor. He's hysterical.

I want everyone reading this to go look up 'Brian Regan Cannonball wound' on Youtube and check him out. He's hysterical!

I prefer clean comedians!

Brian Regan
Jim Gaffigan
Bill Cosby
Ellen

Bill Cosby, hands down.

I don't enjoy the comedians who use the f word every other word in a sentence. If they'd leave all that out, what they say might be funny.

I admit that I cannot stand Kathy Griffin. If I were a man interviewing her, she would make my skin crawl, proprositioning me in the middle of the interview on TV. I just think she is so offensive. (Sorry...)

Phyllis Diller
Carol Burnett
Richard Pryor
Mel Brooks
Gene Wilder
Chevy Chase
Bill Cosby
Gilda Radner
Cloris Leachman
Madeline Kahn

Those are just a few that came to mind.

I find most of the older comedians funny, they didn’t need to use vulgar language or be disgusting to be funny.

Kathy Griffin. She crosses the line, but she is hysterical, IMHO. =)

I know she doesn't do much stand up anymore but, I LOVE Ellen Degeneres. Such a smart butt! :)

Jon Lovitz ~ love him
Dennis Miller
Jim Gaffigan

Jerry Seinfeld
Jim Gaffigan
Eddie Murphy
Kathy Griffin
Ellen
Rondell Sheridan (hubby and I got engaged at his show on our college campus years ago)

Bill Cosby

John Pinette ( naynay)

Mitch hedburg ( took me a while to get him but now I think he was hysterical)

chelsea handler ( WHY I have no idea she has NO talent what so ever, but she still amuses me)

Ron white, Larry the Cable Guy and the whole crew That was some CLassic blue collar comedy.

jeanne robertson very funny and classy, love her accent

Anita REnfroe -- THE MOM SONG!!!

and you win the prize for Best JFF Question In a LONG time!!

Jim Gaffigan
Ron White
Will Ferrell
Louis CK

Can't think of very many right now, but here are a few.

Jim Gaffigan
Ron White
Henry Cho
Wanda Sykes

Bill Cosby is my #1, and will probably always be so

Ellen DeGeneres - she is just such a joyful person and usually keeps her comedy pretty clean

Chris Rock (unless he's doing his little bit on abortion--that's over the line, but his other stuff is hilarious)

Colin Quinn - his history of the world show was very clever

Jimmy Fallon (wish the monologue on his show was longer, but I'd prefer for him to keep the jokes funny than to get mediocre stuff like Letterman and Leno do)

Jimmy Kimmel - I didn't really think he was THAT funny until he hosted this year's "White House Correspondants' Dinner." He killed it!

Maz Jobrani - a Persian-American comedian who is very famous amongst Middle Easterners, both here and abroad. Even my very white bread parents find him to be hysterical, because they have been exposed to enough of Middle Eastern culture to get most of the jokes.

Lisa Lampanelli
Bill Burr
Gabriel Iglasisas (sp)
Aisha Tyler
Bill Engvall/Ron White/Jeff Foxworthy/Larry
Jeff Dunham

and Kathy Griffin!

Louis CK, Conan O'Brien, John Stewart, Stephen Colbert

Jerry Seinfeld, the only one I laugh a lot with.

i love wanda sykes lol. i also like eddie izzard, mitch hedburg, jim gaffigan, lewis black, and jeff dunham! i can't believe it but i don't think i saw his name on there. he's a little over exposed at this point but i just think he's adorable. and i absolutely love bill cosby - we just got a comedy FM station in town about a year or two ago and i have been loving it!

Dane Cook hands down...my fave.

Kevin Hart cracks me up.
And various others listed below.

Matter of fact I am on Pandora here are work listening to "Today's Comedy" station....

My favorite of all time (although he got to kind of be a really bitter old man in the later years) was George Carlin. "Icebox Man" is by far one of the funniest sketches EVER.

My next favorite is Bill Engvall. His "Here's Your Sign" CD makes me laugh so hard I cry. :)

Jon Stewart, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld (saw him live about 2 years ago!) Jon Oliver (saw him live too, last New Year's Eve!) Ellen DeGeneres, Kathy Griffin, Rosie O'Donnell, David Cross, Louis CK...I'm sure I'm forgetting someone...
And of course, the master, Robin Williams! My BFF and I got to see him perform in a small club in San Francisco a few years ago and we practically peed out pants we were laughing so hard!!!

Gabriel Iglesias has me laughing so hard I cry.
George Lopez (saw him live, had me LAUGHING!)
Kathy Griffin (saw her live...omg, so funny)
Bill Cosby (my parents used to have his records and I would sit in front of the record player and laugh)
Sinbad

Ellen
Dana Carvey (when his language is censored!)
Dennis Miller
