Friday OT - Favorite comedian
- Thread starter Angie
- Start date
I definitely agree with this. It also seems like he always to point out some small good thing also.
He had a special before or right around the same time he started doing Tosh.0 that I thought had some funny. But ever since that show took off I think he saw where his fanbase was growing and just doubled-down on the douchiness in his act. Good for him and probably the right move career-wise, but its just not for me anymore.
Looks like it's on Comedy Central opposite the Kansas game on Saturday. 'Bill Cosby: Far From Finished': TV review - NY Daily News
Awesome, would definitely like to catch that. I've never seen his stand-up barring things from a handful of years ago
That I don't remember I guess. He didn't have a huge role in Back To School but this clip of him kills me every time. [video=youtube_share;Fj5k6toS7i8]http://youtu.be/Fj5k6toS7i8[/video]
I searched Wiki. :smile: I was wrong on the dates, he had already been cancelled when he was in the accident, but the show was Charlie Hoover, he played a little dude inside someone's head:

My case for Brian Regan

I enjoy Brian Regan & Jim Gaffigan. A truly funny, yet family-friendly comedian is Tim Hawkins. Here is his take on Aging Rock Stars (I love the Garth Brooks song parody at the end):

Top 5 and bottom 3:
1. Robin Williams -I can listen to his golf spiel for days
2. Louis CK -Sometimes I don't like a lot of vulgar language but for some reason, I think he does it well
3. Mitch Hedberg -His style was unmatched
4. Aziz Ansari - I think he's pretty funny and will continue to be.
5. Jim Gaffigan
Bottom: Dane Cook is awful, as is Demetri Martin, not a big Engvall fan either.

I love some that have already been mentioned a bunch, Louis CK is probably my favorite I guess, but Aziz, Mitch Hedberg are funny, sometimes I like John Mulaney.
Probably my second favorite right now is Hannibal Buress though and I haven't seen him mentioned yet, dude's hilarious.

I haven't liked any of his stuff since, but that first CC special of his came out when I was in college and my roommate and I thought it was the funniest thing ever at the time.
I agree with this.
My absolute favorite was the flip chart with just a circle on it and he says "this is a pie chart about procrastination".
Yea, its not like the charts and stuff aren't funny, they just have diminishing returns after the first time you see it.
