Default Your Favorite Comedian

I've just been watching 'Robin Williams - Live On Broadway'. This was done in 2002, but this guy kills us.

I actually started to type in the late great Rodney Dangerfield, but then realised I didn't have Jim Carrey......

Billy Connelly is a funny bugger so I voted for him, but Robin Williams comes in at a very close second.

Billy Connelly is my favourite by a mile, Robin Williams at the Met was also a classic. Lately though my favourite is Jeff Foxworthy, just cracks me up.

The list is way too short, add to the other ommisions mentioned, Alexi Sayle and Steven Wright.

Jim Carrey, no way, the guy is about a funny as a visit to a New Delhi Street Dentist for root canal surgery without gas. :

Billy Connely gets my vote but give my Dennis Leary, Greg Giraldo or Dane Cook anyday. i cannot stand to watch robin williams cos hes always on and his style aint funny to me. billy crystal and lenny henry again just dont make me laugh and jim carrey is just getting old now.

and pretty much any black comedian especially Dave Chappelle. hes goddamn hilarious.

Your list is just Crap, this is supposed to be an Australian site and all you have up there is American Comedians.

You ever heard of the most **** funny Comedian, Rodney RUDE!!!!!

Best Aussie joke ive heard ever, even if it is toilet stuff, its as australian in comedy as it comes.
