Completely agree with Stewart Lee as a choice, but won't choose him. My first choice is a cheeky two-for-one
Steve Coogan (As Partridge) and Chris Morris (as anything)
Reeves and Mortimer
Larry David (Curb your Enthusiasm) WARNING: Bad Language ahead!
Curb your entusiasm is a fantastic show. It all goes on the idea that if Larry does two or three small bad things (eg doesn't tip a waiter, parks in a handicap zone) they all seem to escalate and come back to bite him at the end of the show in a brilliant way.
Lol Yeah I can't believe I had forgotten about that one. That skit put Chappelle's Show on the map. Not to mention it was the first episode, or at least one of the first one's. Lol I remember when they first began the first couple of episodes Dave Chappelle kept implying that they were going to get canceled sooner or later because of their outrageous skits.
NASA has been working on a new space wing of the ISS. To become more interactive with the citizens of the world, they let them chose the name for it.comedian Stephen Colbert told his viewers to vote for 'Stephen Colbert, ' and it won!. Sadly, NASA wouldn't accept it, and now it's the 'Serenity' (yawn)
I think dave chapelle has a brilliant way of delivering his jokes. I put him on my top 5 along with demetri martin. And altho he's not in my top 5 I like tommy tiernan also, he's hysterical lol
I am a big Gene Wilder fan but he wasn't really a stand up comedian, priceless in two Mel Brooks classics though, Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles.
Also Pablo Francisco and Zach Gylifinakas(I really have no idea how to spell his name)
Pablo Francisco is probably my favorite, Richard Pryor is great too.
Here is Pablo doing his little tortilla, movie announcer skit. Classic
