After seeing all of his work up until about a year ago (I have a thing about being complete), I have to agree with you on Jeff Dunham... But I still LOVE Achmed the Dead Terrorist.
Oh, and I love Eddie Izzard, too.
I challenge all of you!

I think comedy is largely based on taste (peace to you all!), so I can't say who I think is worst (although Sandra Bernhard is high on my list).
But I think [East] Indian-Canadian comic Russell Peters is HILARIOUS, side-splittingly so. If you haven't checked him out, please do so. You really WILL be ROFL... your head, butt, and various other sundry parts... off.
Peace!

Mr. Falcon
alot of you mentioned Ricky Gervais as a favorite. I agree the man is brilliant. I also suspect I'm a little biased towards him because so many JWs consider him "filthy" when they are just too stupid to recognize his genius.
oh yeah, Adam Corolla is great too.

Falcon,
Ricky is a comedy genius! The problem is JW's like many other Christians, cannot take the stick out of their arses long enough to enjoy a good joke. (As a Christian myself, I can say this) LOL

I love LARRY THE CABLE GUY he reminds me of my favorite uncle of all time. The others I would agree with. My favorite comedian bar none right now, is Daniel Tosh.

Mr. Falcon
good responses, everybody! keep em coming.
QUESTION: who here thinks that Dennis Leary rips off of the legendary Bill Hicks (RIP)?

Dennis has his own thing for sure. Comedy works by stepping through the generations. It can be argued that all comedians are plagiarizers by design.
