Love Rik Mayall but would have to say Bill Hicks was the greatest as he made you laugh and to question everythign and think for yourself.

Sinbad may be one of the most slept on comedians EVER. Just because he doesn't use profanity doesn't mean he isn't funny. I dare you to watch any of his 90s HBO specials and don't laugh. Hell he did a few come back specials on Comedy Central the past few years and he's just as funny.

I love Sinbad. He is very underrated.

My list...

Richard Pryor

Redd Foxx

Bernie Mac

Sinbad

George Carlin

Johnathan Winters

Eddie Murphy

Eddie Griffin

Bob Hope

Jon Stewart

Bill Maher

Robin Harris

Steve Martin

Steve Harvey

George Wallace

Flip Wilson

Moms Mabley

Dick Gregory

Cheech and Chong

Laurel and Hardy

Martin and Lewis

Abbott and Costello

"Velcro: what a rip-off."

"I've just been on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday. I'll tell you what, never again."

"I went out on a date with Simile. I don't know what I metaphor."

"I was reading a book... 'the history of glue' - I couldn't put it down."

"So I got home, and the phone was ringing. I picked it up, and said ’Who’s speaking please?’ And a voice said ’You are.’

"I was in the Army once and the sergeant said to me ‘What does surrender mean?’ I said ‘I give up!"

"I’ve got a friend who has got a butler whose left arm is missing; serves him right"

"Albinos; you can’t say fairer than that"

"So I said to this train driver ‘I want to go to Paris’ He said ‘Eurostar?’ I said ‘I’ve been on telly, but I’m no Dean Martin"

"Beware of Alphabet Grenades; if you throw them, it could spell disaster"

"I saw this advert that said ‘Television for sale, £1, volume stuck on full’ I thought ‘I can’t turn that down"

"My mate said to me ‘Can you tell me what you call someone who comes from Corsica?’ I said ‘Cors-i-can!’

"I’ve got a friend who’s fallen in love with two school bags; he’s bisatchel"

I’ll tell you what I love doing more than anything; trying to pack myself in a small suitcase. I can hardly contain myself

"I used go out with an anaesthetist; she was a local girl"

"Exit signs; they’re on the way out aren’t they?"

"I’ll tell you what makes my blood boil; crematoriums"

"I’m not very good at magic; I can only do half of a trick. Yes, I’m a member of the Magic Semi-circle"

"I went to a pet shop. I said ‘Can I buy a goldfish?’ The guy said ‘Do you want an aquarium?’ I said ‘I don’t care what star sign it is’"

And he goes on..and on...like the break o dawn

breakneck speed gag after gag...

T add:

Bill Hicks - from the US (Relentless was bang on the money...The Carlin of the 90s) and he played really well here in the UK

Finally someone mentioned him. Almost unbelievable it took so long.

Carlin predicted Trump.

Jon Stewart
