Favorite Comedian(s)? Here's my favorites off the top of my head and in no particular order: Dave Chappelle Eddie Griffin Gabriel Iglesias - Gabriel is awesome because of the sound-effects he makes! look him up if you haven't watched him! Steve Harvey
More that are mainly in films: Will Ferrell Will Smith (yeah, he's more of a outstanding actor than a comedian, but whenever he's in a role for comedy or just comedic relief; he's brilliant) Steve Carrell Jim Carrey
Who are your favorite comedians? Why do you like them? I know I said they aren't in particular order but Dave Chappelle is an exception. I think he's my all time favorite. Everyone else I mentioned are in no order. ”The people that will end up defining ‘Hate Speech Laws’ are the very people you don’t want to define the Hate Speech Laws” — Jordan B Peterson | |

moderatorRichard Pryor is the king of comedy imo. In no particular order... Bill Hicks Dave Chappelle George Carlin Eddie Griffin Doug Stanhope Bernie Mac Eddie Murphy Martin Lawrence "We just let people talk & say whatever they want 2 say. 9 times out of 10, trust me, what's out there now, I wouldn't give nary one of these folks the time of day. That's why I don't say anything back, because there's so much that's wrong" - P, Dec '15 | |

Richard Pryor was the first I listened to, and the GOAT (w/assist from Paul Mooney) in my book. In rough chronological order :
Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

Woody Allen in the late '60s and most of the '70s Will Smith when he was a comedian Chris Rock Katharine Hepburn Diane Keaton Baron Sasha Cohen Ben Stiller (mostly his realistic, or at least toned down, roles) Peter Sellers Joe Pesci (not exactly a comedian, but damn he was always funny, in a hardcore way) Jack Nicholson (same as Joe) Tom Hanks (tbh, I don't care about him as a dramatic actor) Conan O'Brien David Letterman Old school Monty Pyton Rowan Atkinson

I'm telling you. "Jesus is Black..." is one of the very best comedy specials ever. The thing I love about him is that he speaks 100 percent truth. Always. That's probably he did not become the huge star I feel he was destined to be. I hate to hear he is in poor health. Whenever he does leave us he will definitely be missed.
