Dave ChappelleChris RockRichard PryorD' Ali G Show (from HBO) I don't know the guys name?

I like the uncensored comedy shows on HBO or Showtime. They make me laugh the most vs. censored stuff on regular TV.

Ali-G's name is Sacha Baron Cohen, and he is freakin hilarious. I remember watching his stuff a few years ago in Germany.

I was under the assumption that this thread was aimed toward stand-up comedians?? If not, then I could list a million funny actors.

I saw Mitch live... Funniest mofo evar.

Weve got a pretty good comedy club and Ive gone a couple of times.

Only 2 stand out... Mitch for being the funniest and DL Hughgley for being the most disapointing.

I also thought his Live on Broadway was funny.

You guys need to watch some old-school Redd Foxx...

I also like old-school routines from Cosby, Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, Gallagher....

Ron White and Larry TCB are hilarious.

I don't find Will Farrell to be at all humorous. He makes me want to hit him.

On a side note: You guys ever watch "Whose Line Is It Anyway"? THAT is a collection of comic geniuses. Great show, and all improvised. Drew Carey is the least talented of the bunch!

Have you seen a movie called Harlem Nights that was funny with Red Foxx, Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy?

And Yeah I love to watch Whose Line is it Anyway Ryan and Collin are hilarious.

I agree, that show is great. Drew Cary is a crappy host though (and actor, IMO). The host from the old version (filmed in England, I believe) was much better. You used to be able to see reruns of that version all of the time on Comedy Central, don't know if they do it anymore cause I hardly ever have time to watch tv.

Wayne Brady is an improv genius.

They do a skit called "song styles" where he's given a topic and a style, and he has to improv a song on the spot - he did one in the style of Eminem one night that was So damn funny.

Colin and Ryan are epic when they do "scenes from a hat".

It's still on Comedy Central in reruns.

He really is, his lyrics to songs almost seem too good to be improv.

My favorite skit they do is props, but they harldy ever do it.

Ever see the one where he and the other guy (not sure of his name, he's not a permanent fixture) do the RUN-DMC song style? Riotous.
