One of my ultimate faves is John Pinette. Guy could make me laugh any time. Seen him live twice thankfully before he sadly passed away last year.

6. Hannibal Buress

[That'sAllFolks]

1. George Carlin - not only is he extremely funny, some of his routines are simply genius. So well constructed and philosophical, I can listen to them simply for the insights.
2. Mitch Hedberg - I used to see him twice everytime he came into town. About 4x per year. He he had stayed alive and maintained his awesomeness, he might have unseated George ( but probably not)


Others in no particular order
Rodney Dangerfield
Demetri Martin
Steve Martin
Steven Wright

[Captain Flint]

In no particular order:

Jim Bruer
Jim Gaffigan
Russell Peters
Bo Burnham
Gabriel Iglesias

I might be missing some. I don't watch stand up too often but these are the ones I can think of at the top of my head that I really like.

Definitely Linda Smith

just watched Iliza Shlesinger's show over on Netflix - that was frickin' hysterical.

Anthony Jeselnik has quickly become my all time favorite comedian. Nothing is too far or too soon for him. Watched both of his specials over the past couple of days.

My favourite will always be Michael McIntyre:
