My top 2 would have to be Jack Dee and Dave Chappelle.

The sickest top 2 would have to be Frankie Boyle and Chubby Brown, although chubbs is the man.

Actually Bill Hicks would have to be up there too

Joseph and Mary stood at the desk in the Inn, the receptionist places a small wooden box on the counter, Joseph says actually, I asked to see the manager"

No contest...Steven Wright followed by the late Richard Pryor.

And just for this, Greg Davies......

Seinfeld is good

Andrew Dice Clay is good 10% of the time...

George Carlin is good 11% of the time...

And just for this, Greg Davies......

It's so true about the Thai massage. First one I had I was too polite to say it hurts like a bitch, never again.

But then "all time" includes time yet to come, so how can we know?

I saw "The Little Waster" on telly in the 80's but, being a "Soft Southerner", I couldn't understand what he was saying!

Eddie Izzard...

Bill Hicks...

But for pure genius, Ronnie Barker RIP

The Pub Landlord

Billy Connolly

Chris Rock

And some of the Irish ones I can't remember.

Who?

I have to go with Robin Williams as he is the only comedian to make me laugh so hard that I thought I was going to piss my pants...

There have been lots of really good comedians over the years, each with their own approach to making the audience laugh... Some make you laugh by railing at the machine like Carlin or Hicks... Some used bawdy language to get a laugh like Lenny Bruce or Redd Foxx... Some played the racial stereotypes like Eddie Murphy or Richard Pryor... Then you get the duets like Martin and Lewis, Hope and Crosby, Amos and Andy... Then come the purely silly guys like Steve Martin and Robin Williams... Then you have to consider the old timers, like Red Skelton, Jack Benny, Jackie Gleason, Danny Kaye, Don Rickles, Rodney Dangerfield, and on and on and on... Nothing better than a good laugh to brighten the day...

Frank Carson (its the way I tell 'em)

Dave Allen

Billy Connoly

pure filth - has to be Roy Chubby Brown.

Mike Yarwood, although I'm not sure he is actually a stand up comedian.

Brilliant Impersonator though.

try mike reid and see if you can keep a straight face

Serdar Somuncu for the German speaking folks...

I find few American comedians funny,Robin Williams,Richard Pryor, are the exception, the others

seem to think shouting makes them funny,I suppose British humour is strange to them.

Rodney Dangerfield makes me laugh even after watching him over and over on movies like Back to School. He had his own style that kind of made even the biggest looser feel that life is not so bad.... No respect

A little flag to give you hope!

Some hilarious banter here, maybe not stand-up but some great wit.

From which part of Germany are you from Chef? If you can speak German, this one's for you:

some finds on spew tube

Robin Williams, pure genius.

Billy Connolly a lot of his shows were ad libbed.

Max Miller would have been great in his day
