Kid Gleason Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 09:59 PM) I have many favorites. Two that come to mind immediately are Carlin and Steven Wright. Many others have been mentioned. One comedian this thread reminded me of is a guy I saw maybe 15 years ago. His name is Chris Bliss. I remember two things about him.... His act involved the crowd a lot, talking to people, asking them personal questions and making jokes off of that info. About 30 minutes into his show, a girl walked in late to join her friends, who were seated right up front. He stopped the show, made fun of her for just getting there and then decided to help her out. He said he would recap the show so far. He then proceeded to rattle everything he had discussed in a matter of a minute or two. He mentioned everyone in the audience he had interacted with and told her what they said and called them by name. All in the exact order it happened. This was not a canned act so this recap was unbelievable. The second and most impressive thing about him is he ends his act juggling like you have never seen before. Click on the link below to see his performance. Trust me it is worth the look. Chris Bliss Juggling - Take the Time to Watch! That's really friggin' cool! The first part sounds familiar, but I have never seen his juggling. As for David Cross, he scares me. He's hysterical, no doubt about it, but he's one of those guys I would be afraid to meet. You just know that if you make one mistake or say something stupid he had the ability to just humiliate you in no time and leave you a wimpering mess.

Nokona Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 The drugs just made Mitch a better comic. Honestly, who could have thought of the "i got an antfarm. They didnt grow s***. If i pulled their limbs off they'd become little snowmen." f***ing aweseme. Mitch + David Cross = unbelieveable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I really like Jim Gaffigan. Was also a Mitch fan (RIP). Sometimes I will try out the XM online free 3 day preview just to listen to the comedy channel when in need of a laugh or someone new to look up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerfan Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 (edited) To me nobody can beat Bill Cosby. He was (and still is) funny without cursing up a storm (which really can't be said about many comics these days). His stories are classic too. Like the one about going to the Dentist for instance, or the hilarious 3 part Noah's Ark bit. Just some great great stuff with him.
