Who are your favorite comedians?

Mine:

Jonathan Winters

*I consider Richard Pryor to be more than a comedian, and playing on a whole other level than anyone else. A list of one, shall we say.

I'll second Trelja's Rodney Dangefield (good call Joe).
I'll add:
Steven Wright:
"I just put skylights in my living room. My upstairs neighbors are really mad"

"I went into a diner. The sign said breakfast served any time. I said fine, I'll have eggs in the 17th Century"

"I put instant rice in the microwave and went back in time"

I also like Sam Kinison and Lewis Black
Joe, you just knocked one of my top three! Steven Wright is one of the funniest comedians ever. DEFINITELY moves into my Number 2.

For me, like Rodney, I laugh so hard at his standup, I can't even remember what the jokes were. That sampling of jokes you have graciously provided to us is incredible.
Joe, you just knocked one of my top three! Steven Wright is one of the funniest comedians ever. DEFINITELY moves into my Number 2.

He's brilliant. Here are some more Stephen Wright quotes.

Jim Gaffigan is one that would be right up there for me as well.

George Carlin - His Death & Dieing talk from On The Road, one of the best ever.

Steven Wright - "I was a Caesarian born child. They say it doesn't affect me, except that whenever I leave the house, I go through the window."

Richard Jeni - If you haven't seen the HBO special, "Platypus Man", do it! Cheers,
