#3 Hicks(self explanatory)
Just wasn't funny.
I appreciate him for what he was. He was an intelligent man. He was an above average speaker.
But he was more of a lecturer than a comedian.

That's fair. There have been a lot of people listed that I don't find funny.

How did Dave Chappelle not make so many people's lists? I think he's the funniest comedian of all time (and his approach is way more enjoyable than Carlin's arrogance).

No "Catchphrase Comedian" should be on this list. None.

About the only thing I can give foxworthy credit for is finding an untapped demographic and exploiting the ever living shite out of it.

Someone that I have not seen listed once, and I realize not everyone enjoys his humor, but I think Ricky Gervais should be considered. I just watched his most recent stand-up on HBO and almost died, he is hilarious.

Good lists, but 2 names I have not seen are possibly one of the funniest in Eddie Izzard and one of the most overrated in Ron White.

Even after his death poor Rodney Dangerfiend still can't get ant respect.
