I come across one of those clickbait questions on this topic and after I saw Carrot Top I stopped and thought it would be an interesting OP.


What do you think?

Richard Pryor.



I love him as a comedic actor, but his stand up just isn't very funny to me. I think the cursing was shocking at the time, which is why he did so well. Also his impersonations are fantastic; however, I listened to That Ni...'s Crazy recently, and it didn't strike very many laughs out of me. 14yo me loved it, but again I think it struck that "cursing is funny" side of my teenage brain.



Eddie Murphy was hilarious though. His standups are ridiculously funny, and they didn't feel like being funny just because he cursed.

I'll say it... Matt Rife. He's lucky the lonely loser women of the world love him because he's not a great stand up comedian.

Theo Vonn stand up isn't funny, but he's hilarious riffing with someone else. He's so quick witted

Tracy Morgan. He does nothing for me. I will never understand his appeal.

I am a fan of stand up in general. I also listen to multiple podcasts that are comedian-centric. Never heard of this dude until recently. And that was just facebook memes about women liking him and their husbands bitching. Nobody I asked had either. Seems like his team put together a brilliant marketing plan via social media to get people to look him up and pad the YouTube views.

Almost all female comedians. That's not to say women can't be funny. Tina Fey, Sharon Horgan, Ellie Taylor are three hilarious women, just to name a few. But I generally don't find female comedians funny.
