Three. Don't forget Redd Foxx.

As a TV show centerpiece, he was meh . . . as a stand-up, he once walked off stage when he saw the low attendance in the audience.

Richard Pryor is one of the greatest...I doubt many open minded people would argue. I would also put Cosby up there....along with white guys like Williams, Carlin and about 5-6 others.

The idea that Murphy, Rock or Chapelle even come close is such a huge fail that it says more about your views and preferences than anything else. Frankly, it's says your view on comedy is just as narrow as someone who says ethnic comedians are bad.

I've listened to all the ones you've mentioned and I laughed maybe four or five times in total. And I'd say the same about most women comedians. Sorry if I don't live in idiocracy.

Not funny. The writing sucked and his impression wasn't entertaining. Have a down vote

I laughed as much at that as I did watching the first ten minutes of Saving Private Ryan.

Was I entertained for 60 seconds? Meh.
Did I laugh? NO
Did I close the window before it was done? Yes

Also, I quote Chris Rock all the time. 25 seconds of your time for a great joke about the two malls.

I agree, the comedy itself wasn't funny. Ethnic comedians never are.

I went with your favs and the screen name. I appreciate intelligent humor too but it does not have to be just word play and the like. Some of the early Richard Pryor stuff with his characters, situations and irony are really well done. I don't like gratuitous cursing and sex talk that much....It just gets old...fast.

All personal choice.
