1. Eddie Murphy is my #1 by default. Delirious was the first stand up I ever watched. I was in 5th or 6th grade and remember laughing my arse off.

2. Bernie Mac was always funny to me.

3. George Carlin was hilarious.

4. Don Rickles was a trip.

5. Richard Pryor should be in everyone's top 5.

6. Jim Norton is pretty goddamn funny.

7. Chris Rock.. Come on? You don't like Chris Rock?

8. Steve Harvey.. This dude is funny as hell.

9. Kevin Hart is funny.

10. Rodney Dangerfield.


I never thought Bill Cosby was funny. I didn't like the whole "I don't have to curse to be funny" bullshite.

Sarah Silverman is funny. Aziz Ansari is funny as well. Joan Rivers is a classic.

I only question this because his standup isn't that great.

yeah, I think he has the right to be an all time 10
I think longevity, influence on others should count big


its a crime Martin and Newhart didnt get more mentions


NEWHART

His 1960 comedy album, The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart, was the first comedy album to make #1 on the Billboard charts. Button Down Mind received the 1961 Grammy Award for Album of the Year.
and the two albums held the Billboard number one and number two spots simultaneously.

THATS AMAZEBALLS

I won't give a top 10 because I think that is stretching the list bigger than it needs to be for me. I'll just give the ones who I think of as being my top tier. Reserve the right to forget someone though.

Dave Chapelle
George Carlin
Bo Burnham
Mitch Hedberg

Bill Burr probably belongs on this list and maybe Louis CK, but I just haven't watched enough of their material to put them there.

They all did stand up, and were damn good. Seinfeld is just not funny.

Pryor and Carlin. Game changers. Did they come up with it all by themselves no - but they made that brand of comedy great.
