No love for Sinbad?
Can do it clean, hard to do without all of the shock and awe.
Still rank dangerfield the funniest though.

Eddie Murphy
Katt Williams
Richard Pryor
Mitch Hedberg
Fluffy Iglesias whatever his first name was
Jerky Boys
Roy D Mercer
I'm sure I'm missing a few, but out of those guys... I gotta be honest and say Katt Williams probably elicited the most actual laughs from me... Pryor is still probably a fav... and honorable mention to Jonah Hill in his various roles.

Maybe not the funniest, but hands down a top 5 storyteller or all time.

Paul Lynde was funny in multiple ways. LINK

Don Knots was pretty funny, Don Adams too, Harvey Korman, Smothers Brothers never get their propers either, funny, and a bit ahead of their time with satire/political undertones

LOUIS C.K.
not seeing him enough in this thread. Some of the people being listed on here without mentioning Louis is an insult to comedy.
"Your phone does't suck, you're life sucks around the phone."
"I read something in the paper that really confused me the other day. It said that 80 percent of the people in New York are minorities…Shouldn’t you not call them minorities when they get to be 80 percent of the population? That’s a very white attitude, don’t you think? I mean, you could take a white guy to Africa and he’d be like, “Look at all the minorities around here! I’m the only majority.”

I miss the old style variety shows that I grew up watching. Shows like Perry Commo, Andy Williams, Ed Sullivan, Dean Martin, Red Skelton, etc. had great line-ups and a nice variety of entertainers every week.
I’m with you here.
