Another Andy Kaufmann fan.
Nothing to do with the oft-repeated idea that he might have been an aspie? :P

Believe it or not, I've never seen a single thing Andy Kaufmann did, but I'd like to.

Rodney Dangerfield, Johnny Carson, Bob Hope and Leisnie Nelson.

I also enjoy Cheech & Chong. :D

I always loved the family friendly antics of Tim Allen in Home Improvement.

My favorite's always been Jim Carrey. I just love his style of physical comedy.

Dave Allen, may he rest in peace, also John Belushi and Richard Pryor. I thought Graham Chapman was the funniest Python.

Still Kicking: Whoopie Goldberg, George Carlin, Robin Williams, Everyone from the Daily Show. I miss Corky and the Juice Pigs from Mad TV.

I love Tom Lehrer and Victor Borge. Maybe I just have a thing for guys who are funny *and* play the piano... Or maybe I just have old-ladyish tastes. :roll:

Although he died in a most ironic manner, one of my all time favorites is Sam Kinison.

Good question!

Chris Morris
Bill Bailey
Dylan Moran
All of Monty Python
All of the Goon Show
The Marx Brothers
Rowan Atkinson (pre-Mr. Bean)

With the exception of The Marx Brothers I'm not hugely keen on American comedy, I don't really find humour in what Bill Hicks says and I just find Chris Rock annoying. :?

The late Phil Hartman was my favorite on SNL.

I don't know who my favorite standup is...I saw Lewis Black in NYC, I always have liked him.

I laugh at almost all of Norm McDonald's deadpan stuff.

Alot of the other people mentioned I like also.
