and who is the best?
i used to do listen to MItch Hedberg
Behold, the worst stand-up comedian
Best: Tom Segura
Worst: nannette or whatever that dyke comedian is
Best currently is Patton Oswalt.
Worst is Dane Cook (if he's still doing stand-up)
jay, mencia and ellen dont deserve to be on here desu
Nanette doesn't really qualify since she's not really doing comedy.
Jimmy Fallon's gotta be among the worst
>jay
Horrendous stand-up comedian. Go listen to his old shit. He's funny when's he's just ball busting though.
>Mencia
How is a thief not worse than comedians who are original and not funny?
>Ellen
Name one funny bit she's ever told.
>Best: Tom Segura
lol wut.
He’s my favorite working today. Not best of all time
What's your pick, user?
>Dane Cook
Honestly completely forgot that he even existed
That British bitch who goes on about shoes is pinnacle cringe
Who's that comedian who's always laughing about her abortions?
all women
I still do, but i used to, too.
It's funny to me that he has a joke about never riding on GW Bush for easy joke material, but now he writes essays on Trump every week. Plus the whole poisoning his wife thing...
Not American, can I have the names of these? Or at least some of the best ones?
Dice is an ironic boomer meme that isnt nearly as funny as his contemporaries make him out to be.
Dave Attell? You know.. the guy people like Segura tried to copy for years before finding his own voice.
What Dane does/did isn't really stand-up. That's partly why he was so successful, and definitely why so many legit stand-ups hated him.
joey diaz
If you think anyone there is the worst standup comedian you’ve clearly never been to a comedy club.
Insomniac is pure unfiltered late night kino
My man
How is it not stand up?
>Dice is an ironic boomer meme that isnt nearly as funny as his contemporaries make him out to be.
I agree but it would be foolish to say he's not an all time great just by sheer popularity and influence. No one nowadays talks about Don Rickles but they helped pave the way for the following generations of comedians. Also Dice is one of the funniest people on the planet offstage
the gorilla
I uh, I liked the commercials Comedy Central would play at that hour.
The real worst stand-up comedians are literal whos that aren't even worth mentioning. You're missing the point, user.
Robin
Norm is the funniest but not the best standup. Best standup would be Chappelle, followed by Louis CK, then Stanhope. The rest are just competing for third place.
I doubt you have seen much of Dane's material and I doubt you have seen much other comedy.
I'd say your dick, but everyone always laughs when it stands up, so it's arguably the best comedy act ever.
Norm MacDonald is pure garbage, his humor is beyond stupid
Dice is great and has classic standups
Big Chungus' show actually made me mad.
If the criteria is people who legitimately qualify as stand-ups by virtue of definition, David cross. He is the laziest, most pandering clapter hunting fag of them all. There's plenty of nu-comics that fit that same bill, but he's been around long enough to know better. He sold out for a shot at being old guard king-fag in nu world, and it didn't even work out.
Imagine being this much of a pleb.
>Best standup would be Chappelle, followed by Louis CK
I feel like you haven't seen everyone on the list if these are your top 2
Bill Burr
Ron White
He’ll be working nothing but clubs all his life because hes a mid tier comic who can’t form a punchline and his most loyal fans are salty comedy snobs
How can someone be this much of a contrarian?
2020 I am forgotten.
I haven't seen Nick Cannon or whomever the nigger is, but the rest of row 3 is actually decent.
>a comedian is only good based on if they can sellout arenas
I get it, you don't like comedy. Being a smug faggot is not going to make your life any happier.
Ellens standup isn't bad, neither is Trevor Noahs. They're probably above several of the people in that one: Schaub is the absolute worst.
I'd rather watch Gadsbys.
I'm sure I've seen yakovs or lenos standups, but I don't really remember them.
Most people don't like Norm you faggot. That makes you the contrarian
Word
He sells out everywhere he goes outside of the country. It's a matter of time before he comes back.
Carlin
>Most people don't like Norm you faggot.
Nice statistics you got there, retard.
Being a contrarian bitch ain’t doing you any favors kid
It's Steve martin-esq stage cooning. It's all presence/energy, not material for materials sake.
It's always been very controversial to suggest Steve doesn't qualify as a stand-up, but think about it: we don't call impressionists stand-ups, and we don't call improvisors stand-ups. The format of the venue isn't what defines the act.
I'll say it since no one else has the balls. Mitch Hedberg is just a less funny Steven Wright.
Where's Carrot Top?
I like Bobcat Goldthwait.
I don't remember his stand up,which I watched decades ago while stoned off my ass.
But his movies are great, and he doesn't belong on a list with those other pieces of shit.
Anyway.
Good thread.
I really appreciate the Stephen Wright and Mitch Hedberg style, and its the hardest to imitate because nobody can write that stuff unless they're very clever. There's a lot of top level comedians that are observational, there's fewer that pull off great one-liners
I'm familiar with everyone on that list save maybe two, and that's my rating. Norm is my favorite of all of them but not so much for his standup. Patrice was based as fuck but more because of his appearances on O&A and his own show. As far as the actual craft of standup comedy, I think most comics would agree Chappelle is the most naturally gifted. No one denies that Louie is a brilliant standup. Stanhope is criminally underrated but seems like the logical third choice to me. Why Joey Diaz is even on that chart at all is a fucking mystery to me, dude is aggressively unfunny.
Eat my ass, faggot
Woman detected
I love shakes the clown
>Being a contrarian bitch ain’t doing you any favors kid
You don't know how to use the word "contrarian", dumbass. A contrarian is someone who goes against the popular opinion. Literally no one thinks Dave Attell is anything less than an all time great comic. You even have people like Burr, Rogan, Lange, Stanhope, and a ton of the best living comedians who cite Attell as one of the best ever. You're the real contrarian here. Cry about it.
possible the worst opinion i've seen on this site
Seriously why are women such shitty comics bros? Even the best ones are just barely palatable. It’s always the most generic observational shit
As soon as they shut that camera off,he gonna fuck that little dog!
Norm called some basedfag a dirty Arab on tv and got away with it
Ellen was probably the greatest female stand up of all time. Obviously the material is dated but check out any of her specials from the late 80s or early 90s.
*lies*
Maria Bamford had a pretty funny special back in the day. Can't think of many others though
Hmm. I see what you're saying, though it partially comes off as gatekeeping. How do you draw the line between "material for material" sake and laughs driven by delivery/charisma, and why doesn't the latter qualify as stand-up? Was Robin Williams stand up? Eddie Murphy? Gallagher?
I saw Pete Davidson's special on Neflix. I went into it thinking that he was an asshole; but it wound up being pretty good; in a nihilist way.
The worst standup I've seen recently was an ali wong special
>wahhh my favorite comic will only ever work at clubs and never be good enough to surpass that, segura and Rogan are performing Maddison square garden? Fucking normies reeeeee
Get over yourself retard
>Ellen was probably the greatest female stand up of all time
What the fuck are you on? Have you ever heard of Joan Rivers or Janeane Garofalo?
>Where's the bloody jokes?
Pryor
Excellent troll list
>I have no argument so I'll just cry "club comic" until it's legitimate
Amy Schumer sold out Madison Square Garden so I guess she's funnier than most comics.
Robin Williams by far.
the worst comic is definitely a woman.
Amy Schumer was so bad she forced Netflix to change their rating system. That's unrivaled.
Dice clay and Willams are both hilariousl, talented people, but they are Dane Cook level terrible at standup.
