God I hate Jimmy Fallon. Never once laughed at anything he did or said. So I would add him but for me he was never good in the first place.

Being a comedian isn't good for your health. Consider:

John Belushi (dead at age 33)
Richard Pryor (65, but a rough life)
Sam Kinison (38)
Andy Kaufman (35)
Bernie Mac (50)
Chris Farley (33)
Freddie Prinze (22)
Greg Giraldo (44)
Lennie Bruce (40)
John Ritter (54)

And last but not least Fatty Arbuckle (46)

Or, in many cases, it's drugs.

His stand up comedy is so lame, he comes across like a wannabe Mencia.

Lisa Lampanelli is pretty funny for about 2 minutes sometimes, but I find myself running away pretty soon after. A lot of her goes a long way.

She'd probably be funny for cameos in movies as some cunt waitress or crazy relative if she isn't doing that already.

I miss Ben Stein's roles, but he seems to be focusing more on his legal career these days.

Blessed are the murderous.

Stupid chick show with the obligatory faggola on the panel. She's sharp and quick and witty, but a half hour with her really sucks.

Unless she's horned up and has my crank in her mouth, she is pretty hot.

Eddie Murphy. Dude hasn't been funny since like 1987. His non-comedian brother is now funnier than he is.

I thought of Eddie Murphy as soon as I saw this thread.

Other names from the dustbin of comedy:

Chevy Chase
Andrew "Dice" Clay
Bill Cosby
Martin Lawrence
Martin Short
Mike Myers
Woody Allen
Billy Crystal

Strange to think of how funny this guy was at one time because he sure isn't now.

Hard to believe anyone gives him respect. The guy is despicable to me.


I’ll throw in a vote for Tom Green and Pauly Shore.

Give Rodney Dangerfield props; he was funny until the day he died. Other comics should learn from his example.

I loved Dangerfield...

"I was standing around the pet store, a woman points at me, says "I may be interested in this one, how big do they grow?"..I don't get no respect!"

I heard Rodney on Stern not long before he died and Stern ws asking him about the "afterlife" and if Rodney was religious after being raised Jewish. Rodney was like "naw, there's nothing there, when you're dead you're dead". He sounded kind of bummed about the fact, and it was kind of depressing to hear one of the funniest guys who ever lived sound like such a sober realist.

Loved his humor and his dont-give-a-fuck but good natured attitude.

Old school and classy as they come.
