You listen to too much O&A.

I like all of the above but would put Lewis Black and Louis C.K. at the top of the list.

I have the DVD of his live show. It was disappointing because quite a few of his gags are a rip off from Mock the Week.

Chris Rock....


I used to listen to a lot of Jamie Foxx growing up.

I forgot her name, but late night on Showtime they had a series called Full Frontal Comedy. Most of their guests were pretty good, but there was this one black chick who claimed to have a PhD in sucking dick.
She made me lol.

Louis CK!

And Jim Gaffigan is good but he comes up with about one new joke every year and recycles the rest. Of course most of his comedy is about himself being lazy...so I guess that makes sense

 

[Chiefcrowe]

Daniel Tosh

his show is non stop hilarity!!!

 

[theprodigalrebel]

Carlin would be my favorite (and also the one I'm best familiar with). Also like a lot of Chappelle and Chris Rock's routines but can't honestly say I've seen the majority of their work.

I checked out Louis CK's HBO specials 'Shameless' and 'Chewed Up' after reading this thread. Dude is hilarious and the right kind of inappropriate. Need to check out some of the other recommendations.

Usually funny but his last comedy central special was god-awful.
