Larry Reeb is hilarious.

Eddie Murphy "Delirious", laugh so hard I cry every time I watch it. Close second is the late Bill Hicks. If he doesn't die, nobody cares who Dennis Leary is.

Larry Reeb is hilarious.

I was about to post that Larry Reeb aka "Uncle Lar" was my favorite. Have seen him live 3 or 4 times now, dude is funny as hell and pretty perverted/vulgar at times.

Here's an old clip that is a good "tame" example of his show

Daniel Tosh. I get to see him live in Denver January 16th.

Louis C.K.
Dave Attell

 

[BryceC]

Gaffigan or Tosh.

I probably haven't laughed at a stand-up special as hard as I laughed at Aziz Ansari's "Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening" special. Freaking hilarious.

Also, Rob Riggle had a pretty dang good "Comedy Central Presents..." 30 minute special as well recently.

 

[CyDude16]

Nick Swardson
Dane Cook (Yes I like him, some of his stuff is a bit overrated, but overall I find him really funny)
Daniel Tosh
Jim Gaffigan
Steve Byrne

When I've been extremely intoxicated, comedy central had Bob Saget on, and we found him hilarious, it may have been more of how awkward he is on stage and how drunk we were though.

 

[jdoggivjc]

Gabriel Iglesias, Dr. Denis Leary, Bill Cosby. And I don't know how much stand-up Amy Sedaris does, but every time she's on some talk show she just cracks my **** up.

 

[jay moe]

Lewis Black, Eddie Murphy, Bill Cosby, too name a few.

 

[ISUKyro]

Gabriel Iglesias
Jo Koy

Old School: Chris Rock

 

[heitclone]

George Carlin is hands down my fave. Bill Burr is good, I also like Pablo Fransico. I like Tosh's stand up but his show got old about 2 episodes in.

 

[CarolinaCy]

Steve Byrne.

 

[SImpsonCy]

Dave Attell
Nick Swardson

Nick's First Comedy Central show is the funniest 30 minutes I have ever seen on there.

 

[CycloneJoe]

Carlos Mencia (just kidding I hate that d-bag)

Lewis Black
Chris Rock
Ron White

 

[CycloneJoe]

Rodney Dangerfield and Sam Kinison were 2 greats!
