    Default The Comedy Thread

    Talk about, post, do whatever with your favorite comedy. Movie scenes, comedians, sketch comedy. Post it here!

    I am wholly and unabashedly in love with Louis CK.
    Louis CK - Different Sets of Values

    And also Maria Bamford. I'm not crazy about female comedians (call me a sexist, okay, sure), but Maria Bamford is great. Her crazy neurosis is a bit uncomfortable, but her impressions are hilarious. Especially the ones of her mother.

    I love the loud, brassy, comediennes of the '40s, and especially Cass Daley:

    Jimmy Carr never fails to make me feel better about my life. 8 out of 10 cats (which he hosts) is top notch.

    8 out of 10 Cats is indeed awesome.

    I tend to go with Mock the Week and QI. You can't beat a bit of classic Monty Python as well.

    One of my best mates was actually on Russell Howard's Good News as well as one of the stand-ups at the end.

    Louis C.K. is by far my favourite comedian. I love his stand-up, his show, his style, his personality, everything about the guy is great.

    I'm also a big fan of Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, and Bill Hicks.

    Louis CK is just the best. This clip, in particular, is so... everything. Mass culture got it right with him.

    Two of my favourite panel shows right there.

    My favourite stand-up performance is Ed Byrne's Different Class. Almost painfully funny and apt at times, especially if you've ever had thoughts of getting married.

    Patton Oswalt and Lewis Black are a couple of my favorite stand ups, along with Bill Hicks and George Carlin of course.

    Though there is a very special place in my heart for Frankie Boyle.

    ...Yeah, I'd say this isn't suited for work, but really this isn't suited for decent, well adjusted human beings.

    Edit: And yeah, Freaking love SMBC Theater, I wish they were still making those sketches.

    Ever since I discovered Louis CK, no other stand-up comedian seems to measure up.

    George Carlin, Jim Jefferies, Jeff Dunham and Eddie Izzard are some of the best comics I've watched. Granted, I only really watched the Achmed sketches when it comes to Jeff Dunham.

    Patton Oswalt is one of my favorites. That man can make me laugh like no other.

    If you have never contemplated murder, you've never been in love...
    If you don't keep the tools and plans for burying the body in your car, you've never been in love
    If haven't practiced your alibi in a mirror, you've never been in love,
    and the only keeping you from killing this mother-smurfer, was an episode of CSI
    Oh crap, they will catch my sorry ass, we better make up...
