Pick a Comedian (108)
I love Tommy Tiernan. I know some find him crude but he's the funniest live commedian I've ever seen. It helps to understand the Irish culture, though

Dara O'Briain is a fantastic stand-up but I still think Dave Allen was the best at spinning a story.

Hard to say,....I have seen Tiernan and Martin live. Steve is very funny, and Tommy's rants are absolutely hilarious! Emery and Hill,....classic comedians,....Hope,...dry, but legendary! (And I loved him with Bing!)
So, so many I could list,....but,...individually great were these people, but together,....I pee'd my pants laughing way too many times,....and not a swear word ever uttered - the cast of the Carol Burnett Show. Especially Harvey and Tim,.....not if Harvey would crack up,....but when,...

Love Tommy too. He got a bit carried away there for a bit but people should remember they're just trying to be funny and entertain.

I forgot Groucho, a true original. He did a TV show in the 50s,
called "You bet your Life", he refused to use a script. Funny stuff.

@Moose Have to agree with you on the Carol Burnett show. They were all hilarious but Tim was my favourite! I don't think they ever knew what he was going to do next! My favourite sketches are these two. First one gets really good at 4:55 and the second one at 4:45 for those that don't want to watch the whole thing!

Remember him well, excellent at the storied joke.

Yeah and i love observational humour about life and situations in life everyone can identify. How he turned it around to make it funny and quirky. Had a great relaxed way about him, it was almost like you were in his living room and him telling a story to friends or in a pub etc

jt3jo: Tommy Cooper never had to say a word to make people laugh. All he had to do was show his face. Classic.
Exactly, you hit the nail on the head. 'Not like 'at, jus' like 'at!'
His expressions made him. Benny Hill's expressions helped him too.

Spike Milligan made me laugh ,I think he was so clever,intelligent with his wit....he could get manic sometimes and this is when his gift of true genius would emerge.,,in my opinion he was the best in his field.
