    I don't know if there is a comedian I find patently unfunny. I mean, I (ironically) hated "Everybody loves Raymond," but absolutely loved "Men of a Certain Age" with Ray Romano. I will not watch "Jack and Jill," but will watch "Billy Madison" any time it is on. Even Kathy Griffin might get a chuckle out of me when she's palling around with Anderson Cooper.

    That said, I will watch most anything that Louis C.K. does because I think he is extremely funny. I even garnered a little respect for Dane Cook because he appeared on Louis' show and addressed the joke-stealing accusation that people had made toward him.

    I agree to all of this but tell me something funny Ricky Gervais did that was good?

    I guess all comedians have highs and lows, but the ones I don't like are those that use yelling, vulgarity, violence or insulting others to get a laugh. I have a difficult time sitting through movies starring Adam Sandler or Vince Vaughn for this reason. As for Chris Rock, whether he's trying to be funny or not, his voice makes my ears bleed. Same for Gilbert Gottfried. *shudders thinking about it*. I am not familiar with Dane Cook, I've only heard his name, but after reading this thread, I don't want to be. haha

    I agree with you on Robin Williams. A little goes a long way. I hated "Mork and Mindy". Totally stupid show.

    I don't know about Dane Cook stealing jokes. If he does, he only steals bad ones. I watched him once and didn't even crack a smile. Just bad.

  • I can't believe nobody has said Gilbert Godfried... Every time I hear him it is like nails on a chalkboard, and I have never ever heard him say something funny.

    Maybe reading through the posts before casting baseless accusations would serve you better.

    Oh... and Leno!
  • Steve Harvey... too much credit
  • Will Farrell
    Jim Carrey

    I don't even know if I spelled their names right. It's all such stupid, slapstick, bathroom humor...and way over-exaggerated.

    WOW! I'm going to take a wild guess that some of you have issues with humor.

    Dane cook... ugh...

    I also am not a huge fan of Seth McFarland. I like American Dad and that's it...

    I am, however, a huge fan of Will Ferrell and Jim Carrey, whom a lot of posters on this topic don't care for... Interesting! :laugh:

    I think I'm one of the few that didn't find Bridesmaids the hilarious comedy that everyone else did.
