Favourite Comedian?

[Artoo]

Who is your favourite comedian?

For me (at the moment anyway), it seems to be Sir Rowan Atkinson. I've been watching a lot of his earlier work (Not the nine 'o clock news, Mr Bean, and his live tour), and I can't get over how amazingly slapstick his body language is.
Plus the fact that he is incredibly witty...

ROWAN ATKINSON IS A COMIC GOD!!
Other comics tremble just at the mention of his name.
You certainly picked my all time favorite.

I love his bible reading "Nazarath the Amazing" and his Devil routine from his stand up show.

Blackadder is my all time favorite show.

I enjoy best his sarcasm.

And the Mr. Bean christmas special..when he was playing with the nativity scene. The first time I saw that I was laughing so hard I was crying. Even my mother a devout Roman Catholic was laughing so hard she could not be offended.

Rowan Atkinson....A Comic God.

His "invisible man" from the stand up show did it for me.
Oh, and I just found this;

It's Rowan Atkinson and John Cleese in a hilarious skit about an interviewer and interviewee...

I did not know a grand enough stage in the universe existed.

Truly the comic gods gave us their full bounty that day.

I always loved....

The late, great Richard Jeni. To me he was a genius. When I went to Vegas, I made it a point to go see him live....such a shame...here is just a small sample.

Rowan Atkinson....

is above great also. Love Blackadder...especially the fourth series...

 

[Scinsor]

Well everyone knows about Dane Cook, but I also like Nick Swardson a lot. My favorite by far is Denis Leary though, I love listening to him rant. Wish he'd do some more stand up though, he hasn't done any since Lock n' Load back in 97.

 

[tickle_feety]

Dylan Moran, Bill Bailey, Jack Dee and Bill Hicks to name but a few, but I love watching stand up so Im sure more will come to mind...

[BrightEyes1082]

I think Sabrina Matthews is the funniest person alive. I also really love Steve Byrne, Dane Cook, and Wanda Sykes. And there's this fat Italian guy who's hilarious, but I can't think of his name. He gets really angry though.

Bill Hicks
George Carlin
Sam Kinison
Richard Pryor
