Just a fun question, to see who your favorite comedian might be, past or current?
I would say mine is Flip Wilson, especially when he did *Geraldine*
Here is one of his funny ones he did with Joe Namath http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-355kMZxUN4
They just don't make *em* like this anymore!
Pablo Francisco is pretty funny in my view.
Don Rickles is one of my favorites too - he can make me laugh so hard that I’m gasping for air!
And Eddie Murphy, before he started making bad movies, and playing talking donkeys, was hilarious on “Delirious” still cracks me up after all these years.
Rodney was great.
I don’t know that I have one favorite but there’s plenty whom I’ve liked. To name a few-
John Belushi, Sam Kinison, Ernie Kovacs, Jack Benny, Jimmy Durante
Thank you for the entertainment. : )
Who is your or has been your really awful grammar school teacher?
...And this time I mean it!
Carol Burnett , Johnny Carson and Red Skleton
the ONLY 3 people alive that could get my father to laugh.
Jonathan Winters, especially when he ad libs.
Not sure I’m still in grammar school...
Grady Nutt.
Sam Kinison, George Carlin and Mel Brooks.
George Carlin was the best. I didn’t always like what he had to say. But in terms of creativity and adaptability and currency and bankability, there was none better.
Dick Van Dyke, MTM, Morey, & Rose Marie have always made me laugh. Same with the Seinfeld crew.
Jonathon Winters.....
Emo Phillips
(And the classics like Danny Kaye)
Gallagher
There’s so many....Rodney Dangerfield.....Eddie Murphy...Sam Kinison.....
But I guess if I had to say a comedian that always makes me laugh and puts me in a good mood that would be Rowan Atkinson....
Mr. Bean in Church.
