Eddie Izzard is my current favorite comic...though you do need to know a bit of history to get some of his jokes.

I have heard so many people say how they love EI. I've tried and just can't get into him. Lots of people love him though. It's probably just me.

Maybe it's because in spite of all the work we do, it's the child in us we really value.

Man this is tough. I've tried and I just can't narrow it down to just one or two.

So here goes

Lenny Bruce Must start with him because he threw open the door for a lot of comedians.

George Carlin Picked up where Lenny left off.

Bill Cosby Maybe the most eloquent of all commedians

Red Buttons Just always liked his delivery

Redd Foxx Again Delivery

Richard Pryor yet another door buster

Steve Martin Insanity at its finest

Robin Williams See Steve Martin.

I could continue but I think it's best if I stop now.

I have to say Stephen Lynch, cause he's a friend of mine and he'll kill me if I don't. :lol: :lol:

Top of the list is George Carlin. Also Steven Wright, Bill Cosby, Chris Neff, and classic Eddie Murphy.

This is why I shouldn't answer questions early in the morning. I forgot my all time favorite.





Wish I could find clips of some of his classics: "The Driving Instructor", "Security Guard at the Empire State Building", "Sir Walter Raleigh". Bob Newhart is awesome!!!!
