Default Who are your top 3 favorite comedians?

Simple question. Who are your top 3 comedians that make you laugh the most. I'll go first.

1. Chris Rock
2. Russell Peters
3. Dave Chappelle

I'm sure people will have comedians like George Carlin, Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, Mitch Hedberg, etc on their lists but these are my top 3.

Some youtube clips from my top 3 (lots of it is NSFW due to swearing etc)

1. Chris Rock:

On love and relationships (NSFW)

On C grade students (NSFW)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrF6m...eature=related

On abortion (NSFW)

2. Russell Peters

On beating your kids (NSFW)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nn5jlrxcpkI

On East Indian, Chinese, Italian and British (NSFW)

3. Dave Chapelle

Oilfan you stole my thread idea! Honestly was thinking about making a Top 3 comedians thread last night...weird.

1. David Cross. Shut up you f-ing baby is ridiculously funny, "A Naked Woman equals Porn"

2. Daniel Tosh

3. Jerry Seinfeld's stuff is still really good. I always loved his stuff on Pharmaceuticals and Pharmicists..."i'm gonna take some pills from this big bottle and put 'em in a little bottle!"

Comics I cannot stand: that Mencia guy, Ray Romano

This is definitely one of my favourite stand up jokes..

Robin Williams - Golf

There was a post on this board a while ago, it had a Dave Chappelle skit where he talks about White guys always remembering how much they drank the night before, no matter how drunk they were? Anyone have that link? That was very funny.

1. George Carlin - has anyone else been around for so many years and remained as funny?

2. John Candy - from SCTV to his silly movies, I don't think anyone makes me laugh more.

3. Robin Williams - his talent is beyond comedy as well, but there isn't a person alive who can improv like him.

For anyone that likes Russell Peters he is going to be hosting the Juno's this year and they are in Calgary. In the article where I read it, it also mentioned that he has a show in development with FOX.

Jeremy Hotz is fantastic.
Matt Kirshen from last seasons "last comic standing" (the little british guy) was brilliant in my opinion.
Russell Peters will round out my top 3.
