Any suggestions on good comedians to check out? I've always loved standup, but haven't been too hooked in now that I don't have tv.
I think a ducks opinion of you is based entirely on whether you have bread or not

this guy had stage fright and still pursued a carreer in comedy, thats fucking admirable
>>68202540
He relied on the Herron to help him out with that I think. Brilliant comic tho
>>68202540
Yeah the way he was shaking on his Letterman appearance was out of control. He still basically nailed all the jokes though, even if one in the middle was a tad stuttered, he still delivered it well and cheekily poked fun at his nerves.

I saw twenty seconds of pablo francisco years and years ago, and had to immediately change the channel.
for years afterward, I'd see mario cantone and think "I could swear that guy was named pablo-something"

here's a bonus I'll name 3
1. Russell Brand
2. Amy Schumer
3. Lisa Lampanelli
/tv/'s comedian choices suck and this has been more evident with the CK / Burr nuthugging on this board.
Here, watch some of Amy Schumer's act and see what a 10/10 comedian looks and sounds like.
Acquire some taste instead of laughing to CK jokes baka

They can make someone chuckle, but nobody will ever die laughing listening to them.
>>68205239
I've watched the mans standup and had quite a few laughs. One of which was at his. But really though, America needs someone like him that is blatantly anti-PC, and for someone like him to come out of an island full of PC liberal pussies, I found it refreshing and entertaining.
>>68205277
Please never put hacks like Gervais in the same league as Fry ever again. Go and watch Frys solo work or especially go watch Hugh and Laurie. I got quite a few gutbusting laughs off that and I am American.
Stewart Lee
Voted /tv/s favorite comedian in a recent poll.
Does anyone else feel like standup comedy is not generally any good
>>68205394
Learn to form a sentence, buddy
>>68205461
I assure you I chose the words comprising and cadence of my sentence with the utmost care
>>68205394
Do you even drink?
>>68204528
lol Kevin Brennan
No.
>>68205394
Yes. 95% of standup is cheap topical bullshit.
>>68205394
I definitely listen to WAY more podcasts than I do to standup
these standups need to learn how to structure their shows, otherwise they just start talking shop about hecklers or whether Amy is a joke thief or who should be more successful than they are
compare Legion Of Skanks to High Society Radio. superficially, they're shockingly similar (fat guy, hispanic, libertarian) but LoS is three comedians while HSR has a radio background. HSR stomps LoS in terms of how consistently funny it is, because HSR is better at show prep and keeping things moving.
