Top Comics on Comedy Central

[xbxDaniel]

They do this every now and then and the results are usually the same everytime. Dane Cook got first again. I'm not saying he's bad, it's just that I wish somebody like Louis C.K. got some better respect.

[ScruU2wice]

yeah I hated that dane cook special because he kept wishing he was Chris Farley or Jim Carrey...


I didn't watch the last hour and half but the Jim Gaffigan special was awesome..

[Schimid]

I saw Hedberg and the ventriloquist guy (forget his name), so I was happy.

Dane apparently has the best-selling comedy album of all time, now. It beat Steve Martin's "Wild and Crazy Guys" a while ago, right?

well what else distinguishes him from other non-worst-comedians then :/ is there like a movie he's in, or say a specific joke he does i would have heard? what is the reason he has got so much popularity with so little talent? what, as they say, is his "deal"?

[xbxDaniel]

He's very aggressive in his act. He forces his jokes upon the audience. They're usually vulgar too, but some of his stuff his funny. He has no subtelty though.

There was this one ventriloquist guy I thought was hilarious when I was younger. He had a puppet named Peanut and a Jalapeno Pepper (On A Stick).

His name is Jeff Dunham (had to look it up).

[Emu]

He was on last night.

My girlfriend complains about them because you can kind of see his mouth moving, but you're supposed to be looking at the fucking puppet when he's doing its voice, not him.

[Immortal Goat]

I like the ventriliquist. Usually, ventriliquism puts you in comedy hell, but he is able to do it well.

Gaffigan was hilarious, as always, and then there was that wierd guy that did the musical number "This is the place where my jokes come from". I liked him, too. I was tired, though, and maybe that added to the comedy.

In case you can't tell from my lack of well structured sentences, but I'm still tired. I hate being sick

[Schimid]

Demitri Martin is the "this is where my jokes come from" guy.

Ziggy, yeah, that's the guy I was talking about. Walter is my favorite puppet though.

Did The Amazing Johnathan place at all? I used to love that guy.

[Mockery]

Dane Cook had a great first comedy CD.

His second album I listened to once and haven't listened to it again because it was that weak.

Then he was on Saturday Night Live recently and it was so fucking unfunny I was stunned... even by SNL's low standards in recent years.

My favorite was the jokes he with the sheets of paper...

"Double hawk"

he's coming to chicago sometime soon and I'm gonna ask him what his secret is because he doesn't look like he's 30 at all

[Ninjavenom]

I still think Dane is funny. He has a few bombs now and then, but so does everyone. I think he is starting to get a bit of an ego though ;_;

Also, i thought Jim's special was just annoying. I loved his half-hour special, but in this one he kept doing his "i'm saying what some people are thinking" voice and it worked out to like a 3/1 voice/joke ratio.

Also, Louis CK is indeed one funny bastard.

[ScruU2wice]

plus most of Jim's bit was about food...

The wierd voice thing is like the staple of his bit though, if you don't like it you won't think any of it's funny

[Ninjavenom]

Yeah, i thought it was annoying. In his other special he used it sparingly, and i thought it was funny as hell when he did, but it's overkill now.

"You don't use Mayonnaise? Why? Is it okay if i use mayonnaise?"

[GADZOOKS]

Dane Cook is pure garbage, I was on a train once and I overheard kids bragging about how they had his most recent CD on their IPOD.

Plus he steals jokes, including Louis CK.

I still say Zach Galifianakis and Demetri Martin have the best comedy central specials out there.

annnnd Stella

[ScruU2wice]

Stella was great

but every 16 year old is gay for Dane Cook, I don't think anyone else really had a chance unless chapelle was in the running.

It's all just a popularity contest..

Dane Cook was in that new movie waiting. He was on the insomniac special with Dave Attell (Duh), Greg Giraldo and some other comic.

He did a pretty funny bit about the price is right. And he kicked the stool which made me lol.

he has neck tattoos cuz he is EXTREAME

[Chojin]

I have a rip of his Harmful If Swallowed DVD and I think it's excellent :< Especially his older bit about restroom stalls where he performs a flying dragon kick across the stage.

I'm gonna go make an animated gif of that.

[Chojin]

HIYA

For some reason this is 209k large ;< I tried my best ;<

FINISH HIM

[MLE]

I WISH THAT WAS AVATAR SIZE

[Ninjavenom]

Are you sure he's a joke thief, and not the same kind of guy who thought of the same kind of joke? Just because someone does the same joke as someone else does not mean they stole the joke.

[GADZOOKS]

I'm sorry I have to rephrase something.

When I said "Dane Cook was a joke stealer, including Louis CK" I mean to say Dane Cook stole joke from other comedians including Louis CK.

But I guess he just "thought up" 3 bits that ridiculously similar to jokes found on a Louis CK album a few years ago. Sure he was clever enough to tweak them to make them his own, but to take it all from the same CD.

But joke stealing isn't that big of a comedy crime. His biggest crime was his terrible apperance on Saturday Night Live.
