Indigo Blue Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Angelah Johnson and Jeanne Robertson are two of my all time favorite comedians. Jeanne Robertson has passed, sadly. Two months after her Dh, whom she affectionately called Left Brain. She was Miss North Carolina in 1963 and played college basketball. She was the tallest pageant winner in NC history. She was known as a humorist rather than a comedian, but I think she is one of the funniest, regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterPan Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 I've been trying to learn to appreciate comedy. Leanne Morgan is quite funny, though she seems to repeat material. Kathleen Madigan has a Hunting Bigfoot show on amazon that you don't have to be drunk to enjoy. She does comedy for the troops etc. https://www.amazon.com/Kathleen-Madigan-Hunting-Bigfoot-Trailer/dp/B0B6VQ9R5H 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just saw his show last weekend. That was our first ever show. I bought us tickets at Christmas. I've concluded that it is more enjoyable at home without the obnoxious laughter of others. We used to enjoy Gaffigan but the latest special of his we thought he came across as grumpy and mean. I like that Nate isn't crude and often makes fun of himself instead of other people. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home'scool Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 John Pinette, hands down. Sadly he passed away a few years ago. We were good friends in college. It was like hanging around with Robin Williams ... he could turn anything into a joke. We would eat together in the cafeteria and I would beg him not to make jokes while we were eating because I would laugh so much and end up with an upset stomach! He couldn't help it though, he was just naturally funny, He was also a "clean" comic. Not a lot of swearing, most of the jokes about himself, he always said he didn't want to insult anyone .Except for the Amish, he said he could make fun of the Amish and they would never know! 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i do t mind a little off color suggestion, I do not like vulgar and crude and constant F word. I saw a Dana Carvey special on TV probably 20 years ago about presidents. My then husband was asleep on the sofa and I was laughing so hard I nearly fell to the floor while trying to be quiet. I wish I could find it but if memory serves it was pretty full of bad language. Anyone remember Sinbad? He did a bit on his mom buying him school clothes and bringing them home for him. He did not show proper appreciation and her response ‘Mr. Don’t have a job can’t buy nothing for himself!’ is still a catch phrase I use.

When he did the skit about the mother losing it at the mall. We still quote "one less bell to answer, one less egg to fry!" And I love when he said that we did not have play clothes. We just wore the clothes we grew out of haha. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alysee Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Tom Papa & Nate Bergatze. I don't mind swear words if it's like part of a story, not like F Bombs every other word as filler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 a few I haven’t seen mentioned: Jo Choi Sara Millikan Iliza Shlesinger Matt Rife I watch comedy at work all the time so I probably have about 15 I watch. These are a few off the top of my head that haven’t been listed that I have watched their comedy show more than once. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annandatje Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 (edited) I’m showing my age here. George Carlin, David Cross (he did standup prior to acting) and Bill Hicks who died in his early 30s from pancreatic cancer. Not familiar with all the current comics, but like Marc Maron, Dave Chapelle, Neil Brennan, John Mulaney and Kathleen Madigan. Also like Nate Bargatze.

If anyone was just kissing on a movie, he would ask “are you watching a ‘film’?” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
