Subject: Least Favorite Comedian(s)

Written By: Red Ant on 06/28/06 at 3:02 pm

Well, we've listed our favorites and why, now it's time to go for the ones that don't quite do it for us.

My picks would have to be....

Gilbert Godfried (sp?) - his voice just grates on my ears

Jerry Seinfeld - Apologies to JS and "Seinfeld" fans, but most of the time he just doesn't do it for me.

Eddie Murphy - I love his movies, but having recently watched a 6 hour block of 'best of SNL - Eddie Murphy' and his stand-up "Raw", I can say laughs were few and far between.

Chris Rock - I used to be a big fan, but the last 2 shows of his I've seen (especially the one that was filmed in DC and aired on HBO) were way way off of his previous shows. I still have hope for him.

Jerry Seinfeld tops my list.  I've never found him funny

Brett Butler - Her deep voice gets under my skin

Peter Kay (British comedian...)

Rotund and completely unfunny...a bit like a re-incarnation of Charlie Drake!

He seems like a bit of a weirdo.  He was in the video for the song "Sleep" by Texas.  Love the song, but his performance in the video made me want to hang myself ;D

These top my Least Favorite list:

-Martin Lawrence (Not only does he look like a rat-boy, his vulgarity is offensive. He is the only person officially banned from ever hosting "SNL" again!)

-Jerry Seinfeld

-Dave Chappelle

-Sister Morphine

-Andrew Dice Clay

BCCT has its moments, but "Larry: Health Inspector" is possibly one of the worst and not funny comedy movies ever made. If you saw the trailers for this film then stop there; they are the only funny bits in the entire movie.

Thank you, Red Ant.
You don't know just how emphatically you have reinforced my point about that boor's humor.
You get karma for that.

Dom Irrera, a ripoff of Buddy Hackett (who also wasn't that funny) if I've ever seen one. Fortunately, nobody's seen too much of him since the 90s.

Do you mean Lisa Lampanelli? I've only seen her on CC roasts of other comedians; she is brutal, which has a certain appeal to me.

Well, I do like BCCT, and especially Larry, which is why his movie was such a letdown. That movie sucked so much it almost put Oreck out of business.

Dane Cook -  not funny


I saw a few episodes of "Tourgasm", which were okay, but nothing special. I saw a good portion of one of his comedy skits the other night, also on HBO. I have to agree with your assessment of him, though he did make me laugh once or twice.

I never found Robin Williams' schtick funny. He's more of a Ritalin addled retard. He's better in sappy dramas with an uplifting message.

I don't think Stephen Colbert or Jon Stewart are particularly funny.

Dave Chappelle is overrated. He should change his last name to Chapeaux and sell hats.

None of the blue collar comedians, especially Jeff Foxworthy, who owes his routine to Mad Magazine, are funny to me.

And, I've always, ALWAYS hated Tim Allen. Tell me what is so hysterical about his macho man grunt routine that a dumbass sitcom needs to be based on his "act."?  May he Santa Clause his remaining days on this earth.

David Spade used to be funny, but he left a bitter taste in my mouth throwing his talent away on that Just Shoot Me embarrassment.

Bill Murray used to be subtly funny, and now his humor is so dry and subtle it can no longer be detected.
