Best Stand-up Comedian

HiMucker · September 02, 2011, 12:56:14 PM

I have seen these boys live and would rate them in this order:

Kevin Bridges Brilliant
Daragh O Brien or whatever the spelling is Brilliant
John Bishop Very good
Jim Owen Good
Jimmy Carr massive dissapointment

Eddie Murphy Raw on Film4 now. Quality.

I watched that ask Rhod Gilbert last night and my opinion of him is now well down. I should have bowed to the boards superior knowledge. On the plus side my tickets for Reginald Hunter, Dave Gorman and Sarah Millican arrived.

If all it takes to be funny is to say "motherfucker" five times in every sentence, then yes - quality.

You seriously have issues if you bought tickets for Sarah Millican. As funny as a boot in the balls.

Sarah Millican is very funny Tony.

Rhod Gilbert just seems to shout a lot. Saw Reginald Hunter on Rte2 one night, was very funny.

Mickey Flanagan and Sarah Milican seem to be flavour of the month on the TV comedy show circuit.
