    After a night of watching comedy central I just had to vent.

    People I think are not funny at all:

    Denis Leary - he's just angry all the time, half of the time he ends up going no where with his jokes, or he just hits a complete dead spot of something I can't believe he found funny in the first place
    Nick Di Paolo - although he has made me chuckle a time or two, the vast majority of his jokes are just typical boring plays on race and gender. very uncreative.
    Wanda Sykes - most annoying voice since fran drescher. only not nearly as funny, and fran drescher ain't funny. loved it when bill cosby ripped her.
    George Lopez - a hispanic guy who makes fun of hispanic people. zzzzz. at least he isn't as much of a dink as Di Paolo.
    Colin Quinn - another hit or miss guy. he single handedly ruined weekend update.. and his monologues are like pulling teeth. he does better with physical comedy.


    feel free to add on.

    WORD.


    I also don't think that Wanda Sykes stand-up is very funny. She's made me laugh on her tv show and other stuff like that, but never with her stand up material.

    Personally, I think Lopez is hilarious.. maybe you had to go through some of the stuff he talks about to laugh at it ;)

    Ray Romano - just not funny
    Robin Williams - better actor than comedian
    Bill Maher - it has nothing to do with his political leanings. He's simply not funny
    Gallagher - kind of a no-brainer for this list

    Margaret Cho's lesbian comedy is the definition of not funny.

    Is Kathy Griffin considered a comedian or just someone to universally loathe?

    The only thing I find funny about Wanda Sykes and Colin Quinn is that if they mated, their child would be Ralphie from Last Comic Standing since he's black, white, fat and unfunny.

    David Cross - <-wtf is that? I downloaded some of his comedy on MP3 so I could listen to it on my way home, and NOW I feel like i have lost a good CD-R I could have used for another purpose...

    I can't stand that ho. Her and Wanda Sykes need to buy a bus ticket and wait in front of the tires.

    However, I did like Dennis Leary's 'No cure for Cancer' act. I first heard it on cd. Never saw the stand up.

    I liked Gallagher when I was 12. His act is stale now.

    George Carlin has slipped a little, but his act at Carnegie was hilarious.

    Cat: "F-n Meow!!!"

    I don't get Lopez. And his mothrer on the show needs to buy the bus ticket and...

    Dennis Miller - Unbearable. I don't know if I'm listening to a news commentary or a comedian.

    Robin Williams - I swear he goes off into his own world and doesn't know anyone else is listening sometimes. Must be the drugs. lol.

    Felicia Michaels - Playboy bunny/comedienne. I don't get why people think this woman is funny. Delivery is predictable and a lot of her material seems to just be recycled crap. That plus she sounds like some cartoon character on helium.

    Pretty much any SNL refugee.

    PS - I actually like some of Margaret Cho's stuff. She's average at best.

    I only laughed when he said: "You know what I call September 11... I was in it... now everyone talks about it... I call it: 'The Day Football Died'... I bet there was a guy somewhere down south that said: 'Come on, NFL, now... I got all these snacks...'..." and the condom stuff in the middle of New York bit. That was it. Why do YOU think HE's funny? The rest of the stuff is DRY and it seemed in those MP3s I illegally downloaded that it was UN-written or UN-rehearsed or UN-napkinized (a-la Seinfeld) material...

    ... NOW, comedians who get their material from Bulletin Boards, now that's GOOD STUFF... I'd give those Comedians an A or a B... or BOTH (AB) ;)
