100 Greatest Stand-Ups 2010 (Next Friday)

[Melina Ms. Paparazzi ♡]

The public voted for their favourite comedians, so calling anyone better than anyone else based on their ranking is meaningless.

 

[ÇöÁ¤ ¹]

cant agree more
there wasnt any of the other 99 that i wouldnt happily watch accept maybe that emo guy

 

[hdoraisamy]

..He is mildly funny, not in the same league as other American black comedians like Dave Chappelle though.

 

[Island Princess]

Frankie is very funny. Deserves to be higher than Howard anyway.

 

[Stranger In Florida™]

Love Bill Bailey. Saw him at Glastonbury at about 1am in the pouring rain, one of the most fun stand up shows I've ever been to.

 

[Actual]

why is peter kay so high he hasn't done stand up since 2003

 

[morph]

I agree with this. Both are sublime.

 

[S.i.m.p.l.y.C.o.r.i™]

I do love Steve Coogan

 

[RKO (NMC)]

I must have asked this before in a related thread.
Dave Allen's shows why don't we see any of his stuff repeated, he doesn't get the props he deserves IMO.

 

[Samuel L]

I didn't realise he was dead Not missed by me, probably why I didn't take note. Can't stand Emo Philips either.

 

[▲▼ßððĝiз▼▲]

Top 20 men I'd like to punch

 

[lookadistraction]

Me too, it was hilarious.

 

[Zack M]

I like Jenny Eclair sometimes

 

[Jordan K]

About 76 I think, sadly...

My God this material is old- give it up Kay... That fine rain that goes straight through you :yawn:

 

[chloe w]

Well, he did near enough INVENT stand up as we know it......

There was a previous thread about this and I think it did mention that there was a panel of experts who helped define the final list, along with the suggestions from the general public.

If you are just going to ask people coming out of HMV then people will probably just name the last decent comedian who they saw on TV.

 

[buckaboy16]

It's in the first post of this thread. He was only at 90 to start with anyway.

 

[DontTreadOnMe Vol. 2]

Oh dear- Jimmy Carr has come on at only number 13...

My wife hates him but I think he is one of the funniest men alive

"Slow Children"

 

[FishAddict !]

Omid Djalili- genius comedian.

Can't wait to see The Infidel

 

[MeltandFlow]

Was he not in the re-done list? I remember the real criticism the 'talking heads' gave him in the old programme.
