Your top 3 comedians


Who are your favorite comedians?

Mine:

Jonathan Winters
Bill Hicks
Richard Jeni

*I consider Richard Pryor to be more than a comedian, and playing on a whole other level than anyone else. A list of one, shall we say.

I assume, based upon your list, that you are asking for standup comedians, rather than groups of comedians.

In no particular order:

Bill Cosby (mostly for his standup work, although some of his TV work was good too.)

Bob Newhart (Again, mostly for his standup work, but again, his TV work was good too.)

Jerry Seinfeld (This time mostly for this TV work, but his standup was good too!)

If you were allowing comedy groups, my list would have:
The Marx Brothers
Monty Python Flying Circussssss
The Three Stooges

My three cents worth
