Norm McDonald and his dry stuff is great . I think I posted some of his awhile back .
My favourite is the G rated Jim Gaffigan he makes anything funny . He is a simple comedian genius . If you can make going to McDonalds funny you got me .
Chris Rock 15 years ago yes . Lost that edge now .
Jerry Seinfeld good but really liked the show better maybe because of Larry David .
Saw Bill Burr a couple years ago when my neighbour convinced us to tag along and see him. Very funny dude. Then discovered Jim Jeffries soon afterwards. Great finds both of them.
Grew up on Dave Broadfoot and Rich Little (Canadian vomics) but they weren't intellectual comics, mostly just rude laughs and semi-stupid stuff.

Do like I do. Don’t watch him. In fact, if you guy’ s had never talked about him years ago, I would not know who he is.
How did he get to be an expert on EVERYTHING anyway ? What has he ever done ?.. Another nothing with a big mouth. It’s people exactly like him that keep my TV turned off.
Thats the problem with Maher he talks like he is a right winger libertarian then turns around and wants to be seen as left wing so they keep him on HBO .
He tries to play both sides as not politically correct but then goes all politically correct to appease some of his audience .
Clever at times then falls into his own trap he set up .
Liked that every once in awhile he actually has one guy from the other side getting hit from three or four sides and a audience that gets loud for some point that was screamed or shouted at the poor guy or girl brave enough to take the counter point .
Nobody likes a one sided unfair debate no matter what side your on it hurts any validation you were trying to effect .
