    Michael MacIntyre, watching him live is the only time I have actually cried with laughter

    Getting the kids in the car is a great bit .

    The dentist bit is absolutely classic as well.

    Yeah, seen McIntyre and Gervais live, both fantastic. Jarred Christmas and Tim Vine I saw at a 4 kiwis night out in Chiswick, Vine is an absolute one liner king.

    Daniel Simonsen is one I'd like to see more of:

    Going to see Rhod Gilbert in April, looking forward to that - one of my fave clips:

    Sean Lock is top for me. Also Katherine Ryan, although to be fair I’m not fussed if there’s no sound.

    Would. Mrs went t see her last year, said she crapped on in a girl power style too much and wasn't all that funny in the long run. Mrs has a terrible sense of humour though.

    I learnt to fly with Leigh Hart's brother, he was a pretty funny fucker too. Serious piss taker.

    Not as good as breakfast with All Blacks I know, but it's all I've got.

    Ron White is great, I love his bit about his divorce lawyer. Or when he got busted for having marijuana
    Reporter ,-"how much marijuana did you have?
    Ron White-not enough.

    Leigh Hart - not funny
    Michael McIntyre - I can see how my parents would find it funny. Me... not so much. He's a young incarnation of Bruce Forsyth. Just... dad-humour.
    Ron White - I got about 5 minutes into that video before that audience did my head in.
    Katherine Ryan - not as hot as some people seem to think... horse-face. And fully realising/admitting that the first female mentioned is being rated on fuckability rather than humour-talent. On that humour-talent... from what I've seen (solely on UK quiz shows)- reasonable.
    Reginald D Hunter - decent enough.
    Rhod Gilbert - funny, mind doesn't work the way a human mind should. His shit on Taskmasters... just, WTF?
    Daniel Simonsen - decent.
    Sean Lock - has grown on me... just some random shit at times
    Lee Mack - not my flavour of humour, but he's fucking quick
    David Mitchell - amusing, but can't imagine him doing an entire stand-up
    Jimmy Carr - amusing (Edit: yeah: @taniwharugby punchable AF)
    Frankie Boyle - amusing
    Edit:
    James Acaster - the more I see of this guy, the funnier he seems... although obviously an engineered "personality"
    Ricky Gervais - I quite liked his early stuff, but after he got smug as a fucking smug thing... just a little too.. smug?

    @No-Quarter yeah some of McIntyres stuff is brilliant, Humanity was SUPERB, I am not a big fan of Gervais, but that was solid gold!

    I also watched one of Jimmy Carrs shows on Netflix, some very funny stuff, but man he has a punchable face and annoying AF laugh.

    Bill Burr is brilliant. Pretty much any angry black comedian from the 70s and 80s was hilarious, including Red Fox:

    I always found those Live at the Apollo comedians good value.

    Pre-meltdown Dave Chappelle was next level.

    I just googled her.

    I think I'd rather have an intimate night with Ursula Carlson than Hannah Gadsby....

    Im just saying if I had to choose.

    I'm making the point I find her EVEN MORE physically repulsive than UC. Which is quite an achievement .

    Chappelles show Rick James skit is one of THE funniest things you'll ever see. Helped hugely by The late Rick himself and Eddies late older brother.
