When people do that 'who would you invite (alive or dead) to a dinner party?' thing I always imagine the absolute chaos if you had Billy, Spike Milligan and Robin Williams all riffing off each other.
Oh, invitees to a dinner party? Thatβs very different. Bob Mortimer would be top of that list. Stephen Fry would also be there, but not necessarily for laughs.

The Big Yin 100%, fascinating man, so genuinely interested in people and culture, will be a sad day when he passes.
I've always had a soft spot for the lovely Peter Kay, his harmless gentle humour that everyone can relate to, I've cried laughing to his shows and even his bbc comedy series "car share" was just hilarious.
I used to like Ricky Gervais,repulsed by him now. Preferred him more in The Office than in stand up. His Netflix show Humanity (I think it was called) pissed me right off,turned it off about 15mins in!
Eddie's "Raw" is timeless too, love it. Every woman watching loves to reuse the " what have you done for me lately??" line !π€£ -

There's funnier stuff happening on on podcasts. I'm amazed this thread has gone on this long with out @tim mentioning his love for Nick Mullen. I think Shane Gillis will get a similar following in a year or so
Yeah, I've never really been much into standup, as I've always found it very much a routine and performance, hackneyed and without spontaneous wit. That's a wanky way of saying that I've just always found it tame and contrived.
As a person whose sense of humour developed through golden age internet trolling, extended context dependent forum jokes, and mean spirited humour, podcasts have been the best development. They can take the cheeky, trangressive trolling of social media (almost completely banned now), and develop characters and stories over long periods of time.
That's a pretty faggy way of saying that you should listen to Cum Town, and maybe Tim Dillon, and cackle to old school Sam Hyde self-defence scenarios.

Raw is great, unless you're comparing it with Delirious, then it's only very good.

I wouldn't say I'm repulsed by Gervais, though I think the jokes are starting to wear thin. His whole schtick ('I don't care if you're offended, I'll say what I want about fat people/disabled/gays etc') was really bold a decade ago when 'Animals' and 'Politics' came out, but now it's just a bit stale.
I'll throw out two blokes I enjoy watching - Norm McDonald and John Mulaney. Both witty, cerebral types who rely more on well-written jokes than performance or obscenity.
Norm's appearances on Conan and Letterman through the years have been incredible. I regularly go down Youtube rabbit holes of his old stuff.

I like John Mulaney - agree it's good to have guys who don't fall back on performance or obscenity.
Someone earlier mentioned that they didn't really like the Netflix shows but I think lots of them are hilarious and I watch comics who I'd never come across otherwise - I watched some blonde chick on Netflix and she was a crack up ... might be too pro-female for this place though.

I agree with the above statement but in saying that Raw and Delirious are about as good as it gets. I'll probably die if I ever see anything as consistently hilarious as them.

Christina Patzinsky or Iliza Sclezinger? Patzinsky is hilarious, so is her podcast with her husband I mentioned her earlier in the thread.
Amy Schumer was funny once Trumps presidency turned her and Sarah Silverman into virtue signalling harpies though .

Sarah Silvermans tits look absolutely exceptional these days. Talk about improving with age.

Really? She was nude in some film years back and from what I saw she had no place in the hawt thread.

A google search would also reveal that she has a smoking body . I thought her comedy was ok but not great .
