100 Greatest Stand-up Comedians - (part 10)

[thecooldoctor]

So they put Dara O' Brien at 42 and they don't even say anything about him?

[pearlycheung]

accidentally pressed the spam flag, sorry. was laughing so hard.......

[TobeUK]

Bernard Manning was a grumpy cunt who thought he was the funniest comedian who ever lived and didnt like anything new. oh yeah, and he was a racist homophobe. rest in agony you sillysilly twat- does he make it into the list? hope not....

[TobeUK]

never seen Rob Nemwna'ns later polictic stuff...looks good

[Cody111079]

0:40 Hugh Grant, very young there :)

[Phoenix1664]

Dara O briain is top 10 as far as im concerned! The problem is that here, they showed the least funniest joke he's ever fucking done!

[vikramrulesrox]

im pretty sure its not ranked its just the 100 greatest

[Xestantial]

ATTENTION ALL!!!!: This is not ranked down from 100, there all the best comedians in the world there, the top 100 in the world!!!...So stop bitching about who is better!...there all equally AMAZING! <3 <3 <3

[Sboy200]

not many people in the UK know the Robin Williams is a stand up --- and I need to see him :D

[moshpotpaul]

Vegas, O'briain and Williams should all be in top 20 at WORST.

[DavidM4725]

who the fuck is robert newman?

[Sboy200]

@DavidM4725 don't know but he look awesome :D

[atrixa1991]

God, I hate Bernard Manning.

[marvelboy66]

Jackie mason is a bit up his own arse...

[donegallad91]

What's the name of the show Johnny Vegas is in at 7:33 anyone?

[luwu2008]

Wow, Robin Williams is 44? Thought he would be top 20 if not top 10. He is awesome!

[Lyney84bcfc]

Newman is a stupid lefty twat.

[midgeamoo]

Hehe, Jackie Mason sound so Jewish he kinda sounds Scottish xD

[williamwilson666]

"Same as yours but on fire...."

So true. However, drop dead Manning. Oh you did- strong work.

[MarieRuth1]

Robin Williams 44?

Dara O' Brien 42 ?

What the heck is going on!!

Those two are top 20 !!!

[adamrowecomedy]

@MarieRuth1 nah. They're both good, but not top 20 of all time, i don't think

[MarieRuth1]

@adamrowecomedy Robin Williams ... I get where your coming from... however I think Dara has gotten so much better.. and is consistant! =)

[adamrowecomedy]

@MarieRuth1 They're both great, but top 20 you're talking about the likes of Bill Hicks, Richard Pryor, Dylan Moran (My favourite), Billy Connolly and even newer acts like Jason Manford will eventually end up there, but Dara is so much of an acquired taste, he's not worthy of such a high place on a mainstream list

[MarieRuth1]

@adamrowecomedy I've just realized, that we both have completly diffrent tastes in comedy, because I don't like any of the comedians you have listed, its surprising really how you find Dara an aquired taste whereas I would be thinking that about Billy Connolly...

[buckass]

dara o'brian is fucking shit

[meursault48]

Rob Newman at 49? He is simply not funny, spouts endless, left-wing, greenwash claptrap - I'm guessing - to the converted. What a waste of time. 'Move to China' indeed. Please.

[TheSleathable]

Williams is one of the best. who voted for this?

[CotardDelusion]

Robin Williams should be in the top 20 at least! He is a comical mastermind!

[leavetheherbitalone]

Over 7,000 people have viewed this clip and I'm surprised not one person has pointed out Hugh Grant at :40 in the bottom right corner laughing at Jackie Mason. Tell me I'm wrong.

[Lyney84bcfc]

@leavetheherbitalone and julian clary near the top right its one of those audience with programmes where most of the audience are famous

[QueenDeaconite]

Wow, Steve Hughes is a dick. Not, quite as much of a dick as Bernard Manning but that's probably a bit harsh to say now.

[QueenDeaconite]

@QueenDeaconite Sean, not Steve, Steve Hughes is amazing.

[williamwilson666]

Hughes, if you're reading this you are a hypocritical,lower-middle class, pot-bellied prick and Newman is a God in comparison.

[RoseBeautyDuffy]

Robin Williams should be in the top 10 along with Dara O' Briain.

[hamlit00]

Why the hell is Dara O'briain not in the top 10?

[bladelinger]

What performance of Dara Obriain is this?

[Gwitfu90]

What comedian is more Jewish than Jackie Mason?

[MCAMVP]

robin williams is underrated here

[UssenterprizeDv2]

@MCAMVP He's underrated everywhere I don't think anyone's seen the entire taping of his act at the Met, or his more recent HBO special.

[pacskye]

@MCAMVP Yes. Robin should be in the top ten at least.

[okolao]

is that bob zmuda that dude who used to hang out with kaufman?

[cmrxs]

@okolao Yeah. He was in Man on the Moon too. As the floor manager on SNL I think...

[truepoisson]

I don't understand how Rob Newman is 'one of the few remaining comedians to combine political activism with comedy'. LOADS of comedians use politics in their acts, Ricky Gervais did a whole show about it.

Or am I just not understanding the term?

[Dakatt1]

@truepoisson I think they mean its' what dominates their material. Gervais's show was about politics but he does other things aswell

[pamlawrence1]

@truepoisson I think that's exactly what you're doing.

[truepoisson]

@pamlawrence1 probs lol

[LOLWUT58]

@truepoisson

Doing a show on politics and political activism arent the same though are they?

[truepoisson]

@LOLWUT58 well i guess not, but i think doing shows about one or the other is going to pretty much be the same because you're going to talk about the same things x

[DontGoQuietly]

A bit. Activism is like protest and fighting for a cause, as opposed to most political comedy which is just talking about politics.

[AndrewJimScott]

thank you i love the rob newman part the most
