Rodney Dangerfield. You know, the guy who always complains, "I don't get no respect!" He is really the only one that I think I have always liked, no matter what I have seen him do. Woody Allen is another, I guess, although his INTERIORS movie was a flop as far as I was concerned. Allen Font is another that I love. (Candid Camera). That is all I can think of for now. Maybe some others will come to mind later.

I'll have to check for names. But Ellen Degeneres (sp?) favorite female comedian.

Going to check out the ones you named and see if they are some of my favs... great thread. Spread the laughter!! We all need laughter so bad right now.

I like lots but I cannot remember their names either! I don't think I have a all time fav though bc they all have something different that they bring to their audiences.

Spread the laughter!! We all need laughter so bad right now.
