Jeselnik would be 6 probably.

BurtReynolds · Post by **BurtReynolds** » Mon September 02, 2019 11:57 pm

yeah I'll put Carlin at 5. Segura and Burr are good, but not quite top tier.

Loved his show, but Chappelle's stand-up does nothing for me.

He has great delivery and style, but isn't actually all that funny.

BurtReynolds · Post by **BurtReynolds** » Tue September 03, 2019 12:05 am

I think his stand-up is much better than the show.

He needs Neal Brennan just like Seinfeld needs Larry David.

Just watched Chappelle’s stand up. Thought it was pretty funny. We’ll see on Burr’s special next week. I love his podcast but didn’t find his last special to be great.

Eddie Murphy. Stand-up. Tour next year.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Debating on whether I'm gonna stay up to watch the new Burr special.

I won’t argue with any of the comments about Chappelle on this page. To each your own.

Norm MacDonald is way up there when ranking comedians.

Actually I disagree with this.

most people probably would, but I think he's an absolute natural at stand up.

Well yes he is fantastic but that show was off the damn charts.

Burr's new special is about 100 times better than Chappelle's new one.

We are very different people.

Guess they couldn't find anyone funny to do the Alec Baldwin roast

That new Amazing Johnathan doc is annoying AF.

Saw Bob Marley in Worcester, tonight. Never really heard of him, but he had people crying. Physicality was 7/10 and he left very little breathing room. Always amazes me how these people can take over a room. Go see live comedy.

I love that guy and his awesome Maine accent. He's funny.
