Norm MacDonald

The moth joke, dirty johnny, country of germany, 9/11 compilation, ManGrate, guest appearance with courtney thorne-smith on conan.

Louis CK, the only man in the world funny enough to un-cancel himself

Bill Burr

Taylor Tomlinson

James Acaster

I'll give you two, one living, one passed.

Randy Feltface is great with crowd work.

Mitch Hedberg was a genius with delivery, and even though I've seen most of his recorded work multiple times, I still laugh out loud.

• George Carlin
• Billy Connolly
• Carl Barron

George Carlin

Scrolled too far without seeing Weird Al listed. He may not do stand-up but he's absolutely a comedian, and he's been making me laugh consistently for 30 years now.

James Acaster is the correct answer in here - he is hilariously funny and very progressive

• James Acaster
• Mitch Hedberg
• Stephen Wright

Patton Oswalt. I love that nerdy little hobbit man when he really gets on a rant.

Bill Hicks

Mike Birbiglia

Nate Bargatze

Bill Burr, Eddie Izzard, Diane Morgan, James Acaster, Jimmy O Yang

German: Carolin Kebekus, Kurt Krömer, Teddy Teclebrhan, Loriot (Rest in peace)

Demetri Martin! One liners galore and fun visual "musical" comedy.

Fern Brady I find always makes me laugh, it's like she's enjoying herself and just bringing everyone else along for the ride. Even in interviews I just end up really enjoying myself.

Jim Gaffigan

The first time I saw Beyond the Pale I thought I was gonna die laughing.

Rowan Atkinson. I'm unable to watch Mr Bean or Blackadder with a straight face. Everything he does is comedy gold.

Also the one and only Robin Williams, may he rest in peace. Watched his stand up program and spilled my drink multiple times

Rishi Sunak and Keir Starma, to name but two.

Conan O'Brien. He's just effortlessly funny, especially when he's just riffing with Sona and Matt on "Conan O'Brien needs a friend".

Joe Wilkinson doesn't even have to open his mouth and I start laughing

Tig Notaro

Louis CK

Mitch Hedberg (RIP)

Tim Minchin (musician but still a comedian )

Joe Pera

Todd Barry

Matteo Lane

Brian Regan.

Kyle Kinane

Don Rickles. Some of his stuff is very dated, but he skewers everyone... with love. 🙄

Maria Bamford.

Billy Connolly

I liked Tom Segura before he started to make fun of poor and homeless people.

Mike Birbiglia

Tom Segura, although his latest special is my least favourite one.

Definitely Hannibal buress is on my list

Sarah Millican

Dmitri Martin has an uncanny ability to make me laugh out loud like basically no one else can.

Not stand up. David Sedaris, his life essays, not the short stories.

The Ship Shape, amiright?

Jim Jefferies' childhood friend brothel story will always crack me up.
