What Kind of Funny Stuff/Comedians/Comedies do you Like?

Post by browneyedgirl » Sun Aug 15, 2004 5:08 am

All of us are kids at Heart&a sense of humor in reasonable proportions keeps us sane! What Funny stuff do you like to liven your spirit&make you laugh-maybe even forget your troubles a little while?

Well, I like Rodney"I get no Respect"Dangerfield
The 3 Stooges(Curley=:lol:)
South Park
Beavis&Butthead
Ren&Stimpy
Bugs Bunny&the Gang
Jetsons&Flintstones

Chris Rock
King of Queens
Good Times
Drew Carey Show
The 70's Show

There are so many Funny movies I cannot name them all!The Money Pit&There's Something about Mary are good,IMO. Airplane 1&2 are funny&Its a mad, mad,mad,mad World is Hilarious, so is its remake, Rat Race.

I like Slapstick&Ironic humor best--I hate Dark humor that Seriously degrades&hurts people. Enough of that insanity goes on in the real world to be humorous.

Simpsons, the best cartoon ever, period.
South Park
Ren & Stimpy, too bad they don't show it on tv in finland anymore.

There indeed are many funny movies, my favorite actors are (at least) Jim Carrey (Liar Liar, Bruce Almighty, Dumb & Dumber...) and Leslie Nielsen (The Naked Gun 1, 2 1/2, 33 1/3).

And if you don't know him yet, please check out Pablo Francisco. He's a damn good impressionist/stand-up comedian, Pablo Francisco - Standup, (it is quite large).

I like King of the Hill&the Simpsons, too! And Jim Carrey is something else:lol: there is a rumor afloat he is to play MOE in an upcoming Three Stooges remake Movie.
Jeff Foxworthy&Jerry Clower are two great, very funny Redneck comedians!

British comedy is good, too--very classy. Are You Being Served? is a good British comedy I like.

YES!*Thumbs Up* HBO has some GREAT George Carlin presentations! :lol:

And, that Howard Stern is funny in a biting, sarcastic way! :lol:

Tim Allen is funny, too&Roseanne Barr had a funny Redneck-oriented show that was actually true to life about lower class life!

- I'm a big fan of Mel Brooks' work (such as History Of The World, Spaceballs, Robin Hood - Men In Tights etc.)

More favorites:
- Monty Python (best British comedy ever)
- Blackadder 1 to 3 (didn't like 4 that much)
- M*A*S*H*
- The Young Ones

Favorite comedy actors:
- Jim Carrey
- John Candy
and although he's more diverse than just playing comedy, Jack Nicholson rules them all.

I liked the one where Jerry met up with an old girlfriend&forgot her name. She gave him a hint: her name rhymed with a woman's body part! :lol: ;) Jerry FINALLY figgered it out at the end! :lol:

That show was also embarrasing because my son was watching it, too :oops: and I had to kind of lie to him about the answer! :D He was too young then for a detailed discussion about female anatomy&the facts of life! :lol:

BTW, Her name was Deloris! :oops: :lol:
