Who are your favourite comedians and Y?

Post by attofishpi »

My favourite US comedian is Bill Burr - just watching his Netflix "Live at Red Rox"
- reason, so bloody rational - putting things that are ridiculous about current time of society into perspective.

Same goes for Aussie comedian Jim Jeffries - barely known in Oz...big in US - although he's gone quiet a bit.

Bill Bailey. Ironic puzzlement. Use of music.

Stewart Lee. Intellect, and the abuse of it.

New medical research shows that men and women have different food cravings, men preferring meat and women preferring sweets. Scientists trace this back to cave man days, when men had to go out and hunt for food, while women sat on their fat asses eating chocolates.

Some of Charlie Chaplin’s physical comedy, because in the early days of electronic entertainment, simple acts of personal interaction were more of an art form.

He is an acquired taste.
He started in the 80 and has grown in several ways.

Watching Lord of the Rings - Rings of Power...

..and just realised, that "Sadoc Burrows" is Lenny Henry!!

I paused the vid...because I knew the character reminded me of Lenny, considering to myself, he would be a great actor in stuff - and how good is Amazon Prime, that it shows you who the actor is - LENNY HENRY - a fantastic comedian.
