Bill Hicks, natch. Taken too soon, he never really had the chance to break out. I can only imagine the vitriol that would have come out of him if he lived through the second Bush administration.

George Carlin is pretty good too, before he turned into a grumpy old man anyways.

Yeah, back in the 70s and 80s, Carlin was hilarious! He had me falling on the floor. But something happened to him later.

Bill Cosby is my all-time favourite comedian. Unlike George Carlin or Bill Hicks, Bill could be riotously funny without using profanity or blue humour. And one of his movies I'll probably never get to see, Leonard Part Six, is a masterpiece of screwball comedy. I've seen clips of it here and there. Bill Cosby is an award-winning lifetime achiever of comedy. He's pretty old now but still alive and a social activist to boot. A few years back someone killed his son Ennis. :(

I cannot imagine a list of comedians that does not include Robin Williams. Williams is in a class by himself and the others are very, very far behind.

I remember a long time ago when John Cleese was voted the funniest man on earth and he was interviewed by Time, I think. Cleese said he was very surprised by the award and related a story about how Robin Williams had joined the Monty Python regulars in their hotel suite in London. Cleese explained that before too long, Williams had them all captivated... if not a bit stunned.

2nd to Williams... must be Jonathan Winters. They are, by far, the funniest people on the planet, at this point in time... in my opinion. Again, other comedians are light years away from either of these two. I am sure, if you interviewed each of the people on the list, that they too would agree with my sentiments.

I guess why I love Williams is because my sense of humor is very similar. In real life, I am sort of like a "Robin Williams Lite" and have been told on numerous occasions that I should seriously consider doing stand-up comedy.

You really are opinionated , not everyone thinks Robin Williams is funny.
