Comedian's who aren't funny

Artie Lange is not funny.

The push that CC gave mencia after Chapelle quit was entirely unwarranted. His whole thing is "look how edgy my comedy is..."

Look how much edgy I am, look how much I hate hispanics. His show was pretty big during the whole immigration debate and all the illegal immigration stuff.

Carlos Mencia is funny, his delivery is great. Sure, he may steal other peoples' jokes, but he tells them better IMO.

Calling you on this. Ridiculous. The Bill Cosby "hi mom" football joke is the most famous one he stole. Go find Cosby doing it. Then take back what you said.

I will agree that Mencia is pretty funny, all things considered. He's had a few rough years, but I do own a couple of his albums and they're not bad at all.

I think he's got a unique style, and he has a good, funny cadence, and a talented, interesting voice. He's hammy a lot of the times with his delivery, not sophisticated and subtle, but he's really far from horrible. I'm not sure where the gimmicky part comes in, and calling him a hack is pretty easy when he's stolen a lot of stuff.

I really don't get his popularity, he's a clumsy motherfucker. The fact that he steals material pretty much invalidates everything he does imo but having two comedians do the same joke gives a perfect basis for comparison.

LOL. You say this right after talking about some black comedians taking advantage of their race in their comedy. Mencia is fucking horrible. A gimmicky hack.

Sure, Mencia makes Mexican jokes and can get away with it because of who he is, but that isn't his whole thing and his delivery on jokes is so funny.
 
Lisa Lampanelli is horrible.

George Lopez is pretty bad with his constant pandering to Latino audiences.

John(Jim ?) Belushi......not the dead one ....the one who you wish was dead ........*rimshot*

Conan O Brian is pretty meh too.

Dana Carvey.

I'll tell u about a comedian who is funny his name is Brody Stevens
 
Why is it that Dane Cook is the Nickleback of comedy? I mean he isn't a great comic but I don't understand how he tops almost everyone's list of shitty comics. Does anyone even remember any of his jokes?

i think people are starting to turn on Carolla because he has revealed himself not to be a liberal. folks dont take kindly to that kinda thing. you cant be funny if you lean to the right.

What's funny is that he's moderate as fuck.
Socially liberal, fiscally conservative.

Good for him.

Either way, it has nothing to do with how funny he is, and he's hilarious as fuck. Adam could rant about guitar strings and make it better than most people's entire routine.
 
Lewis Black
Jimmy Fallon
Zach Galifanakis(sp?)

There's several more I can't think of right now.

I think people laugh at shitty comedians live because they go to a venue with a (it's time to laugh) mindset. Unless they're flat out terrible they nobody will flop completely. This is where I think Zach fits in.

Also a bunch of idiots from those Comedy Cental stand-up shows.
