Worst comedians?

Which comedians do you think are the least funny?

I'm going to post some clips, but for the love of God, don't watch them.

Imran Yusuf (UK)

Howie Mandel (Canada)

Al Porter

The most un-funniest person to ever grace the air waves or television screens. He's not going away either, :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Ricky Gervais. He's just not funny, he's annoying.
John Bishop. That thick scouse accent just hurts my ears.

Penny Tration · 06-12-2015 12:12AM

Lee Evans.

The only thing funny about that man is his inability to find a working anti-perspirant

FanadMan · 06-12-2015 12:24AM

The previous 3 but Al Porter worst of all!

GarH · 06-12-2015 12:31AM

Jimmy Carr and Michael McIntyre

I dont know how these two became "famous"

I saw him Al Porter perform live in a pub in Dublin a couple of years back.

My friend couldn't believe that the audience found him as a funny as they acted.

He thought the reason people were laughing was a way of overcompensating for the years that anti-gay sentiment was legally enshrined in Ireland (sex between gay men being illegal until 1993, for example).

As in, whoever laughed the hardest at this very camp comedian was the least homophobic!

Yeah, The PC brigade has taken over. He must be funny, lest anyone who doesn't think so must be a homophobe.... It seems these days that people are tripping over themselves around gay people out of fear of being accused being homophobic.

Lee Evans. Dane Cook.

Mostly Dane Cook.

Not really suited to this forum. To AH it is!

PS Al Porter is seriously crap. Won't even attach the label comedian to him!

IvaBigWun · 07-12-2015 02:42AM

Why not ask who are the best ones?

This is a golden age for stand up comedy ffs.

XR3i · 07-12-2015 02:43AM

some cuunt-face from dublin,

NachoBusiness · 07-12-2015 02:45AM

Eddie Izzard.

No idea how anyone can find him funny.

Stewart Lee another.

All subjective though I suppose.

Andre 3000 · 07-12-2015 02:45AM

Larry David

The Backwards Man · 07-12-2015 02:47AM

I'm fairly sure Billy Connolly rode me Ma before she met me Da. So yeah, he's the worst.

What are you, some kind of schmohawk?

LD is hilarious. A bit shouty, but very funny and clever all the same.

07-12-2015 02:52AM

Jason Byrne.
With his stupid auld Dublin woman accent all the time.
How they like him in England is beyond me.
Just not funny.

I did like that anonymous show though

tippspur · 07-12-2015 02:52AM

I used to think that Bernard O Shea was the most unfunny comedian in Ireland,then along came Al Porter.brutal is not the word for him.

Seinfeld was decent but Curb has to be one of the most boring and predictable shows going. That plus the jokes just aren't that good. Each to their own I guess

PTH2009 · 07-12-2015 02:55AM

Andrew maxwell
Fred Cooke (so annoying)
Al porter (the gay best friend type)

Owldshtok · 07-12-2015 02:55AM

Not sure if he does stand up anymore,

Neil Delamere.

Saw him recent enough. Very impressed with his improv. Spent half the set just bouncing jokes off the audience's stories and stuff

I didn't really want a debate, I just wanted people to rant over who they didn't like. But OK.

endacl · 07-12-2015 02:57AM

Subjective topic. Impossible to give an answer.

Michael McIntyre.

Sarah Silverberg is worse but Frankie Boyle and Stewart Lee annoy me more, if I wanted to be lectured at by rich white men I would read them when they write in the Guardian.

Irish wise, definitely McSavage, lived in Dublin city center and was exposed regularly to his street comedy and saw a few free shows of his, used to never have new material.

ballsymchugh · 07-12-2015 02:59AM

Amy schumer. Although for some reason it's frowned upon in some circles to say anything against her either. Jaysis she's shyte.
