I hate anyone who likes Jay Leno. I don't understand what people see in him.
Don't like Conan either, but definitely hate him less than I hate leno.

Steve Dolson is funny, but should be ever remove his beard, then I will stop reading his blogs in protest.
Also, Dylan Moran is one of the funniest people on the planet, youtube him.

Anyone who is interested in the Jay/Conan situation MUST watch this. This is a clip of the show where Jay said he would hand over the Tonight Show to Conan. It's very .. ironic?
Tina Fey is hilarious, which kindof throws a kink into the whole females not being funny thing. I may be slightly in love with her.
In general though, I think there aren't really any funny female stand up comedians. There aren't really any funny male ones either, but I think in general female ones are slightly less funny. I'll check out Chelsea Handler, but if she's anything like Wanda Sykes I'll probably really dislike her.
But yeah, on topic: you're probably a really funny guy in real life and all, but the websites didn't do it for me. In general, I like Arrested Development, 30 Rock, Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, stuff like that.
EDIT: You guys seriously think she's funny? Now I am really hoping that comment about her being smart humour was sarcastic...

Mr Dolson,
Can you please do a Nightman Cometh Sketch from It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia? We wanted to do it in the recent presidential campaign with the team I was with; that never really happened, It would be awesome!

Chelsea Handler? What did you watch?
I don't think Michelle was being sarcastic.
As for Conan and Jay I don't care, I don't watch either. I rarely watch late night shows b/c they're on so late but when I do I generally watch Chelsea Lately and that's it.

I agree, Andrew. I don't think her humour is "smart" at all. The stuff I watched is exactly like the stuff they were bashing about dane cook. She's not funny, it's not smart humour. She's the same as any other female comedian.
Debra G is okay. Her stuff is decent, but not anything that makes me REALLY lol. I chuckle at most.
Edit: I remembered one of my favorites.
mitch hedberg. <3 and whitest kids.
Edit 2: ... I'm watching one of her videos and she's talking about piss and shit... how is that not on the same level as a fart joke?

I'd never heard of her, so i looked her up, and the first joke she did was a joke like that. Then the related videos at the end showed other ones about sex toys and balls. How is this "smarter" than other comics? She seems pretty par for the course in terms of content, but I sat through 3 videos and didnt laugh once, so I gave up.

My favourite comedian was George Carlin. Now there was a comedic genious; a great mix of intelligent, witty humour and crass.
