Live...his stand-up routine is hilarious (to me...& many others) - totally off the wall (& NO swearing!)
Each to their own though I guess
Lenny Henry has not made me laugh since he stopped impersonations as his main theme.
Miranda Hart is a bit too "Carry-on" type humour for me.
Lee Evans...occasionally funny, just a tirade of swearing that just quickly gets on my nerves (but then - any of the comedians swearing every other word fall into this bracket)
Jo Brand - very tired formula that is stuck in the '80s
Russell Brand...watched him twice over about a 2yr period & didn't find anything remotely funny on either occasion. He can be amusing when interviewed on chat shows.
This is a very negative thread...lets start another "Funniest comedian(en)s" instead

Yes indeed.
And my choices would be;
Lenny Henry, Miranda Hart, Lee Evans, Jo Brand and Russell Brand.

Gina Yashere. She has one joke "I'm Nigerian right hurrrr hurrrr"
David Baddiel & Frank Skinner
Jasper Carrot.
Dale Winton
Bruce Forsythe (national treasure my arse...nice to see you... no it ain't).
Ant and Dec
Miranda Hart - ruined series 2-4 of not going out.
Russell Howard
Milton Jones
Andy Parsons - every joke of his starts with 'now then...' or 'apparently...' and then takes just over a month to finish.
Adrian Chiles
John Motson
Steve Claridge
Jim Rosenthal
That's about it off the top of my head...
These days I generally don't watch tv much.

Bruce Forsyth is one of the dinosaurs that the BBC refuse to let go... Babbling baffoon.should have gone years ago.
Adding to the Jo Brand dislike list.
Not necessarily the performers I dislike but the show: Flight of the conchords. I think I can be deported for saying that.

I kind of agree with this too. His 1st/2nd dvd was funny but after that its kind of same old same old. His newest DVD is a complete joke "Peter Kay LIVE" .... just interviews and highligts :S nothing "live" about it :S
Very few "comedians" make me laugh these days. They seem to think that swearing makes them instantly funny - doesn't work as far as I'm concerned.
Some annoy me more than others - Russell Brand, Jack Whitehall to name two.

Yes, Mrs Browns Boys. I only have to see a picture of it and it turns my guts. Only ever seen 20 seconds of it. Hated ot.
