I'm sure that many of you will agree with me. Mine is Ron White. But I suggest you check out Sebastian Maniscalco. He is Sicilian and really works the Italian accent. Especially when he talks about his father. The first time I saw him I found him to be kind of irritating. But I quickly became a fan.

You can find him on Youtube....along with a few hundred more. If you find him irritating at first be patient. His humor may grow on you. His humor is the funnier version of the truth.

I agree with Tom on Carlin as#1 "all time stand-up." I about laughed inside out watching "About my Father" with Maniscalco. Being 100% Italian, even though my old man was nothing like his, I got every nuance, quirk, attitude and value shown. Worth a watch, no matter where you came from. Joe
 
I gave up watching comedians because 19 out of 20 are a long way from funny. I'd have to agree on Ron White as the best I'm aware of, but I don't know who else is out there. Might be some that could come close, but are there any that are better?
 
Sebastian is one of my favorites among the living comics. George Carlin and Richard Pryor were 2 of the best all time. Eddie’s Murphy gets an honorable mention.
 
1. Pryor
2. Carlin
3. Chappelle
4. Newhart
5. Iglesias

Honorable mentions to MacDonald, Murphy, White, Foxworthy and Burr.

Guilty pleasures are Theo Von, Ali Siddiq, Jeff Dunham and Ron Shock.
