Dane Cook is awesome.

Nick Swardson is good too.

Martin Lawrence is probably the best though. His standups are fuckin' hilarious.

he does stand up too.... i think you can get a dvd called 'animals' which is his stand up. seen quite a bit of it and its very funny.


Yeah but the stand up video was the first time he ever did stand up. The best stuff is his shows on XFM, which there are probably archives of on their website. spontaneous irreverent and brilliant.

They were indeed the highlight of many a slow Sunday afternoon. Also the first time I heard Wesley Willis.

I used to see Gervais around quite a lot, as he was the entertainments manager of the Student Union when I studied in London. His segments on the 11 o'clock show were great, I especially remember his impersonation of Andy Kershaw as impersonating 'Kersh' is something that personally gives me great pleasure.
