Who's the Greatest Comedian of All Time?

Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean)

DON RICKLES.....no doubt about it!

For me it was Kaufman....his ability to insult the audience while getting them to laugh at their own hypocrisy.

I truly believe most had not a clue...and still do not.

Here is a link to a playlist of his Carnegie Show....classic Kaufman before TPTB got to him.

George Carlin Hands down.

George Carlin. I miss that dude. Recently caught Carlos Mencia on the comedy network. He's good. Of course, Andy Kauffman was also one of the greats.

Saw Buddy Hackett in a live show on HBO years ago....laughed so hard I had tears rolling! Great timing and talent!

RICHARD PRYOR

Andy Kaufmann is a good one.. he inspired Bill Hicks to come back as Alex Jones - now that is FUNNY!

Of course Richard Pryor deserves to be up there

Not only was he the greatest ever, he would've been an awesome guy to just have a beer with!

Carlin is #1.

The Tommy Cooper Hour

Saw George Carlin in Vegas, very funny. Now one of the most intelligent and interesting is the Canuck Ronny James.
