Seinfeld has about 50 million reasons not to care about what anyone thinks. Haha? 9 or 10 years on T.V. He made over 50 million for that show just for syndication.? Who knows how much he makes with the DVD's.? He was offered 5 million and episode to do 1 more year and said no.? I heard he's doing regular stand up and that he may have a movie coming out?

Carlin plays the angry 1960's stand up comic who is well into his 60's maybe 70's.? He was also the narrator for Thomas the Train so how angry can he really be?? He brilliantly makes his money on profanity laced political humor and normal everyday stupid occurances.

Could not have said it better my self JMack!!

If you wanna hear some funny shit you're not expecting, check out Bob Saget... He's got an upcoming HBO special... "Ask me my favorite episode of Full House..." *Crowd asks* "The last one" 


on topic, carlin is great

reading you, comedian experts, it seems that jerry seinfeld rarely makes it to the top 5 list ... ?

I've never found him in the least bit funny honestly. Just my opinion though.

Just out of interest, do you like the humour of Woody Allen?

talkin about the 1st gulf war ... still sounds true.
man, that guy hates the us

I remember his gulf war comedy from some HBO special, as a kid.  Missiles = penises, if memory serves.

With Lewis Black the thing I dislike most is his constant yelling. Yes. You're angry, we get it. But still.. He has some really good bits. Silverman's biggest problem is that she can't present all that potential she clearly has and goes sometimes for the shockfactor when she could've had a great piece of actual comedy with the material.. About Eddie Murphy. Raw came after Delirious. So. Development. From there on.. Well... I don't know what he was thinking. Maybe easy cash? The Lynch DVD for me is good for a few plays. I like playing his songs at partys where we play sometimes.

The thing about being a stand up comedy fan in Finland is that I have to try really hard to find new good ones. The whole industry (if you can call it that) is very young. It's only now becoming a more popular thing. And the problem with that is that the comics are as a rule of thumb... bad. So through out these years (last 7-8), I've had to rely on American and British comics. Which is again hard because the good ones are never displayed to the public (though I guess I prefer that.. the whole comedy being my thing and not in the media all the time..)

Hey Skeba, if you want to check out more Aussie comedians, Adelaide holds a Fringe Festival every year - it's the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere - many comedians 'cut their teeth' at this event from all over the world. The event is held in small venues all across the city and one of our parks is set up as "The Garden of Unearthly Delights" - you walk into small tents and who know what you may find.

on topic, carlin is great?

I saw Saget live at the Old Westbury Music Fair about a month ago.? He is a brutal, funny, real comedian.? I love the looks on the peoples faces who excpected what he was going to say and of those who didn't.? Oh that Gibler girl..She could give some blow job.? I wonder if she still does?? Funny dude.? I think he recently said that they would record the show with the kids first and they would leave and the rest of the cast would do the remainder because they could be so vulgar and? raunchy.? Especially Bob himself.? He is with Opie and Anthony's Virus Tour right now I think.? I know he was doing most of the shows.? Louie C.K. and Jimmy Norton are also real funny but some crude stuff comes out of their mouths that are so funny yet so wrong. HaHA
Later man...
