I respect and knowledge the greats that were mentioned in the opening post, but for me, my personal favorites are:

-Richard Pryor
-Bill Cosby (his stand up on HBO in 1984 that he based his show on made me HOWL!!)
-Flip Wilson (loved watching him do Geraldine)
-Redd Foxx
-Eddie Murphy (not as funny now as he was in his heyday, but I still like him)

More recent:
-The Wayans (all of them!)
-Cedric The Entertainer
-Steve Harvey
-D.L. Hughley (spelling??)
Dave Chappelle

I also like Jim Carey, Robin Williams ("Mork calling Orsen, come in Orsen!"), Gene Wilder...my goodness, just too many to mention!

Not a huge fan of the Three Stooges...I just don't see what's funny about being poked in the eye...that shit hurts!!!
