Last night I was watching one of Jim Gaffigans's comedy specials on Netflix. He along with Sebastian Maniscalco are my favorite comics. Gaffigan is funny, but last night one of his bits had me laughing like I hadn't laughed in years. It had to do with having doughnuts in one of his carry ons and was so funny. I could just visualize it. Do you watch or follow any comics?

I haven't heard of him. The only UK comic I know is Ricky Gervais, oh and James Cordon, as well as Craig Ferguson. They are all well known here...John Cleese too. Rowland Atkinson..

@Gilljane Yes, quite a few are like that.,,,or are obscene. Gaffigan is a clean comic, and Maniscalco isn't too bad...Some don't think their routine is complete without delivering the F bomb every other minute...not for me...even if they are funny.

There are a couple of famous Indian comedians or comic actors here. Kunil Nayar is the most famous. There is the guy who was in the Big Sick, but I don't remember his name, and another one of Indian extraction who was on a sitcom here as well.

I like Chris Rock, but I can’t make it through his specials because the language is so bad. So I would say Fluffy, whose real name is Gabriel Rodriguez. He makes me laugh so hard, and he’s pretty much a clean comedian (at least his specials I watched were). I’m not saying they can’t curse; I’m saying I don’t find the F word funny when it comes out of one’s mouth every three words.

@snowy22315 That’s who I meant! Thank you, I don’t know why I wrote Rodriguez. I meant Iglesias. I love him.

I do not know any of the latest and newest comedians but I do remember being a child of about 8 and for some reason, I just loved to watch The Red Skelton Show I thought that guy was funny and later on it was Lucy all the way.

I haven't ever listened to Dave Chapelle. I know he has gotten in trouble for being homophobic. YOu would probably like Sebastian.
