I just wondering witch comedys the citizens of the Nexus forums like?
Greetings.Demetrius.
Full Version: Top ten comedys?
I'm not much into comedy sitcoms, but I love stand-up. Recently, I've been laughing my ass off at Lewis Black's stuff, (The Route of all Evil), he's nut's. I also like watching The Cobert Report, he is messed-up, and cute in a dorky sort of way. Oh! yah... there is this great Canadian comedy called Corner Gas it's dry, it's hilarious.

Red Skelton
Richard Wayne "%&$!" Van Dyke
South Park
Whoopi Goldberg
I don't know... there are so many good comedians. But you were looking for the shows I bet. I realy loved Bill Cosby's shows and his stand up and his sit downs. If I had to pick I guess it would be Bill, all around.

I can sit and watch Monty Python back to back, but my favorite is "Eric The Red". I don't think it's a Monty Python, but it is definitly a Terry Gilliam film. (I wonder if I'm related to him, that use to be my maiden name.)
OK, here goes my top 10 comedy movies (I know I will forget one or two or three).
1. A Christmas Story & What about Bob?
2. Back to school & Ghost Busters
3. The Prince’s Bride & Meet the Parents & Meet the Fockers
4. The Water boy & Father of the Bride part1&2
5. Office Space & Monty Python: Holly Grail
6. The Gumball Rally & Christmas Vacation
7. Start the revolution without me
8. The Pink Panther & Smokey and the Bandit
9. Ratatouille & Caddy Shack
10. Animal House & Blazing Saddles & Stripes
(Sorry for cheating)
Honorable mentions (no order):
Scrooged, Happy Gilmore, Space Balls, Monsters INC., Toy Story2, History of the World Part2

Scrubs, Southpark, Drew Carey show (when it was being aired), Family Guy, American Dad, Simpsons.
Just to go outside the norm, and show that I actually watch something other than the garbage that's on American TV.
Puppets who kill (Canadian series, called what it is, has some decent commentary on society, with cynical, homicidal puppets)
Red Dwarf... Up to season 4 or 5 atleast... (Sci-fi comedy, a bit old, good use of models.)
Benny Hill. The Late, great. Enough said.
As far as movies.
Office Space
Clerks
That's all that comes to me at the moment.

I just thought of another movie I should have posted above.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0298482/
Nothing (2003)
I'm going to watch this again now that I remember it.
This movie was so like my life story it creeped me out until I started laughing. Then it healed me like good comedy always does.
PS this is absolutely a true story and should not be watched by any one under the age of 75.
OK Its "official" Nothing is Sativarg's favorite F'n comedy flick yet. Woopy dooopy. Who cares. That's the whole idea.
But see now I also love Will Smith
so much because the man is that that is...
Oh hell this is impossible. I give up...

Do NOT watch the trailer for Nothing before you see the movie; it gives away the climax and a number of the best lines. And make sure to stay through the end credits ... there's a little bonus waiting for you. —Mike

I also forgot about an old British comedy I use to watch when I was little is "Are You Being Served" and "Benny Hill" That could explain a few things about me.
Another is "Absolutely Fabulous" I love Jennifer Saunders, she's messed-up.
