I also really like Dana Carvey. Of course, The master of Disguise was a bad movie. But Dana made it watchable because he did fantastic at his role(s)! It's because of him I bump my rating of that movie from a 1 to a 4.

I hear you, but it's like Jurassic Park to me. It just never gets old, even if it's nostalgia speaking.

You have to admit though, that the Jay Leno rant on the album is still fresh, relevant, and hysterical today.

Ah yes, Carpet Remnant World. Most of my friends think it's the best thing he's ever done, whereas I think it's his flattest show in years. That said, it's still a million times better than most other stand-up shows.

It's interesting you say that. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it but I know what you mean. The pace of the show is certainly very different. My wife's not much of a fan and usually finds him quite tedious (which amuses me no end) but she really enjoyed this show.

-Eddy Murphy's stand up in his orange leather jumpsuit
-Dave Chappelle's white power skit (among others)
-Louie C.K.'s cynical, nuanced account of life
-Kevin Hart's stand up though heavily focused on black culture, his son and being short, is hilarious
-Richard Pryor (one of the best comedians of our time)

I urge everyone to take six and a half minutes out of their day and watch this. It is the greatest six and a half minutes of standup I have ever seen.

About Tim Minchin, I saw his joke about his wife sens of humor, I found it inappropriate but most of all not funny. I might give him a chance if I try to see one full show.

Yeah, don't watch a full special of his. Just stick to his TV appearances (honestly, that's what I've done). Note how I picked which video to share, very carefully.
