i have to agree with michael mcintyre but i also add jennifer saunders, jack dee, harry hill, and a host of "new" comics whose names i don't even try to remember

Thanks for starting the ball rolling machel.
I agree about some of the newer comics.
They seem to think it is sufficient to sit on a panel on a television show and waffle aimlessly.
They fool themselves into thinking that everything they say will, in some way be funny, but it usually isn't. No sign of real wit or humour.

Definitely Harry Hill


and ... i give you    Vic Reeves

Jim Davidson

Phil Jupitas

Ricky Gervais - except on a very few occasions. I cringe most of the rest of the time.

That horrible Frankie Boyle..  

Yeah = Reeves and Mortimer, though I think Reeves was worse.

A third vote for Michael McIntyre, BTW.

And I agree with Machel about a 'whole host of new people' who's names just pass me by.

I'll add
Shappi Khorsandi    and
Gina Yashere

Possibly. I do not know these names, but they could fall into the "'whole host of new people' who's names just pass me by." category.

Ye gods, I don't know where to start. Yes I do - Leigh Francis.

Oh, and Matt Lucas and David Walliams. Not funny, just offensive and childish.

ED BLOODY BYRNE

Gaaaahh!  He is the least funny person on the PLANET and yet he appears to be on every comedy panel show on TV!!!    He makes my blood boil....oh and Russell Howard and Andy Parsons on to that too

Oh yes and whoever said Shappi Korsandi...can't stand her either

That's his name !!! Been sat here racking my iddy biddy brain ...
Russell Howard - not funny at all  

For Comic Relief David Walliams did a 24 hour marathon panel show round the clock (QI, Call My Bluff and so on.) Excerpts are on BBC 3 tonight. I have seen a little of the Call My Bluff one.
Call My Bluff used to be quite funny I recall. But here we have a man called Tim Key waffling away, aimlessly and endlessly with a manner which suggests he thinks he is being funny. But it is painfully UNfunny. Another of the new guys.
So I'll add Tim Key to the list.
(It's going to be a long poll.)

Frankie Boyle's a funny one...not funny ha ha but funny as in weird.  I feel like I should find him funny because he's so popular so I laugh, but actually he's a bit crude for me

oh jees I can't believe I forgot Ricky Gervais!  Funny when he does recorded TV shows, but I don't get his stand up routine.  I just don't get his jokes

oh forgot..........jimmy carr

 
"I have no problems with buying tampons. I am a fairly modern man. But apparently they're not a "proper" present..... "Happy birthday, mum!""
 
 

That's supposed to be funny? How?

P.S. I don't find it offensive, I just don't see whare the humour's supposed to be.

Sillyness and stupidity as an excuse for humour just turns me off!

Ricky Gervais and James Cordon.

In reality its only a 2 horse race.

Quite a lengthy list of people we think are NOT funny.
Not surprising perhaps.
I will do a poll later in the day.

Dawn French, Victoria Wood, Alan Carr, Keith Lemon, Morecambe and Wise, Harry Hill. They all  make me 

Misdirection Fluffs
 
Prolly better spoken than in text form though

P.S. Don't tell Mr. Fluffy Thing I nominated Ricky Gervaise. He likes his stuff.

I find mnost of the poeple mentioned about funny (bar Jim Davidson).  For me the most unfunny person is Lee Evans,

I change channels if he comes on.

Ricky Gervais
Jack Dee
John Bishop

Brisket, yep I definitely agree with James Corden.
Also Patrick Kielty.  And two comedians I used to find funny, but no longer do, are Harry Hill and Paul Merton.

I like Jack Dee Darlo 

Gervais...without a doubt the unfunniest of the lot....how the chuff did he get where he is???????


Also can't stand Gina Yashere, Lucas and Walliams, Ben Elton, Alexi Sayle, Frank Skinner, Peter Kaye and Catherine Tate can be spectacularly unfunny when she wants!!!

Sarah Millican is also annoying as held. That voice couple with her lack of humour.

Most of m'faves seem to be mentioned above. Do the Ant n Dec count? They seem to think that they are amusing.

I'll add 'em Joe 
It's going to be a long poll. 

Wow I am surprised at some of the offerings here.  I am with you garage joe...Many that people have mentioned I think are really good comics.  Lee Evans, Michael MacIntyre, Alan Carr, Harry Hill and Jack Dee. especially.  I have been pissing myself laughing at Lee Evans in concert and am gobsmacked at anyone who doesn't laugh at him.  People obviously have different sense of humours.., Jimmy Carr, and Frankie Boyle are talented and funny but sometimes too controversial and offensive.  Sorry, but taking the piss out of the disabled is not funny. 

And someone said they hate Morcambe and Wise!  I loved them!  And Sarah Millican too.  Who DO people find funny?!  (I mean out of the ones who don't seem to find really good (IMO) comics funny?  Because there are some really talented and funny comics being slated here....  (Well they are in my opinion.    )

Have to agree with Cordon and Horne though, they are shit, and I also rarely find Jonathan Ross or Ricky Gervais funy. And Vic Reeves is shite, and boring too.  Peter Kay is pretty good but a tad over rated...   Bob Monkhouse was good... I saw him in real life several times, when I was in the audience of his quiz shows a few times, and in the breaks between filming, he really entertained the audience.  Bruce Forsyth is good too....

Ta! Otherwise James Corden gets an easy run at it.

While I'm at it, I have a guilty confession to make...  I never found Morecambe and Wise all that funny  The much - underrated Two Ronnies ( epecially Ronnie Barker ) had me in hoots however.


And another "classic" comedian from the past who leaves me cold is Tony Hancock. I don't understand why he is revered so much.

Russel kane, Gervis, Dylan moran, erm ...
