Search for the Least Funny

Topics

brisket

I am thinking mainly, here, of people who do 'stand-up' comedy, or chat shows or panel games.
(People as solo entertainers rather than actors reading somebody else's lines.)
I thought it might be fun, or interesting, (or neither of these things) to find out who
we think is the least funny.
So perhaps if you can think of 4 UNfunny people. Those most nominated can be put into a poll to find the least funny.
No need to ponder hard and long. Just off the top of your head. Whoever you first think of as NOT funny.
My 4 least funny are:
Michael McIntyre
Leigh Francis (aka Bo Selecta and Keith Lemon)
Ricky Gervais
Gina Yashere

Thanks

You can add Roy "Chubby" Brown and Bernard Manning to the list - vile in the extreme.

Whoever they are on Smack The Pony. Running around gurning and shouting about your labia isn't funny, ladies.

James Corden.

.... yet very funny.

Mine would be as above ^^^ Harry Hill (used to be a really funny structuralist stand-up)

Jonathan Ross, Jimmy Carr, Gina Yashere.

Ah! That knocks out Bernard Manning then. I believe that Barry Cryer and Tim Brooke Taylor wrote his stuff.

I thought The Office was brilliant but when I saw him doing stand up on tv I switched off after 5 minutes

Why do some comedians rely on sex or filth to be comedians, it's not funny just smutty playground stuff. Like you mentioned above I also like the Victoria Wood, Dawn French, Morecambe and Wise and Les Dawson style of comedy

Of today's comics I like Peter Kay, I also like observational comedians like Eddie Izzard and Billy Connolly

oops Brisket might tell me off in a minute as I'm mentioning who I like and not sticking with who I don't lol

I'd like your opinions.

As there are almost 30 UNfunny people nominated it would be a pretty big poll.How about if I just include those who received more than 1 (2 or more) nominations.That would make it a bit more manageable.What do you think?Thanks
