Worst Comedians of all time?

LUClEN · June 2012

I wanted to find a list of the worst comedians of all time, and ended up finding one on Maxim.com

The number 1 worst comedian on there was Sinbad. I am a bit too young to remember Sinbad really, so I had to peep some of his stuff on youtube to see if he really deserves the title of worst comedian of all time.

I gotta say, this dude is ? funny. Anyone really agree that he's the worst of all time, or that any of the people on this list deserve to be there?

Here's some clips for you to judge

The Maxim List is as follows:

12. Carlos Mancia
11. Christopher Titus
10. Judy Tenuta
9. Kathy Griffin
8. Gallagher
7. Paula Poundstone
6. Sandra Bernhard
5. Louie Anderson
4. Yakov Smirnoff
3. Whoopi Goldberg
2. Margaret Cho
1. Sinbad

I gotta check up on more of these, but the only ones I think belong there are Smirnoff, Cho, Gallagher, Mancia and Louie Anderson.

Here's the link

Carlos Mencia should be number one on that list. I despise that guy. Margaret Cho sucks as well. I thought some of Christopher Titus' ? was pretty funny, havent really heard the rest besides whoopi and louie anderson.

#1 for me is def carlos mencia tho.

LUClEN · June 2012

A lot of the people on that list are nobodies, or haven't been popular for awhile which shows that the list is old.

Much better list I think, and there is some overlap

Amotekun · June 2012

Still invalid. To me SInbad being on there is some political ? . Every comedy special Sinbad has is a classic.
No Cape so I'll put some clips from his specials let yall judge. IMO puttin SInbad on a list of worst comedians is like puttin Slick Rick on a list of worst emcees. ? is a GOAT storyteller. This dude has won Image Awards for almost every comedy special and has guested at numerous events.

SMH @ Sinbad being one of that list...very invalid. Sinbad is very funny and his act is clean.

Chef_Taylor · June 2012

Sinbad shouldnt be #1 on that list..matter of fact he shouldnt be on it at all...all these corny ass comedians out here and they go with sinbad as the worse.smh always gotta be a brotha.

bignorm · June 2012

smh at sinbad being on the list.
I hate Margaret Cho, but she always talks about freak ? , which i like hearing.

She once said she was only gonna use her ass for sex for 2 years, and then
was going to have a "grand re-opening" of her ? , complete with a ribbon cutting and a band.

I was like ..............

genocidecutter · June 2012

Easily Charlie Murphy

Iheart~Cali · June 2012

I've only seen one Dane Cook stand up years ago and I laughed.
Aside from that his rom coms are pretty ok.

But why the hell do they have Whoopi Goldberg on there?

Beta · June 2012

surprised nobody posted hamburger jones...

Disciplined InSight · June 2012

Dustin "Screech" Diamond should've been definitely on that list:

And I know he's a legend but Eddie should've told his brother the truth:

G Mack · June 2012

sinbad def not the worst...I'd say he's to 30 though

PILL_COSBY · June 2012

SMH of all the terrible white comedians(there's a lot!!!) i've seen that get rave reviews sinbad, whoopie, and george lopez are on that list?

where's Seinfeld lame ass at with his dry ass jokes.?

ellen................?

this chick is not that bad and she's a hit or miss but how is sarah silverman not up there? She aint fumier than whoopie or sinbad. you will fall asleep on her.

ricky gervais, this dude is guaranteed to put you to sleep. most boring comedian of all time!!

gilbert gofrey

the list goes on.

Ned holness aka carlos mencia should have been number 1 because he isn't a comedian. he aint mexican either lol. cuzzo steals all his jokes. this cat made it on some officer ricky ? . He once sat up and did an entire set stealing bill cosby. george lopez, and paul mooney's older jokes from back in the day. George lopez caught him slipping one day and slapped him up.

Will Munny · June 2012

Margaret Cho is ? horrible, she should be one, and Carlos Mencia #2. I don't get the sinbad hate but whatever I haven't heard much of his stuff.

this is much better. except i'd have carrot top at 1 & i'd move dane cook down a few spots but still in the top 10. sinbad needs to be taken off the list completely.
