Carlin was my favorite comedian. Rodney was good too but not as good as George

Almost any older comedian you ask will tell you that either Carlin or Richard Pryor are the funniest comics ever.

I don't know if I'd agree, but I definitely prefer Carlin over Dangerfield. I was never really a huge fan of Dangerfield, whereas Carlin was incredible, especially during his middle period (when he was less hippie than he was in his early routines, but not quite as bitter as he'd get in his later work).

The only downside with Carlin was when stupid people would quote everything he said like the holy writ of a philosopher (especially the political stuff), but that phase seems mostly over at this point (probably because a lot of the younger idiots on the Internet barely know who he is anymore). So I can go back to loving his bits about language and social mores.

Carlin was hilarious at times, and worth listening to as well for his philosophical rants. Dangerfield got a lot of renown, but wasn't all that funny to me.

I wasn't bothered by it or anything (I'm agnostic, he certainly wasn't going to offend me). But it got irritating as fuck when some of the more annoying angstheists would parrot back stuff he said like it was a magical charm that would set religious people on fire.

Like I said, though, that seems like it's a phase that has kind of passed. Or maybe I've just stopped paying attention to most of the more annoying people online.

Rodney Dangerfield the only time he was actually funny was in Caddyshack and Wally Sparks. He was an old fashioned comedian that was clean with no dirty jokes or anything.

George Carlin had the balls to say the stuff that noone else would at the time

what do you have against dirty jokes? i just care if the jokes are funny, and many times they are dirty jokes, well at least some people would classify them as dirty

If you don't like dirty comics, you should listen to Brian Regan. He's pretty funny, and he's more or less famous for being extremely non-sweary.

Carlin is overrated imo and never saw anything by Dangerfield

Il say Louis C.K. is my favorite though, he's like Carlin but funnier

Burr, Chappelle, and Hedberg (R.I.P.) are also up there

Carlin is still the best comedian of all time.

Dangerfield was funny but never branched far beyond his schtick

Yeah, I've tried, I just don't get dangerfield, his humor has never worked for me. I watch both of the videos, but nope.....no dice.
