For the living, I’m going to throw in Gary Gulman. His structure is unbelievable.

As amazing as past comedians such as George Carlin were, Jon Stewart remains on the air today and I think that gives him the edge:-).

this question will definitely have a huge debate on it, but the GOAT is dead: George Carlin

It’s a pity Carlin is dead. He could have run with Stewart as Veep.

He was the best. He still is, but he was, too.

Got the chance to see him a year or so before his passing.

He was still on fire. Killer set right until the end. There will never be another of his like again I fear.
