Who was your favourite comedian as a child/teen?

[reecejackox]

I would say Frankie Boyle and Russell Howard

I guess when I was young it was Abbott and Costello. But a lot of that may have been due to a lot of exposure to their movies, as a local station ran one every Sunday at I believe 11:30 AM. So I saw them over and over and over….

George Burns

 

[AussieFan8]

Eddie Murphy

 

[RangerPooh]

Jeff Foxworthy

Gallagher. But watching it as an adult, he was definitely not child appropriate!! We went to one of his live shows as a family when I was about 10.

I liked Eddie Murphy and of course Saturday Night Live (back when it was the original cast) and I saw Red Skelton with my parents and I thought he was hilarious.

I've never been fond of comedians, but there were two that always made me laugh out loud -- Red Skelton and Tim Conway.
