Rogan has been beating Ned up on this for a while now (it's almost old). I think George Lopez backed Rogan as well on the fact the Ned steals jokes... |

The new comics these days are GREAT!
There's a total resurgence in stand-up right now...
Louis CK
Daniel Tosh
George Lopez
Mitch Fatel
Patton Oswalt
David Cross
Frank Caliendo
Bill Burr
Pablo Francisco
Joe Rogan
Dave Attell
Brian Regan
...and a whole bunch more I can't think of right now.
It's all about Sirius radio's "Raw Dog!!"
But I'm sooooo sick of Dane Cook.
And I'm kinda over Mencia. _________________ Everything. Changes. |

I've personally never found Joe Rogan that funny, but Carlos Mencia is even less funny, so good for Joe.
Dane Cook was funny when I first saw his special on Comedy Central, but less so since then. _________________ Game recognize game, Granddad. - Riley Freeman, The Boondocks |

Rogan is great... I saw him do stand up way before Fear Factor... probably close to 10 years ago...
Bill Bur is my new favorite comic.... hysterical!!! |

Unfortunately, this has led to Joe Rogan being banned from The Comedy Store in LA where he has been performing for the last 13 years.
Absolutely ridiculous.
You can check out the story from Joe himself on his myspace blog.
Here's a blurb:
Quote: | It's also indicative of this massive problem we have in the comedy community in general. Here you have a club that basically sells other people's art. They put the chairs there, sell the drinks and turn the mic on, and the artists do the rest. You have a situation where a comic that's been known for stealing other people material gets called out onstage, exposed, and then the video is put on the internet for all to see, and their reaction is to ban the guy that exposed him and made the video. To the thief, they sit back quietly and profit from his crime. It's truly (bleep) mind blowing. There's not another art form in the world where the creative rights of the artist get as little respect. If they banned the both of us for this incident, then I would understand that they're just trying to avoid conflict, but the fact that they have told me to "take a break" but they have him onstage this weekend is just a tremendous slap in the face to me, and to the art of stand up comedy.

As much as I'd like to see Carlos Mencia get embarrassed (stolen or not, his material sucks), that isn't exactly what happened there. That border fence joke is so generic (and unimaginative) that it could have easily been made up by both Ari and Carlos without any stealing involved. And Bobby Lee is just a really insecure dude, meaning he could have been lying about Mencia stealing or not so he could be friends with both Joe and Carlos depending on which guy he was hanging out with.
If George Lopez was really outspoken like Rogan has been about Mencia stealing, that would be huge. But instead he just roughed him up a little and that was the end of that.
Rogan seems like a cool guy, but he's just not a great comic. And because he isn't a very successful comic (more people know him through Fear Factor and UFC), I can't see this affecting Mencia's career at all. I believe he has the second highest rated show on Comedy Central behind only South Park. |

Ive seen Dane Cook, Mencia, Rogan, Bob Saget, Gabrial Inglasias, Jon Lovitz, and Andrew Dice Clay and a bunch of other no names.
Cook, Mencia, Saget and Gabrial were the funniest of the group. It doesnt seem that many of you are Cook fans but I happen to think he is very funny. Saget is hilarious, as is Gabrial. Mencia has a great stage presence (like Rogan says in the Vid), though it does sound like he steals material. _________________ Go Lakers

A goon is a person who frequents that board (www.somethingawful.com)no offense made you would know it if I did. I know you're not I'm just stating that Menica sucks which he does that whole dur dee dur crap is stupid. I find him offensive as a mexican person that whole beaner schtick is played out. |

I remember that one cracked me up hard the first time I heard it. It's one of those lines that takes you a split second to get it and then it's just hilarious. It's difficult to be funny with that one-liner style, but his delivery is just so good.
Demetri Martin is a current one-liner comic inspired by Mitch. So is Zach Galifanakis. They're okay, but most of the time I just chuckle at their stuff, but never laugh really hard. One-liners are hard to get a big payoff with unless you are Mitch Hedberg. |

Mitch did Steven Wright, and took it to another level.
Mitch Hedberg and David Cross are my favorite comedians easily. |
