We have been doing a top ten comedy list for ten years now. This year though I do have an official number 1, the superb Explosion Land by David Huntsberger. The rest of the list is in no particular order (and I still can’t count). If you disagree, email me at contest @ nameofthiswebsitedotcom and maybe I’ll send you a CD or DVD for your troubles.

Caligula – Anthony Jeselnik: If you are not already familiar with Jeselnik, your introduction to this comic will probably benefit from viewing the DVD (which the image links to) rather than listening to the CD. The reason for this is simple and, to fans of Jeselnik, rather obvious — that is, Jeselnik’s stage presence and almost ever-present smirk adds quite a bit of personality and context to the show Review
Bill Cosby – Far From Finished – Comedy Central Review
