I don't like American comedians on the whole. There humour tends to be crude, and most of the time, they just swear and expect a laugh.
British humour is more funny - like Peter Kay
Someone here has never heard Jim Gaffigan or Zach Galifianakis...

Beats danish humour. Some guy puts on a hat and pretends to pedophile, alcoholic, constantly law breaking sailor. Its crude as hell and rather offensive...
Personally my favorite comedian of all time, Robert Klein. He's interesting, because he was very inappropriate, not because of cursing, but because his comedy had very questionable taste a lot of the time (For instance his, "My Wife, I Think I'll Keep Her" sketch). However, when he was on TV (such as in the following video) he was forced to be a lot more "G" rated, and so although this isn't as funny as his pure comedy bits, some pieces of it are funny:
I think the only american "comedian" people care about in Europe is Dave Chapelle. And its mainly because "ha ha! Black man talking about other black men being beaten up by evil police men! Oh ha ha he made a joke about whiteys being superior to black people. Im going to tell that to my resident arab kiosk-owner."

If I can find any of his true stuff, the tapes where he didn't have to hold back, you'd be on the floor laughing, that bit isn't that great, but i can't find anything else of his.
Where the hell is fredthebitch? I kinda miss cussing him out on a daily basis...

I have both of his DVD's, and I enjoy them a lot. Sure, some of his stuff isn't great, but with that said, he's the comedian that have made me laugh the most.
