Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy

 

So far, all English-speaking comedians.

Not very representative.

 

Pretty sure Gabriel Iglesias and Carlos Mencia speak spanish

 

[facepalm]

you guys really have some bad ideas of what Greatest Comedian of All Time means...

Carlos Mencia is a joke thief. He's not a comedian at that point, but an entertainer.
Dane Cook is a joke thief. Likewise, good entertainer, lousy comedian.

 

your sarcasm detector

And I'm pretty sure they speak English, which is what I said.

I didn't say that they speak only English. Don't misinterpret what I said.

I'm sure, however, that there are a number of excellent comedians who do not speak English, none of whom have appeared in this thread. There must be some great French, Japanese, Peruvian, Swedish, Congolese, and German comedians (amongst others) who speak not a word of English.

(Eddie Izzard, by the way, is fluent in French.)
