13 Jim Gaffigan

"I can't believe we're still giving clothing as a gift. Cause whenever you get clothing as a present, you always open it up and you think, 'Not even close.'

12 Buddy Hackett

9 Norm Macdonald

Norm Macdonald’s turtle joke from a 1996 Conan appearance, also includes an explanation of the joke directly after.

8 Bill Bailey

“I’m a vegetarian. I’m not strict; I eat fish, and duck. Well, they’re nearly fish, aren’t they? They’re semi-submerged a lot of the time, they spend a lot of time in the water, they’re virtually fish, really. And pigs, cows, sheep, anything that lives near water, I’m not strict. I’m sort of like a post-modern vegetarian; I eat meat ironically.”

7 Fred Armisen

Fred Armisen showcases his talent for doing every American accent state by state in his special, Standup For Drummer.

6 Josie Long

“‘What’s a couple?’ I asked my mum. She said, ‘Two or three’. Which probably explains why her marriage collapsed.”

5 Robin Williams

Elmo: “Whoa. Thank you, Mr. Robins.”

Robin: “Mr. Robins? I’m taking the stick back, Elmo.”

In this collection of outtakes from Sesame Street, Robin Williams improvises some great jokes with just a stick and a puppet.

4 Stewart Francis

“My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We’ll see about that.’”

3 Tim Heidecker

Tim Heidecker’s special, An Evening With Tim Heidecker is a pretty meta act, considering the entire point of the show is for Tim to tell the worst jokes possible. Tim puts on a persona of a terrible hack stand-up comic for the entire hour set, and even adds some crowd work to his arsenal.
