I understand how influential he was, but I still can't get into his stand-up. He was incredibly grating to me.

Are they in completely different columns or are they all in the same category of comedy to you?

No it makes sense now. Sort of like, I like Chris Rock, Richard Pryor & George Carlins stand up but I like the writers from Family Guy, right?

Oh add anther one for Kevin James, "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff".
