    This oughta be right up our alley.

    Got the original list off here: http://coedmagazine.com/2009/01/09/the-top-10-most-unfunny-comedians-of-all-time/

    It has clips of all 10 of his finalists, in case you'd forgotten how unfunny they are.

    All due disrespect to the others, but I don't see how Dane Cook isn't unanimous.

    I never found Mitch Hedberg funny.

    Also, the only person on that list I've seen live is Carrot Top, and I laughed more than a few times. This was before he became a female bodybuilder, though.

    I guess if I go off the list, I find Doug Stanhope absolutely painful. Just unfunny gross-out jokes over and over.

    Jim Gaffigan gets under my skin too, for totally different reasons.

    Ray Romano and Jay Leno are so collectively unfunny that if they fucked, they'd give birth to a West Virginia phone book made out of sandpaper and Owens-Corning Fiberglas®.

    Useless list. Anyone who would put Fallon on there hasn't watched one second of his late night show, including the author of that list, since it came out more than three years ago.

    Hey, I think a couple of them on there are not unfunny.

    Just a jumping-off point.

    I'm pretty sure I've heard at least one Dane Cook joke that made me crack a smile. Maybe he stole it.

    But Kathy Griffin has never even come close to being funny to me. I take that back. Her turn on Seinfeld was pretty funny, but that was because the gag was how awful she was.

    Gaffigan is hilarious.

    Carlos Mencia made his living stealing jokes and making them bad.

    maybe this dates me, but no person has ever been more unfunny than sinbad ... nobody.
