Don’t really remember the names of most comedians I like Maybe you'll remember the names after someone else posts them? Good luck! It's why I try to keep and update lists. |

Don’t really remember the names of most comedians I like Maybe you'll remember the names after someone else posts them? Good luck! It's why I try to keep and update lists. Quite possibly. I enjoy a lot of the stand up I see but it's not something I follow or am particularly passionate about. I don't have the same problem with film or music which are both a lot more important to me. |
