Colin Quinn? COLIN QUINN??? The only thing funny about that guy is the fact that he's the first guy you think of when you try to name a comedian who isn't remotely funny. His stretch as weekend update anchor was incredibly painful and one of the low points of SNL.

Lampanelli, Mencia, Lopez, Harvey, Conway, Korman & Burnett all MIA, then, Bernhard, Quinn, Brenner, Romano & Shandling are on this. Doesn't make the quiz bad, just makes Comedy Central....disappointing.

Good quiz. Only complaint I have is that Gilbert Gottfried's name is spelled wrong (which is why it wouldn't accept it).

What a crappy crappy list. No Billy Connolly? Comedy DOES exist outside the United States.

At least Eddie Izzard's on here to represent the UK, but only because he's well known in the US.

Is there a version of this list which recognises the fact that we exist?
