My order of preference:

1. John (great delivery, great material. I think he's the funniest of this bunch.)
2. Alonzo (Great delivery, good material)
3. Tammy (average in my opinion)
4. Jay (His one liners are funny, I am a little tired of the crap in between though)
5. Gary (bumped down for the beating he took at the roast, I think he did go overboard a little!)
6. Kathleen (Has she actually said anything funny yet on this show???)


Now, having done that, I can also say that all of these 6 are below five from last year (Rich, Dave, Kory, Tess, and Rob) Those 5 could have a field day on these goons (Except John and Alonzo, I think they're pretty good)

Cmon das, you're funnier than Jay London
My girlfriend told me to "hit the road." I needed surgery on my hand. Thank you. Am I bothering you, sir? I'll move back here. I went to a bar and ordered a shot of whiskey, but I fainted before he could stick it in me. I went ... to a bar ... and ... thank you. Thank you. It's almost over, ma'am.

Haha, that's pretty good. You're all crazy though. The 2 Jays are the only ones on the show that have any decent material. While London's delivery has gotten tired, it's still better than anybody else in the house. Even forgetting about the horrible material, nobody else has given a decent performance all season. Also, while I like Glass OK, is he blatantly stealing the woman in the crowd voice from Jim Gaffigan? Or did Gaffigan steal that from somebody?

Come on das, all you have to say is something like "I'm sexually attracted to Bonnie Hammer" then we'd all know how funny you were being.

I still find Alonzo to be the best on the show by far. I think he writes great material.

I don't like Jay at all. It sounds like he's just trying to rip off Steven Wright except that Steven Wright actually has much better material and delivery.

I wish that Todd had won the Wild Card. He was the funniest. I think people just didn't like him. I think he an annoying attention whore, but at least he has a good routine.

I think of all the comics left, Gary is the best, but I think he's only mediocore.

My wife and I won tickets to see Todd and Corey this weekend.

We still haven't seen Kathleen do anything, so it's tough to know how funny she is. John is hilarious, Gary has his moments, Alonzo isn't all that good on stage, Jay's funny the first few times you see him and....

Tammy sucks. I mean she really sucks. I once saw a guy on the subway telling jokes funnier than her repeated crap "not all italians are in the mafia..." come on.

Who was the friggen genius who got her into the final five and not Glass? How did she even get into the house? Why would someone every pay to see her? Seriously, Ant is funnier.

If the two times I've seen her live are any indication, I suspect people will be changing their tunes once Kathleen gets a chance to perform.

Like I said, it's tough to know because none of us have seen her on stage. This will certainly play to her advantage though. Most of the comics repeat jokes. For instance, we've heard Tammy's only joke 10 times. We've heard some of Gary's repeated. Jay's whole routine is almost like a carbon copy and we've seen it twice.

Kathleen has been able to get through with her entire A routine still fresh, so it will be funny. Maybe it's because the others were afraid of her, maybe because she was the brains behind the Ant-Kathleen-Tammy alliance, or maybe because she was lucky.

Kathleen has experience, that's all.

I watched her special on Comedy Central and it was sort-of-funny. She talks about a lot of innocuous stuff like Canada and figure skating. Really boring to me.

I KNOW I AM FUNNIER THAN KATHLEEN MADIGAN.

My list is very close to the above, but I can't say one way or the other about Kathleen yet. I guess we'll see very soon.

That Tammy looks Italian. Is she Sicilian?
