I was once completely enamored with the wit and talent of Mr. Crystal, but I do believe that he became completely self absorbed and self indulgent with his success.

I saw Jerry Lewis on his recent tour as he came through the Chicago area. Man, even though he was on oxygen and having trouble getting around, he still had the theater in stitches.

Ouch.
Hope he gets better.

I'm a huge Norm fan.
While his movies have been mediocre, his stand up is incredible.

I don't think he's ever going to get truly better. He's just old and has a lot of medical problems. Still one of my idols.

I also really like Norm MacDonald. Very funny for what he is. I really LOVE his movie DIRTY WORK. I used to watch his TV show where he was a former hockey player forced by the courts to work in a social workers office. Lots of funny stuff. Unfortunately his stuff is just too uneven. It's either hilarious or a dud. 50/50. That's a hard average. He put a comedy CD a few years ago. I got it and half of it is so funny I almost lose my breath laughing...the other half is overly long crap.

Since I am really into science watching a comedian like Dara O"Briain tear down pseudoscience is quite funny for me.
