I Can't Possibly Rank My Favorite Female Comedians

So here they are, in no order, but a list nonetheless.


  • Since this whole notion was brought on by my recent viewing of "Bridesmaids" (why did I wait so long to see it? Why? I could have seen it, like, 10 times by now!): Kristen Wiig. So many favorite clips to choose from. But this one was a favorite for a long time. For awhile, Son would say, "Did somebody say baby?"
  • Tina Fey: Okay, this one is obvious. It's difficult to pick just one reason why she's so amazing. But this clip from SNL shows it all. She's a great writer & just funny. Also, why hasn't she made more movies with
  • Amy Poehler: Doesn't get enough credit for how crazy funny she is. But this HIGH-larious clip shows her stuff. Also, Parks & Recreation is rapidly becoming my favorite show. 
  • Maria Bamford: She's not just on Target commercials, oh no, she also refers to Target in some of her jokes. But, just watch for yourself. This is one of her jokes. 
  • Rachel Feinstein
  • Melissa McCarthy (I can't find any comedy clips). But she is SO FUNNY!
  • If we're going old school: Jane Curtain, Gilda Radner, Madeline Kahn.

There are others. I just can't remember their names.

Who have I (inadvertently) left out?
