Your Comedy Mt. Rushmore

With the passing of Tim Conway this week it got me to thinking what four faces I’d put up there. The initial three came pretty quickly: Conway, Red Skelton and Danny Kaye. But who get’s the fourth slot? Mel Brooks was a great comic writer and director but as an actor, with the exception of his 2,000 year old man sketch and occasional appearances in his own movies his front-of-the-camera schtick wasn’t that awesome. Jerry Lewis? Not my type. Carlin? Pryor? Lenny Bruce? Dave Chapelle? All good but perhaps a bit too cerebral. Hope? He became a parody of himself. Cosby? Sadly his fal has dropped him to the second tier in this discussion. Louis C. K.? Same. So I’ll leave the last face blank and wait for YOUR input. But don’t be surprised if Groucho Marx gets it.
