>>
>>221163562
yes, exactly, thank you
>>
I still think Anna Faris is the only funny woman, but mostly because she's great at being a total ditz, I don't know much else about her acting career though.
>>
There are plenty of funny women, just much less per capita than men
>>
no one compares to Lucille Ball
>>
Joan rivers is the funniest woman
>>
>>221163443
She is so hot in a librarian kinda way.
>>
Nah, Joan Rivers is though.
>>
Norm Macdonald occasionally cited Elaine Stritch as an exception to the rule.
>>
>>221163443
Women, being socially motivated, shine comedically as members of a writing team, improv group, sketch entourage.
That's a big part of why Tina Fey and Amy Pohler make me laugh and almost all female stand ups make me feel like I'm being flayed alive.
(Early Sarah Silverman is an exception, but I yhink she might have been stealing some of that material, and she was also performing for her stand up pals in the audience which makes a big difference.

>>221163443
Joan Rivers
*massive timeline gap*
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are the only funny females that I grew up with.

Honorable mention to Natasha Leggero who never really made it big. But her Hot Tubbin' with Tash show on youtube is hilarious.
>>
A woman directed the Paul Allen card scene, and that's one of the funniest scenes in any movie
>>
>>221164107
No she isnt
>>

Catherine O'Hara
Teri Garr
Olivia Colman
Kaitlin Olson

Women in comedy are always coming and going and going and coming and always too soon.
>>
>>221164675
This. People just forget about her cause she's dead and because of all the plastic surgery
>>
>>221163562
She has her moments. Usually better when she's doing subtle delivery.
I was reading about her the other day actually because I was watching Muppets most wanted with relatives. When she was a kid some asshole walked by and slashed her face with a knife when she was playing in her front yard. For no fucking reason. (Not that where would be a valid reason to slash a child) Anyway, that's why she has the scars.

>Amy Poehler
Parks and Rec was the least funny she's ever been. UCB/Wet Hot American Summer/Andy Richter's teenage sister on Conan poehler was funny as shit.
>>
>>221163443
no
after 30 rock she went all woke and wholesome
>>
>>221167239
She was playing the straight man in parks and rec.
>>
>>221163551
Really? Do Americans really?
>>
>>221167239
Poehler was funny in that Tina Fey movie "Baby Momma".
>>
>>221163443
elyse willems is genuinely funny
>>
>>221163550
she really needs to stick to writing. anything she appears in she's terrible.
>>
For me it's Amy Sedaris. Damn that family is talented, y'all
>>
>>221167617
this. strangers with candy is one of the funniest shows ever. incredibly well-paced. every scene chock full of jokes.
>>
>>221167617
Amy Sedaris and Kerri Kenney from The State and Reno 911 are always my go to answers for actual funny women

>>221163443
only funny women standups were the ones who played up their white trash crashness in the 90s like Roseanne and Brett Butler

>>221166688
Shes Greek.
>>
>>221163443
I like Taylor Tomlison and her extremely round face.
>>
Iliza Shlesinger and Nikki Glaser had some good sets and roasts.
Poehler and Fey were good showrunners/writers.
Plenty others who have good comedic timing, though no idea how much input they had in the character.
>>
>>221164107
No she's funny AND hot
