who are your favorites?

Answer 1

COLUCHE - unfortunately he passed away but is still seen very often in French television. He's a real classic...

Answer 2

More than what has been written so far, i would say that you should watch the movies shooted by Albert Dupontel and the 2 stand up he made.

And, as well, the TV shows made by "les inconnus", their movies and their stand up too !!!  

Answer 3

I like :

Valérie Lemercier (my favorite).

Muriel Robin.

Pierre Palmade.

Omar et Fred.

Philippe Chevallier et Régis Laspalès.

And, for me, Les Nuls are unforgettables.
