Numbers 2 and 4 were the ones I did not know.

Number 2 is a favourite of mine (Russel Peters).......an extremely very funny guy........I like comedians that base their humour on real life situations.......he just does an exceptional job of it.

Rodney Dangerfield doesn't get any respect again!

 
Bill Cosby?
 
STEVE MARTIN??????
 
I always thought you had taste Mesh
 
Hows about:

• Spike Milligan
• Frankie Boyle
• Vic 'n Bob
• Rik Mayall
• Tommy Cooper

I wouldn't watch Chris Rock's stand up with your eyes! 
 
what about Jeff Foxworthy?

I just used list of top 10 from some website.........to be honest, I too don't care much for the slapstick humour of Steve Martin or Bill Cosby.
 
My personal list would've been only about 5-6 of those up there.
 
Sorry mate....I'll need to be more selective next time.
 

Stewart Lee
Bill Bailey
Frankie Boyle
Lee Evans
Dylan Moran
Steve Coogan
Peter Kay
Eddie Izzard

(Although I might recognize them if I saw 'em.)

In no particular order.

Richard Pryor
George Carlin
Ron White
Patrice Oneal (died last year, but he was going to be huge)
