I have said it a thousand times before, I will say it a million times again, and here I will show why I hate him so much. Will Ferrel is a talentless hack! He is the succubus of funny. Put him in a room with someone truly funny and he will make them boring. So why does this bother me so much? Because I am a huge fan of comedy and this guy is ruining the reputation of comedy. People like Will Ferrel, Sara Silverman, Larry The Cable Guy, and several others are watering this art down. They are the Wal-Mart of comedy. They cheapen the craft and lower it’s collective value. The truth is that there are tons of much more talented comedians that are being ignored because of the watered down comedy of hacks like Will Ferrel.

So below I list ten examples of comedians that should be way more mainstream than they are. I list them in order of who deserves more attention. These are the people that should have their own massive hit movies and television shows. These are the ones that should be household names. Enjoy.
