Favorite Last Comic Standing Contestants (Season 7)

Felipe is my favorite comedian because I can relate to his jokes. They remind me of my family's quirks, and I especially enjoy a comedian who can make fun of Mexican stereotypes or inequalities about Mexicans living in America.

He delivered  one of my favorite jokes on July 19, 2010. Felipe talked about a Mexican haunted house: it cost $20 to go in and $30 to get out. He then described how Mexican gangsters were around every corner threatening to beat you up. He walked out with a black eye while his girlfriend walked out with a bunch of hickeys and cold sore on her mouth. Another favorite joke was shared on July 12, 2010: a commentary on how Mexican women are always bigger than white women. I suggest watching that episode to get the full entertainment value.

Felipe has comedy talents that rival George Lopez. He even has a signature entrance: "Hello, how are doing? (no pause) Ok, good." I really hope you win Season 7, Felipe! 

Initially, Roy Wood Jr. was not one of my favorite comics. I had trouble relating to his jokes, and many were either hitting hard or drastically missing their punch lines. On July 19, 2010, Roy shot up to my second favorite comedic.

As a recent graduate, I really appreciate school humor. So, when he was talking about not paying off loans despite the fact that he's 31 years old, I knew I would be laughing a lot. Luckily, Roy didn't disappoint. From his jokes about not remembering his education to his insistence on only paying for the loans based on the grades received, I was cracking up. It was his strongest lineup yet, and I hope he continues to be that funny in later episodes.

Jonathan truly embodies the ideas expressed in Henry Phillip's song "On the Shoulder of Freaks." He is the strangest, quirkiest, and funniest comedic the American public has seen in a long time. The fact that he's the oldest comedian in the Top 10 also endears him to the audience. He has a character that he never drops--a man who is a little slow, confused, and innocently funny. Jonathan delivers jokes only he can pull off (they would fall flat with other comedians). Plus, who else can be surprisingly gross and insulting while still acting lovable?

One of my favorite jokes was from July 12, 2010 when he told the audience he wanted to do a ventriloquist act. He then began to take off his sock, put it on his hand, and held the microphone to his bare foot. Hilarious!

Mike is both intimidating and funny. He is your typical Italian Catholic, or maybe I should say atypical...? I'm not always sure if I should be insulted by his jokes, or if I should laugh. 90% of the time I end up laughing. This is the type of guy that you would not want to meet in a dark alley because he would probably beat you senseless. Mike is a bit too serious when presenting his jokes, but it's all part of his "tough guy" comedian act. 

My favorite joke was delivered on July 12, 2010 when he commented that the scariest person in the world is an old Italian grandma. Then, he regaled the audience with all the things his own grandmother said that scared some sense into him. It was too funny for words!
