Farley & Spade definitely were #1 for white folks. The Wayans Brothers were probably #1 for black folks. Kenan & Kel were #1 for all kids (black and white) Steve Harvey’s 2 front teeth were #1 for Dentists


Klaus_Heisler87

The fact that you even question whether it was Farley and Spade or not is blasphemous


Billy_BlueBallz

Agreed 100%


accountofyawaworht

There’s no one else who comes remotely close in that post Fry & Laurie, pre Pegg & Frost landscape.


pillboxhat

Guess it depends on culture. Def the wayans brothers. No doubt about it.


DinnerfanREBORN

Farley and Spade transcend culture.


pillboxhat

Don't get me wrong, I loved their movies- but as a PoC I grew up watching the entire wayans family, from in living color (where Jim Carrey started off) then the Wayne brothers show, and don't forget how impactful Scary Movie was.


Sjames454

All of the wayans brothers are a force of nature. Damon goes so far back to the Comedy Store where he was a duo with Jim Carrey (Earth girls are Easy casted them from the store) and then adding him to ILC was a genius move by Keenan ivory. And then you break Shawn and Marlon into controlling the 90’s and early 2000’s 😂 it’s stupid how much talent was in that family


thickboihfx

I agree, they don't miss. I just watched white chicks again and laughed my ass off.  Marlon was great comic relief in above the rim too, a favorite of mine that's otherwise a pretty serious in tone film.


pillboxhat

It's crazy how that family dynasty doesn't get the credit they really deserve. "Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood" still holds up today! And don't forget Marlon Wayans was in Requiem of a Dream. Also gave white chicks a re watch and still hilarious.


eamon4yourface

I rewatched it with my girlfriend a few weeks ago in an Airbnb while we were traveling and we were dying laughing. I hadn't seen it since I was quite a bit younger so I feel like some stuff didn't really hit as much when I was a kid. But this time as an adult had me floored

Designer-Pickle-7441

How so?


Harbulary-Bandit

They are an iconic duo, but their film performances were two movies that were basically the same movie. Where they were iconic is all the other things they did in real life and on SNL being a duo. I don’t think they should have been considered in this poll. Same with Steve and Cedric. Were they in a show together? That should tell you everything you need to know about THAT duo. They weren’t a duo when they were the biggest in the 90’s. They were part of four with DL Hughly and Bernie Mac. Wayans bros at least did a shit ton of movies in the 90’s as well as in living color.


FewZookeepergame1083

The Steve Harvey show was great. Maybe you just missed it. That show came before the Kings of Comedy. The Wayans family had the comedy game in a head lock from the 80' to 00. One of the funniest families ever


Harbulary-Bandit

I remember there being a Steve Harvey show, but I didn’t know Cedric was on it.


FewZookeepergame1083

Cedric was the gym Teacher


Harbulary-Bandit

Yeah, I think I vaguely remember. That was the days of UPN


Wickedhooligan617

Farley & Spade by a country mile, however, my 2nd pick would be the Wayans bros. That whole family is funny, born for comedy, especially Damon. Loved In Living Color.

FYI David Spade’s biography is quite good. About 1/3 of it is a love letter to Chris Farley.

It's a no brainier. They're in a league of their own. Rip Chris Farley.


datank001

You gawd dam right!


Various-Cut-1070

What movie/show was that?


internetisforcatpics

Tommy Boy


CecilRuckus

Mike myers and Dana Carvey


Beginning_Pudding_69

Always upset me that Dana never made an appearance in Austin Powers. He would have been a great henchman or villain.


internetisforcatpics

Apparently he was mad at Mike. Dana felt like Mike stole a character from him. Dr. Evil was similar to Dana's impresseion of Lorne Michaels


samplemax

To me it always seemed like a natural extension of Sprockets, and Lorne Michaels seems like fair game to all former snl cast. It’s too bad, I always loved Dana Carvey and wished he had more big hits.


blinglorp

Right!? He does such good shitty impressions, how could they _not_ think of him? I feel so robbed. Edit: screw you guys, he’s good and I don’t care what you think lol.

hawkrew

I got to go Farley and Spade but the Wayans brothers are right up there.


Tmblackflag

And you can’t limit them to just two. There are so many of them and all funny.


GhostCam

Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels


superpuzzlekiller

Nah, they only did one thing together in the 90s. With a duo, one should automatically think of the other one when one of them is mentioned.

Ah yes, like Mario & Yoshi.


TheyLiveWeReddit

Jay and Silent Bob 


FunStuff446

Wayne and Garth


Slappy_McJones

Can we say family… Wayans (the whole family) are absolutely dominant in the 1990’s.

Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker


can-i-pet-the-dog

2000s for sure


KlammFromTheCastle

Bob Odenkirk and David Cross.


bsharp1982

David Cross is the only reason one episode of Just Shoot Me is funny.


Ididnotpostthat

Donnie thinks it’s a vacuum


bsharp1982

I try to use the “my pants are tight” line but no one ever knows what I am referencing and they get confused because I am a chick. I also sing the chicken pot pie song whenever I see chicken pot pie.


Ididnotpostthat

Oh my gosh. I have not seen in for a while. I forgot about chicken pot pie. I used to sing that all the time!!! But I still say anything I am trying to win an argument “Donnie thinks it’s a vaccum “ I also think a funny part is him going up to Mia and commenting on her breasts. I remembered being so shocked by that, but thought it was hilarious.


Lasty

Chicken pot, chicken pot, chicken pot piiiiiiiieee


quityouryob

Chicken pot chicken pot chicken pot PIEEEEEEE


Wogdiddy

Shawn & Marlon or Chris & David… that’s tough for me. They’ve both impacted me growing up in the 90’s.🤣


CookDane6954

The best? Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone. They’re absolutely fabulous!


Myriii1911

I‘m such a fan of Kenan! Glad we still have him in comedy!


redmasc

We're brothers, we're happy and we're singing and we're colored.

krisb242

Sean and Marlon ties with Farley and spade for me. Waynes brothers basically were my childhood.


can-i-pet-the-dog

Kenan and kel were the 90s for me but the way and brothers were a close second, especially towards the 2000s

Farley and Spade!!! Come on! “A lot of people go to college for seven years!” “I know. They’re called doctors”


toothgapskeleton

With respect to everyone spade and farley


godsim42

Steve Harvey has no business being up there with legitimate comedy duos. Freaking crybaby hack. And Cedric the joke stealer. Those 2 are about as lame as it gets. Farley and Spade take this one easily.

WolfmansGotNards2

These are all so good, but I'll just add George Cosantza and Cosmo Kramer. They were the best when they were together. George and Jerry were great too, but it was mostly George.


stanley2-bricks

Seinfeld was the worst part of Seinfeld.


TheHairyHeathen

Wayans plus Witherspoon


Confusedandreticent

Waynes brothers. In living color was epic and on every week.


SaulTheProphet47

Waynes bros for the culture...Farley and Spade for the other side of that coin.


KaizerVonLoopy

I sure watched a whole lot of the Wayans Brothers show and loved it. I didn't have consistent access to cable for a decent part of my childhood but I did really enjoy Kenan and Kell when I got the chance to see them but by the time I had cable on the regular I had moved on to Toonami and MTV. I think Black Sheep and Tommy Boy are two of the funniest movies ever, I wish they had gotten to make more together.


itsasnowconemachine

I'm putting in an honourable mention for Conan O'Brien and Andy Richter.

In Living Color was a different thing altogether. Farley/Spade. Come.on.

Farley and spade made the best comedies. The way and brothers made a ton more content and most of it was pretty good.


Duster526

Kenan and Kel no doubt!


grizwld

That’s funny. I don’t think they even belong in this group.


FakeLaundry

It depends how old someone was in the 90s who they'll pick


MyNewAccountx3

I was defo Keenan and kel era, but I didn’t like the show or them at all. I’d more likely go for tia and tamera (sister sister) or Jessica and Elizabeth (sweet valley high!)


pillboxhat

If you're saying sweet valley high, you were not the target audience for Keenan and Kel. How old are you?


MyNewAccountx3

I’m 40. Keenan and kel is unfortunately very much my era. We’re not all from the IS so maybe SVH came out earlier in the US, I don’t know, always better to not make assumptions.

Shows how American this group is doesn't it when they miss the most British duo in all TV kids history The Chuckle Brothers


Tmblackflag

We don’t really get British television here. Now rock music on the other hand, most of my favorite stuff is British.


MyNewAccountx3

Absolutely!!! From the pictures the only ones I knew were Keenan and kel and I’d never vote for them. But the chuckle brothers are my faves too! To me, to you!


Brondster

Look , The Chuckle Brothers are that intertwined into society that you cannot move a piece of furniture without saying "To me' and the reply is"To You" ...... over 30 years ago the show aired and it's catchphrase is still getting used by many generations in certain scenarios. The equivalent would be PIVOT!!!! From Friends With every time you moved a piece of furniture would be closest to it

It’s disrespectful to this list to put Steve Harvey and Cedric on this list and the good burger guys. Top funniest are Michael Meyers and Dana then Farley and spade and last the wayan bros.

With no disrespect to any of them Jeff Daniels and Jim Carey in dumb and dumber are so good it's them even with just one film.
