10 comedians who deserve a Netflix special ASAP
Jon Dore
Jon Dore is no exception to the hilarious Canadian rule. While living in Canada, Jon had his own television show called The Jon Dore Show, which was a massive hit. However, Jon has lived in America since 2008 and has been a hit south of the border. He’s been on How I Met Your Mother, Those Who Can’t, and a ton of Conan episodes.
Jon Dore is one of the riskiest comedians out there. I don’t mean risky as in slightly racist or on the line of misogynistic. No, I mean he takes risks while performing. He once did a late night set where for five minutes, a joke involved a drawing on his chest.
His braveness is in his silliness. Jon’s first Conan appearance was a sight to behold. Since then, he’s appeared on the show multiple times, each time pushing the boundaries of late-night further. He’s incredibly playful on stage. It’s not as if stand-up has rules, yet Jon seems to be able to break these nonexistent rules. For Jon sometimes the punch line is that there is no punch line.
Bonus points: Jon is pretty sexy. We could watch an hour of Jon doing anything. He looks like he chops a lot of firewood, just saying.
