While everyone has their own personal opinion I have taken the liberty to make a top 3 list of the best comedians of the past year. I am basing my judgement on relevance and the hustle of the comedian. Comedians that are hilarious but sitting at their couch at home will not be on this list.
Take a look and judge for yourself if it's accurate or if I am just a crazy person. Also take a look at my video tab as you will see clips of each these comedians.
1. Chris D'elia
This comedian has had an outstanding year and ever since the app Vine came out this fellow has gained MANY more fans world wide. He has a style like no other comedian and every time he goes on stage he brings a totally different (and hilarious) performance. Chris D'elia is the type of comedian to go on stage with just an idea and improv most of his set. He has proven to the world how funny he is and I guarantee that he will only become better and more popular in the next decade.
2. Louis C.K
If I had to describe Louis C.K in one word that word would be genius. Not genius like Albert Einstein or Steve Jobs but more like a genius at articulating the world we live in so perfectly. When he goes on stage his material makes a point, sometimes its serious and sometimes it's just plain silly. None the less, Louis C.K has released an hour long special the past three years in a row and all of them have been hilarious. There is no doubt that one day Louis will be in the conversation among comedy legends such as George Carlin, Dave Chappelle etc.
3 Kevin Hart
Last but not least Mr. Kevin Hart. The man has been fiercely selling out arenas across North America and this cannot be ignored which is why he made my top 3 list. Kevin Hart can somehow relate to his fans by telling stories about hanging out with famous celebrities. He is personable, edgy and he knows how to put on a show. Not to mention a hilarious actor Kevin Hart has been a strong force in the comedy world.
Well there it is folks. These are the stand-up comedians that have taken over in 2013.

Saying Goodbye to The Simpsons
It's kind of tough to write a piece on a TV show that has been on this earth longer than I have been breathing. The Simpsons has been around since 1989!
It has yet to be confirmed officially, however, there has been a lot of speculation that this will in fact be the last season ever for the Simpson family. Some people might react to this news and be shocked that the show is still on the air, others may react a little differently... I literally saw someone tear up. However you take the news it is amazing that a TV series has been able to go this long. It really has made the impossible, possible.
Not only is it impressive that the show has been on for so long but how about the wide demographic of fans. Fans can be as young as a 3 year old just interested in the bright colors or the old person who enjoys it because of the references that they can understand. The Simpsons is a show that everyone can watch and relate to at some level, which is every writers dream to accomplish.
The writers of the show seem to want to spice things up as they say farewell. If you didn't hear I hate to be the one to tell you but apparently one of the main characters in The Simpsons will die in the last season! It's sad to hear that and it's also sad that this effects me so deeply. I mean who can the writers kill, not Homer, not Bart, not Maggie!
The Simpsons is a classic show and will be forever apart of pop culture. It has made it's mark on all of it's fans and inspired many other shows that are currently higher in ratings.

Jimmy Fallon to Replace Jay Leno on 'The Tonight Show'
We have all heard the saying before "All good things must come to an end". Well in this case this "good thing" lasted a very, very long time. Jay Leno has been host of The Tonight Show for about twenty years! And while Leno has been excellent, I think the vast majority of viewers are ready for a change.
A few months back NBC announced that Jimmy Fallon would be taking the torch of The Tonight Show, one of the longest running shows in history (its kind of a big deal by the way). As many already know Jimmy is a Saturday Night Live Alumni and in general a talented man. He has proved to be a great host on his current show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. His show has been doing well in ratings and staying very competitive in the late night race against other hosts such as Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Kimmel.
From singing with the President of the United States and becoming BFF's with Justin Bieber it's safe to say that Jimmy Fallon is well known in Pop Culture today. I for one am excited to see this new change in a legendary show. Jimmy is scheduled to host the first show in February 2014, the week after the Olympics finish.
By the way check out just how funny Jimmy Fallon is in this hilarious sketch parody of Breaking Bad that was aired on his show that aired on his show this week.
