Is Chris Farley one of the greatest comedians of all time?

[Enfuego]

Watching a show on him. Pretty funny guy.

 

[DrJimmy]

No. He made one classic Movie Tommy boy and otherwise faded away too quick.

 

[jamesbong]

Super funny guy. Some of the bad movies he was in didn't do him justice. By all accounts, he would have been a great guy to meet.

One of the greatest comedians ever? No way, not enough depth in his routine. RIP.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

Not even close ... Tubby was more annoying than funny.

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

On the fence.....but when he was funny, he was very, very funny....

 

[pathologist]

Not in the ballpark of great comedians

 

[TheFalls]

I didn't think he was that funny at all.
Though he had two of the greatest snl skits of all time

Does he have much of a body of work? One good movie and a bunch of shitty ones, a couple good SNL sketches.......not exactly Norm McDonald where you can spend all day watching him on YouTube .....Farley doesn't get you past the hour...

 

[seldomseen]

He was ok. Never thought he was that funny.

Can't forget about this one:

 

[bigwang]

Absolutely hilarious and a shame he was so insecure about his weight that he used drugs and alcohol to cope. The documentary you watched and the biography about him were both outstanding.
