Are you not taking the piss here?
You genuinely think he's funny? Seriously?

Yes. I think he is funny, only with that character. The rest of his act is piss poor.

That is your favourite standup act?
My mind is genuinely boggling here.

Yes.
It's honest humour, he isn't trying to be sophisticated, or surreal, or offensive just for the sake of it. A lot of stand up is utter piss.
Russell Howard? Fuck off you bucktoothed cunt.
Eddie Izzard? About as amusing as a tumour.
Ross Noble? Cunt cunt cunt cunt.
Bill Bailey? Shitcunt.
etc.

Izzard was very funny in his day and Ross Noble makes more sense if you are in the crowd
I thought he was shit before seeing him live

I thought he was OK when I first saw him on TV
As you say though, seeing him live is something different altogether, he's been superb every time. Being on one of his DVDs is nice too.

Pryor only had one funny bit. Which is the one where his heart and him are having a conversation during his heart attack.

Perhaps he should have endlessly said 'I kill you' instead.
