Check out the talent that started with Comic View.

Lavell Crawford - Most people may recognize Lavell Crawford as one of Saul's bodyguards from the hit series Breaking Bad. However, true comedy fans know that he was a comedian long before the series started. Lavell made appearances on Comic View throughout the '90s and 2000s and continues to perform stand-up today.

Cedric the Entertainer - Cedric also hosted Comic View for a period of time, and it's amazing to see how far he's gone in terms of his fame. It makes sense — he is, afterall, a king of comedy. (Photo: Isaac Brekken/Getty Images for Centric)
