It was awesome hearing Stephen Hawking deliver such a savage burn. Honestly, the computerized voice just maked it hit harder.

Mark's burn on Josh was one of the most savage and funniest moments I've ever seen. I feel it should have ranked higher.

[benkesser]

The no1 comeback of all times is Norm's "chairman of the bored". if you had edited it correctly it would show. the Reynolds clip is not a comeback, it's a very classic feud.
Also the Ruffalo comeback is one of the most savage ones, so it should rank higher.

Conan actually challenged McDonald once the title was revealed: "Do something with that, you freak." You also cut out his laughter after using the dictionary.

[anselmareich]

Stephen Hawking really took no prisoners XD

[connieoshea]

What’s missing from this list is Bollywood actress, Aishwarya Rai, appearing on David Letterman in 2003. The entire interview is literally one big comeback between the two. I recommend that people seriously go check it out. Oh, and for anyone who’s from the UK, who can forget Meg Ryan’s infamous appearance on Parkinson.

#9 was so hilarious! He is the main reason why I miss him so much🥺🧠

[patriciadavis]

I'll be honest. I am a subscriber but some of your stuff gets on my nerves but I have to say this is freakin hilarious thank you.❤❤❤❤❤

[sylasDC]

The number one that you have I wonder if they really did run out of time or if it was just going to get so much more crazy that they just wanted to end it NOW😂

[jaytheokie]

I think the funniest thing on this list is saying someone who is devoid of genuine humor like Kimmel has “juggernaut ratings.” Conan is the king.

[waittillfamewtf]

I can hear you but I won't...
Some look for trouble...
While others don't...
There's a thousand reasons...
I should go about my day...
And ignore your whisper...
Which I wish could go away...

[carlosfagar]

I wish MsMojo included RuPaul vs Joy Behar's Got take it from somebody and
Joan River and Betty White

[TheAccidentalViking]

Oh, they didn't have 'The Last Leg' on this. MsMojo really needs to check it out.

[justineves]

Very very great lol funny fun list I like it a lot very very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 😊❤

[johnanderson]

I knew about almost all of these, but that last one was really unfamiliar.

[patriciadavis]

I love jay leno he is the best❤❤❤❤ I'm buzz So I can't remember if his new show is you bet your life. Yes that's what it is. I love it the 1st season with OK the 2nd season. They've streamlined It better.

[jamesclark]

The Mark Ruffalo comment seems more mean than funny...

[lindamims]

Me wishing everyone a star 🌟 awesome day
