I've seen some sentences with an and after a comma, and some with not.
Here's a couple of examples of what I have seen. But which is correct?
A - My favourite films are 'Goodfellas', 'Apocalypse Now', and 'Raging Bull'.
B - My favourite films are 'Goodfellas', 'Apocalypse Now', and 'Raging Bull'.
+
A. My brother, my cousin and my uncle, all came with me to Ibiza last year.
B. My brother, my cousin, and my uncle, all came with me to Ibiza last year.
And can you give me some examples when to use a comma, and when not to use it.
Thanks. ;-)

"and" is not preceded by a comma, usually.....unless there is a need for very strong stress before. Twirls etc are right on this.
gen2 is also right; that is one one of those exceptions where stress comes into play.
So is boxtops, all a bit of a yawn re the repetition. Why don't you buy a good grammar book and spare us the agony?
