Two of my best friends are semi-professional stand-up comics, so I'm certainly made to watch a lot of comedy with them. Some of my favorites are:
Kristen Schaal
She's so bizarre and strangely adorable. I'm aware she's on Flight of the Conchords or something, but I never watched that - so my only knowledge of her is her stand-up and a gem for children (Striking Viking Story Pirates) called Abbey is Sile (pronounced Silly).
I also love Jeremy Hotz, because his character is entertaining to me.
Doug Stanhope is the angriest man alive, and I love him as well.
I also lovelovelove David Cross.
And of course Louis CK is a modern master, Maria Bamford makes me giggle, Mitch Hedberg was the man...lots of others.
