Any Doug Stanhope.
Be forewarned, Doug admits "I feel like I'm leading you into battle when I get on stage, because not everyone is going to be here at the end."
He's not for everyone, but he's f***in' awesome.

Anything by Brian Regan. An older performance by Dane Cook that I can't remember the name for. It was the same one used for an early Comedy Central special though. The "Harmful If Swallowed" CD comes with a DVD of Dane's pre-blowup-fame Comedy Central appearances, which I think were his best specials IMO. |

He's not for everyone, but he's f***in' awesome. I love Doug Stanhope. My suggestions: Bill Cosby - "Himself" Bert Kreischer - "Comfortably Dumb" |

Steve Harvey's "One Man", and "Still Trippin'".
"Don't Trip...He Ain't Through With Me Yet" is decent, but since he chose to keep it clean, it's not as biting as the others.
And any Lewis Black.

Bill Burr - Why Do I Do This
It really should have been an HBO Special. Unlike so many Comedy Central specials that are just a collection of random jokes (nothing wrong with that, though), this show actually had kind of an ongoing theme. It actually feels like something special. Really good...

Dave Chappelle - "Killin' Them Softly" and "For What It's Worth" Chris Rock - "Never Scared" and "Kill the Messenger" Patton Oswalt - "No Reason To Complain" and "My Weakness is Strong" Dane Cook - "Vicious Circle" (bring it  ) George Lopez - "Why You Cryin'?" and "America's Mexican" Kevin Hart "I'm A Grown Little Man." Funniest s*** ever. THIS. |

I agree with the suggestion of anything by Bill Hicks. The man was absolutely phenomenal as a comedian, and his jokes are still relevant some 20 years later.

Bob Saget's stand-up is about as funny as a 6 year old who swears up a storm because he wants to impress his older brother and be "cool". Here's a summery of his whole act: "Hey; I was the dad on Full House- now watch me swear and talk about having nasty sex with the girls who played my daughters on the show! I'm so edgy!". Ugh. |

Really? No Russell Peters fans?
Any of his DVD's is worth a watch. Especially 'Outsourced'. His improv with the crowd is outstanding.

This one is a must. Also, I'd have to recommend just about anything by Eddie Izzard. |

Kat Williams has not been mentioned so I shall now.
I like his style, it strikes me as part stand up and part motivational speaking. However I must parrot the Eddie Izzard, Brian Regan, and Dave Chappelle recommendations. Those guys always tear up a set IMO

They're not stand up comedy, but the Dean Martin Roasts are pretty damn funny.
