Anybody new that's decent? I've been outta the game for a few years now. The last few people that were getting mainstream press were: Carlos Mencia, Dane Cook, The Blue Collar Guys, Demetri Martin, and Daniel Tosh.

Mencia, Cook, and Larry the Cable Guy were under scrutiny for being material stealing hacks. The remaining Blue Collar Guys were too gimmicky. And Demetri Martin was just Mitch Hedberg with pictures and the whole being alive thing.

I like Daniel Tosh. I'm thinking stand up is a dying art (or perhaps an evolving one). No one impresses me as of late. There's no real headliners like there used to be though.

^^ Are you kidding? Aside from the fact that he had his own show and a pair of specials, he went to NC State.

and not only did he have his own show, but it was one of the greatest late night shows in television history
