Louis C.K. is brilliant. Chappelle for about 7-8 years from the late-1990s to mid-2000s could pretty much do no wrong, too. The Clayton Bigsby sketch from the first epsiode of Chappelle's Show was one of the most amazing things I've seen on television.

Maybe not new, but here are a couple favorites of mine that I don't think are too well known yet.

Costaki Economopoulos - YouTube - Costaki Economopoulos
Drew Hastings - YouTube - Preview of Drew Hastings One Hour Special airing April 26th.

Not what I'd call new, but a few other favorites that I don't think get enough attention/recognition here in the US.

Eddie Izzard - YouTube - Eddie Izzard's Encore on Computers
Jimmy Carr - YouTube - jimmy carr adverts

Most of the ones in the NT linked thread are great suggestions too.

Thanks for your suggestions and the ones in the linked thread. I am going to go watch them on Youtube and then come up with some names for a poll. Interesting points brought up in that thread about which people appeal to what type.
