Favorite/Least Favorite Comedians?

You have the same tastes in comedy that I do. Do yourself a favor and check out Daniel Tosh.
Why is Denis Leary famous and Bill Hicks isn't?
Because there's no cure for cancer.
Denis Leary is 10x better as a Writer, Rescue Me is probably one of the best cable shows on right now.
I have so many favorites, here are some I like:
George Carlin
Mitch Hedberg
Patton Oswalt
Norm Macdonald
Jim Gaffigan
Bill Hicks
Zach Galifianakis
Several comedic/improv actors as well (Steve Carrel, Stephen Colbert, Kids In The Hall, Rowan Atkinson, Monty Python)
I don't like:
Dane Cook (liked him at first, but got bored with his routine)
Carlos Mencia
Joe Rogan (worries too much about plagiarism in comedy instead of being a comedian)
Many comics that air on TV in Canada

The comic you're thinking of is Jim Gaffigan. I like him, but I admit, his hotpockets bit isn't too good. Sometimes he'll do the hotpocket thing for a couple minutes (good) sometimes for beyond 10 minutes (not good).
Doug Stanhope rules right now, his "No Refunds" show that's on TV and DVD right now is amazing! Also like;
George Carlin
Billy Connelly
Eddie Murphy (Delirious is classic)
Richard Pryor (maybe the best all-time)
early Martin Lawrence (before the "Martin" show)
Lewis Black
don't like;
The Cable Guy
The "you know your a red-neck" guy
Mencia
