Please don't kill me, but I think George Carlin is a little overrated. Don't get me wrong, the man was very intelligent and funny, but he was just so damn bitter and borderline conspiracy theorist towards the end of his life.

Underrated? I like Garfunkel and Oates.

I think Jerry Seinfeld is overrated. I honestly find his comedy a tad dry.

I can't say perhaps that Dylan OBrien is under-rated since he isn't officially a comedian, but he is often funny in his roles and real life.

I hope you watched your hands after typing that! Heretic. :p

I know! I'm sorry! :sad4:

Honestly, he was an incredibly intelligent man, and his early stuff is flipping hilarious. However, the older he got, the more bitter he became; and that just clouded all of his great qualities.

Real comedy is rare now days. All comics give us is cynical, irony, and take-offs.

Steven Wright is one of those guys that flies under the radar. His comedy is brilliant, I think.
