If anyone DARES to desecrate the name of Bill Hicks, they deserve to be struck by lightning. Bill Hicks is a legend of stand-up and a pioneer for humorist severywhere.D-Ballz said:
The closest person I can think of to Bill Hicks is Berndon Burns, who's a funny bastard and a bit too full on for most people, but he speaks the truth.
I rarely watch stand-up. Or most comedies.
I've only seen two: Jeff Dunham because I was wasting time with my dad and... some comedian whom I have no clue his nme is.

I've got a ton, Tim Hawkins, Jim Gaffigan, George Carlin, Mike Birbiglia, Jeff Dunham(Who, coincidentally, I'm distantly related to), Russell Peters, Eddie Izzard, Daniel Tosh, Dane Cook before he became a douche, just a few of many.
Ricky Gervais, Johnny Vegas, Reginald D. Hunter, Michael McIntyre, Sean Lock, Frankie Boyle, etc.
The BBC's 'Live at the Apollo' is really good for showcasing up-and-coming standup comics (as well as some well known ones), so you could always watch that (as well as the spin-off-ish 'Comedy Roadshows').

The only comedians I really like are George Carlin, Demetri Martin, Gabriel Iglesias, Dane Cook and Bo Burnham. I do remember finding Emo Phillips pretty funny, but I haven't really seen much of his stuff.
Jeff Dunham is good too... for about 5 minutes after watching one of his specials. He got old pretty fast. Every time I hear someone quote Achmed the Dead Terrorist, I just wanna shoot myself. (It's always the same line, too.) At this point they're just beating a dead horse... with another dead horse.
