Remember the key word is underrated.
I certainly doubt Dane Cook could qualify as underrated.
A family and friend fav is Mr.Pablo Francisco.
He's from Arizona BTW, that might help.

I don't know how underrated he is to the people on the forum, but I think Bobby Slayton is hilarious, and nobody I've mentioned him to in the "real" world knew who he was.

Pablo Francisco is a fucking hack.

My favourite underrated comic would have to be Jim Norton

I'm not sure if he's underrated, but mine is definitely Eugene Mirman. I've been to two of his shows and he's awesome.

Brian Regan. End of story.

He's been around for fifteen years, still funny as hell and sadly unrecognized by the public at large. For those who remember The Comedy Channel (which joined with HA!, another fledging all comedy network, to form Comedy Central), he was the host of Short Attention Span Theater for a while and he's done a couple of HBO specials , the best one being "Something's Wrong With The Regan Boy" which I still have on VHS.

He's got an odd delivery where he prowls the staged hunched over most of the time. I've seen him live twice and always leave in tears. LITERALLY, IN TEARS!

Comedians feel nothing but pain on the inside.

Is John Mayer tall, or is Gakakakkflflfyeiiuskis short?

Funny, I always pictured John as a short guy, but I think he just seems short.

There's a lot of Female comedians (any of them on the best females of comedy special that Comedy Central had out awihle ago qualify) that are VERY unnoticed but VERY funny, Lisa Lampanelli being one of them.

Kyle Cease (obviously) is underrated, and I really think that Ron White, despite having all these specials on Comedy Central doesn't get the attention he deserves because he's one of the funniest comedians (funniest one by FAR in that group of Blue Collar guys) I've seen in QUITE awihle.

I like Ron White but I'm ashamed to admit it because of his association with the Blue Collar BS.

Yes, I watched the new special last night (all of it except for Larry the Retardo-Guy) and thought most of them were alright. Ron White, by far was the best. I think he's only with them because he feels sorry for them. He doesn't interact with them as much as the others do with eachother.

I can't stand Lisa Lampanelli, she's shrill and annoying, and her entire act seems to be "Hey, I'm a Jewish broad, and I like fucking black guys! Ha! Nigger nigger nigger! Ha! They like me cause I've got a big ass! Ha! Nigger!"

His "movie-guy-voice" is played out, and the rest of his material is too bland, repetitive and boring.
