I am sure Russel Peters is a well known name to most people who enjoy stand up comedy. This guy is a canadian (Inidan parents), has a very mature way of creating humour based on racism etc, apart form being hillariously humourous, its quite informative, helps increase our awareness towards perceptions of people of different countires.

If you have small kids at home who can understand english then, Jeff Denham is the guy, he is a ventriloquist, (in brief  he holds a doll whose lip moments are controlled by one hand while he mimes the voice without this being explicitly noticable)

 some of their good works are on youtube and metacafe, just type their names

enjoy

Agreed.

After I watched 'AKHmed The Dead Terrorist'on youtube, I bought the DVDs of Jeff Dunham's two live shows.

And Russel Peters is all time best...He is born to Indian parents, brought up in Canada among desis of all kinds, Indians, Chinese, South Americans, Carribians...hence he can relate to all and make fun of all. A reason why he has become so popular!
