As you can see in the byline, we had a hand in making this list happen and feel honored to do so at Vulture. 

Sure, we’re a bit biased (though we reached out to all sorts of industry folks in the know on who they thought you should watch out for and compiled a list from them-so maybe not too biased on our end?), but it’s one of the lists of comedians to watch that we think you can really rely on. 

Also, there are 21 picks we made, but, as some of them are groups or duos, it added up to 39, FYI.
