How was he overrated, had you heard of him before? Most people had never heard of him unless they were regular Dave Letterman watchers like myself. I, just like David Letterman found Mitch Hedberg to be one the funniest comedians ever. I don't know how anyone could watch that compilation video and not think the same. A lot of it has to do with his delivery and style, not just the jokes. Plus the jokes are like many comedians, observations of daily life, but he takes it to the level that most people never think or consider. Such as you may have seen him on a TV show, but in his mind, you more than likely have seen him in a supermarket. It's sort of like Seinfeld, he questions things that we take for granted. George Carlin did the same, who was probably my first favorite comedian.
