Morning Debriefing 12/3/11

1) You can say tweets and short quips and more AND have people what your voice, which you probably hate, really sounds like? Eardrop (from Earwolf) has arrived for just to answer that question.

2) Now that there’s a little more warning, we know that Wendy Liebman’s Showtime special “Taller on TV” will be re-airing at 3:30AM on Showtime throughout this month.

3) Dan Harmon’s thoughts on Community being voted TV Guide’s fan favorite before NBC tabled the show midseason.

3) London and the Soho Theatre is loving the improvised stand-up show Set List and we sure do miss them here.

4) If you’ve ever wondered about watching an entire episode of the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson instead of the clips of interviews and stand-up and if it’s hip or not, read the A.V. Club’s take, then have your own opinion for once.

5) LA Weekly covers Women! Comedy! Festival! at Room 101.

6) For those looking for who like our calendars on “the bleaker tip”, there’s a hilariously dark one called “Death on the Mountain” by Abbey Luck depicting bizarre tragedies year round. The perfect gift for someone who just watched Melancholia and liked it (Yes, that’s us). [via Annie Lederman]
