Morning Debriefing 3/19/11

1) Yesterday marks the last day of Morgan Murphy’s (@morgan_murphy) stint on at Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and her gradual return to the West Coast.  Be on the look out, but I’m sure you won’t have to look too hard because she’ll probably going up everywhere and still have that hair. 

2) Take your star map, if you still have it, and go burn it.  THEN, watch Bill Burr’s tour of Los Angeles.  You still see most of the same stuff, but the jokes are actually done by a highly regarded, paid professional.

3) Check out the new trailer for the Comedy Central Pilot: Set List.  Basically, “Whose Line is it Anyway?” for stand up comedy featuring Carlos Alazraqui, Eddie Pepitone, Laurie Kilmartin, Sean Green, Chris Fairbanks, and more!!!

4) The Comedy Bureau hasn’t determined who the Tip of the Hat is going to today, but assuredly, it is going to someone.  I’m sure all of you are on the edge of you seats.
