1) Improv Everywhere amazingly crashed a TED talk. Please watch without reading the video title.
2) The finale of this season’s Portlandia airs tonight 10PM on IFC, then followed by an extended sneak peek of Comedy Bang Bang the comedy series, which will undoubtedly be made into hundreds of .gifs only minutes after.
3) The Comedy Theory Behind Developing Jokes Battle-Jonas Polsky vs. Myq Kaplan. It’s long, but incredibly fascinating.
5) We know we’ve asked you to watch a lot of stuff already, but, seriously, watch Bob Odenkirk’s pilot for Adult Swim because, well… did you read the part where we said that it’s “Bob Odenkirk’s pilot for Adult Swim”?
6) Chris Gethard will be at SXSW giving away free, but not fancy, shit.
7) Amy Poehler is joining Adam Scott in divorced-kid-grown-up comedy.
8) Follow NTSF:SD:SUV’s production blog for Season 2 on Adult Swim because their body count is already north of 4.

13) The giant rock moving to LACMA late tonight is getting more attention than all comedy in the Greater LA Area. Keep in mind, it’s a rock.
