Morning Debriefing 8/8/11

comedy news, cornell reid, los angeles, paul danke, sean green, the moth

1) The Down Syndrome’s Association of the UK finds Doug Stanhope offensive. The fact it took the DSA so long to find and be offended by a clip of Stanhope ranting on Sarah Palin and her child with Down’s Syndrome, a clip that’s been online for almost 3 years not to mention Stanhope’s reputation for going dark with jokes about abortion, denouncing AA, etc., really undercuts their public outcry. 

2) Weird Al Yankovic will officially have a televised concert special on Comedy Central to air on Oct. 1st and available for purchase on DVD/Blu-Ray Oct. 4th.

3) Neil Hamburger and his Britney Spears Haikus; in case you needed clarification, Hamburger is winning the war online against Spears’ fans.

4) The Comedy Garage Movie is on Hulu! Don’t forget to catch them at the UCB this Sat. Aug. 13th at 10PM $10.

5) Laughspin interviews one of the fastest and funniest mouths in the West, Jimmy Pardo.

We watched THE SMURFS with special guest Paul F. Tompkins

This is one of my favorite episodes, even though the sound quality is slightly muddled because June and Jason are in NYC. The Smurfs is a kids movie for adults about things like not wanting to be a father and the harsh business of advertising. Exactly what kids want to see.

8) An article we wrote for the Nerdist on how SEO has possibly ruined comedy is according to “Matt” is “…a boring, pointless, empty article,” further adding, “Nothing worse than a comedy critic. Get a job.” Apparently, he liked the Les Misérables parody of Jay-Z’s & Alicia Keys’ “Empire State of Mind”. To each his own.

9) Fuck yeah Down’s Syndrome Association of the UK, you bet Doug Stanhope isn’t going to apologize for his rant against Sarah Palin and her DS baby (another piece we wrote yesterday for Laughspin).

brooks wheelan, cheap, comedy news, comedy shows, culver city, free, girlfriend, hollywood, los angeles, open mic, roommate, santa monica, tmz, west hollywood, what to do

1) Lopez Tonight will air it’s last episode on Thursday, which is incredibly unfortunate considering comedians like James Adomian and Brent Weinbach their late night TV debuts. Don’t miss an appearance tonight with David Koechner and tomorrow night in the final episode as Auggie Smith is scheduled to do a stand-up set (TBS 12AM).

2) Brody Stevens/@allthingsbrody was REALLY arrested outside of a Starbucks, but is now released. Whatever your opinion of Brody is, reading his Twitter feed is a must.

3) Hampton Yount is absolutely hilarious. No set up required here, just watch.

4) Steve Carell feels out what it would be like to be on Conan while being on Conan.

5) Reportedly, Bill Burr dropped in at Big Fish last night, a room known for people heckling you because he’s working on a set. If you’re a comedian in LA (or NY), think about that the next time you question why you’re wasting hours of your time waiting to go up at a room that you’re not a big fan of.

6) TONIGHT ON LATE NIGHT TV: Tig Notaro will on be on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (NBC 12:35AM) and Aziz Ansari will be on Conan (TBS 11PM)

7) Doug Stanhope’s episode of Louie will air tomorrow, which will be interesting considering Stanhope has said that Louis C.K. cast him in a role where Stanhope can just be himself (FX 10:30PM).

8) ON THE HORIZON

1) Nate Bargatze on Conan and Tig Notaro on Late Night Jimmy Fallon.

2) On the final episode of Lopez Tonight, Auggie Smith will not be making a well deserved appearance.  Instead you can watch him at the Comedy Palace or if you insist on staying at home you can watch something else like the 2 slated episodes of Louie, one of which features Doug Stanhope (FX 10:30PM), Paul Scheer being on both Children’s Hospital and NTSF:SD:SUV (Adult Swim 12AM/12:15AM), and the Green Room with Paul Provenza featuring Richard Lewis, Kumail Nanjiani, and more (Showtime 11PM).

3) Was Aziz Ansari in the Zookeeper?

4) Anthony Jeselnik signs development deal with Comedy Central.

5) Connected Comedy gives advice on how to promote live comedy shows.

6) Ben Stiller’s Red Hour is going to make a series of fake trailers.

7) Huffington Post made a list of comedians that could replace the slot that George Lopez will vacate tonight. Our first thought: You’re damn right Paul F. Tompkins is on there.  Also, glad that Reggie Watts, Jimmy Pardo, Marc Maron, Andy Richter, Julie Klausner, and more are included.

8) So, Brody Stevens/@allthingsbrody hasn’t had something tweeted or retweeted in his feed for almost an entire day, right around when this Laughspin article we wrote about Brody was posted.

9) Chuck Klosterman’s piece on Louie for Grantland makes ours for Laughspin look like a “nice try”.

10) Nick Kroll interviews Always Sunny in Philadelphia’s Rob McElhenney about getting fat for the show.

11) Stephen Colbert sets a new standard for political ads. [via Splitsider]

1) The hilarious Auggie Smith got bumped from his stand-up appearance on Lopez Tonight not by Russell Peters, not by Arsenio Hall, or George Lopez himself, all experienced comedians, on the final episode of Lopez Tonight, but by Metta World Peace (Ron Artest). Start at 6:20.

3) Kyle Mooney (of Good Neighbor) gets hired by Jimmy Kimmel Live.

4) The Compatish goes a live AND does impressions of anyone to Christopher Walken all the way to Paul Danke.

5) Erin Gibson and Bryan Safi get to the bottom of Michelle Bachmann’s infamous Newsweek photoshoot.

1) The Nerdist TV Special will air on BBC America Sat. Sept. 24th 10PM. Of course, they couldn’t just let a Yank be on the BBC by himself…

 

2) Henry Phillips makes “french toast” and it’s amazing. 

3) Paul Danke’s takes us down memory lane/the Back 2 School aisle.

4) Marc Maron picks his five comics to watch, which is vastly different from Variety’s Top 10 Comics to Watch.

5) Though some of this might seem obvious, apparently, it’s not; Connected Comedy tells comedians what not to do on Facebook.

6) Wonder what an elite improv class is like? Take an inside look into Matt Besser’s Master Class… (this is where you’re supposed to say “yes and…”)
