For once, Conan O’Brien doesn’t struggle too much with gameplay while doing his video game review show, Clueless Gamer. He just got a chance to play/review the latest installment of The Assassin’s Creed franchise in Assassin’s Creed Unity and got the hang of it.

While playing, O’Brien found that he didn’t too much assistance from Aaron Bleyaert unlike he did when trying to cross a street in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. However, Conan also found that he enjoyed the assassination part a lot, perhaps, too much.

Watch it here.

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

For all the success that Amazon has been having with their original series as of late, Comedy Central has taken note. As such, they’ve cherry picked their development executive Sarah Babineau that has developed such series as Transparent and Alpha House and are bringing her talents to foster original series for them on the East Coast.

Comedy Central already has a fantastic line-up of programming and we can only imagine that they’re going to keep headed in that direction with this move.

Paul F. Tompkins’ Speakeasy web series on Made Man continues to be our favorite way to watch intimate conversations, almost Charlie Rose-ish, but over drinks and with the spirited fun that always surrounds Paul F. Tompkins. 

So, naturally, you should be watching this latest episode with Emmy winning, rights defending comedian Sarah Silverman right now.

Keith Malley Releases His 11th Stand-Up Special “God Made Me” on Hulu

It’s rare to hear of comedians reach stand-up specials in the double digits, but Keith Malley of Keith and the Girl has just hit his 11th special with God Made Me: The Very Worst of Keith Malley.

At this point, Malley likes to take a little bit of a leap in concept for his specials, so the fun in this one is how dark Malley can go from all his material (i.e. “the very worst”). 

It was recorded live at the legendary Comedy Cellar in NYC and you can and should watch it right now on Hulu, which means you don’t need to “borrow” someone’s password).

IFC Orders Presentation of David Krumholtz’s Gigi from WeatherFrom.com

(via Deadline)

The mysterious Boca Raton, FL grandmother Gigi that gave us weather reports the best way we have ever gotten weather reports is now moving on up in the world.

IFC has officially ordered a presentation of David Krumholtz’s Gigi following her going through her bucket list. It should come as no surprise that presentation is coming from a company called Grandma’s House Entertainment.

Looks like the universe listened when we wished for Gigi to do more than just tell us the weather then a bunch of other stuff that only an old Grandma residing in Florida would tell you.

Aubrey Plaza Makes a Convincing Pitch For Us to All Watch Lifetime’s Grumpy Cat Christmas Movie
November 12, 2014
Uncategorized
aubrey plaza, grumpy cat, jimmy kimmel live, lifetime

Rather than a trailer or quotes pulled from favorable reviews from critics, Lifetime should have their marketing campaign lead by Aubrey Plaza’s explanation of Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

She can’t believe what went down with her voicing one of the most famous cats on the Internet, notes that this movie is historic, and uses the word “insane” more than once when describing working on it.

Those are pretty good selling points as far as we’re concerned. If you’re so inclined to now watch Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever, it premieres on Lifetime on Nov. 29th at 8PM.

A destination wedding that turns to a disaster with the talents of none other than Kurt Braunohler and Brooks Wheelan in the cast definitely peaks our interest. 

“The Out of Town Wedding” for writer/director Jed Rigney is exactly that and we can only hope that one of Kurt’s pranks/absurd act of stupidity as a giant outdoor public art installation works its way into the story.

Amy Poehler Brings Comedy Central’s Brooke Posch To Her Paper Kite Productions

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

Yesterday, you might have heard that Comedy Central has gotten Amazon’s Sarah Babineau to come on board to develop original series on the East Coast.

That move might have something do with the fact that Comedy Central is now losing one of their own execs in Brooke Posch to Amy Poehler’s production company, Paper Kite Productions.

Posch has worked closely with Poehler at Comedy Central, specifically on Broad City and will no doubt help bring up similarly great things via Paper Kite.

So, you can probably safely buy this for people if you’re getting a gift for them anytime during this holiday season or just get it for yourself like you know you’re going to.

Watch Trailer for Israeli Military Female Led Workplace Comedy “Zero Motivation”

It’s not often you get to hear of non-English language comedies reaching the States that go beyond being light and quirky. However, Israel’s Talya Lavie has got just such a film in “Zero Motivation” that seems like The Office set within an Israeli military HQ excepts its female led both by its cast and its director.

The Tribeca Film Festival definitely took notice of this when they gave it the award for Best Narrative Feature.

Zeitgeist Films has set it for a theatrical release in the next couple of months, but, for now, you can see what we’re talking about in Zero Motivation’s trailer.

IFC Launches Their Own Hub For Digital Content “Comedy Crib” with UCB and Above Average

Since IFC has really hit its stride over the last few years in their rebranding of their cable network towards comedy with Portlandia, Comedy Bang! Bang!, Maron, and more, they would be remiss if they didn’t have an outlet to regularly produce content online.

So, they fixed that with their new Comedy Crib, which will feature videos and series from the likes of UCB and Above Average.

One such series is Clickbait Overload where UCB challenges their very own to produce a clickbait video in 6 hours from a random topic and genre.

It’s pretty fun. Watch the first episode here and get into the rest of IFC’s Comedy Crib here.

Steve Carell’s definitely expanding his horizons with his latest film, Foxcatcher, a drama following bizarre events in the life of John E. du Pont.

As Carell is promoting it, he stopped at The Daily Show to chat with his old boss Jon Stewart and Stewart is simply flabbergasted at his performance. 

From there, the interview, much to our chagrin, turns into fun and games real quick. Watch it all here.

While on his Comedy Comisado Tour, Hannibal Buress is trying to make the most of his spare time, which, in this case, happens to be videos for Comedy Comisado TV.

Hannibal started these tour videos off with the first in a long running series,  hopefully, of restaurant reviews. Of course, the way Hannibal does restaurant reviews is the way you would hope Yelp works, but doesn’t.

Watch it here as he throws shade at Lamb’s Creek in Mansfield, PA.

AST Records has made it 3 for 3 this week for debut comedy albums from comedians that makes us bust up laughing. There has been Andy Peters’ Exclamation Mark Question Point and Paul Danke’s DANK. 

Streets of Fire, the first album from Barry Rothbart, who you’ve most certainly somewhere on late night between Conan, The Tonight Show, Ferguson, etc., got released of AST’s label and should definitely be on your list of what to listen to that isn’t Serial.

We’d say if you collected all three that you would get a novelty prize item of some sorts, but, honestly, the comedy stylings of this trio should be enough.

Yoga, former supermodel, guns, and middle-aged retirement are the subjects for Amazon’s latest comedy pilots, just announced this week.

Down Dog, Salem Rogers, Cocked, and Mad Dogs will be on Amazon for your to vote on in 2015. Names that might interest you in these pilots include Jordan Vogt-Roberts, Leslie Bibb, Steve Zahn, Sam Trammell, Paget Brewster, Andrea Savage, Kris Kristofferson, Billy Zane, Michael Imperioli, Brad Morris, Rachel Dratch, Scott Adsit, Romany Malco, and Jane Kaczmarek.

While there isn’t something perhaps as explicitly poignant as Transparent in this bunch, we’re still excited to see what Amazon has cooked up for this round.

New Line’s revival of the “Vacation” franchise already boasts a cast starring Ed Helms and Leslie Mann along with Christina Applegate, Chris Hemsworth, Charlie Day, Keegan Michael-Key, and Regina Hall. 

Now, the revitalized Griswold family will have the likes of Tim Heidecker, Nick Kroll, Kaitlin Olson, and Michael Pena joining in the fun as well.

We’re sure this will make for one long, hell of a good trailer whenever that comes out sometime next year.

We’ve made it no secret around here at The Comedy Bureau that one of our favorite things in comedy is Steven Wright chatting with Craig Ferguson. The unique weirdness of each of them melds into something special and, of course, damn funny every single time. 

Yet, as Craig is ending his run at The Late Late Show, Wright’s last conversation with Ferguson on the show happened last night and it was just as great as all the other ones they’ve had over the years.

Hopefully, what they have going on here will keep going and maybe turn into “Wright In Conversation with Ferguson” because we most certainly would obsessively watch that.

Watch Craig Ferguson and Steven Wright’s last chat on The Late Late Show here or on CBS.com here starting around 15:34.
