We know Paul F. Tompkins already has his own show, but this, along with everything else he’s doing right now, is proof he could have his own damn TV channel worth of content.
Watch Paul as Andrew Lloyd Webber interview with Aimee Mann and Ted Leo as real band, The Both, here.
1) Louie will be renewed for a third season on FX. As there’s very little pattern to the show, it has us thinking that there’s kind of no way Louis C.K. can “jump the shark” except for stopping the show or going the Twin Peaks 2nd Season route.
2) Well, if you’re question to Aziz Ansari is “Why don’t you have a red dot on your forehead?” at the Tig Notaro & Friends show at Largo, his answer will be that you’re racist, which is absolutely the correct response.
3) FX’s the League had a contingency plan in case the NFL had a lockout. Sadly, it did not involve a NTSF:SD:SUV crossover.
4) Having gotten bumped from his last spot for the show running too long, Nate Bargatze will be on Conan Tues. August 9th (TBS 11PM).
5) ALSO ON AUG. 9TH, Marc Maron’s long awaited new album “This Has To Be Funny” comes out. Circle the date again on your calendars if you have to (assuming you still use an actual paper calendar).
6) According to @TrendsLA yesterday, Brody Stevens was NOT trending on Twitter. Instead, Victoria Beckham, Channing Tatum, cuddling, and youuuu were the topics Angelenos were more interested in than Brody setting @allthingsbrody on fire. Even Patton Oswalt made a hashtag #tweetlikebrodystevens in honor of him. #WTF #getyourshitTOGETHERLA #dontcareifyouwereatarave
