Two of our favorite comedians to watch right now that America will hopefully know from far and wide are performing tonight on your television (and probably tomorrow on whatever device you watch YouTube on).

Rory Scovel will be back again on Conan (TBS 11PM), which is always fantastic, and the terrific Cameron Esposito will be on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (CBS 12:35AM) making her late night stand up debut.

In short, don’t miss these.

We’re really glad that Baron Vaughn got to share the perfect balance he’s struck between silliness, being very insightful, and really funny with The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson audience last night.

Watch his wonderful set on Ferguson here.

It’s great to see that The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is having more stand up featured as of late and done by really funny people as well.

Check out this latest set from Hugh Moore that aired this week as proof.

Cristela Alonzo’s Notches Another Great Late Night Set on Craig Ferguson

Honestly, we can’t figure out why CBS didn’t post the very funny Cristela Alonzo’s stand-up set from The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson this week on their official YouTube page as it was pretty great.

So watch and enjoy it, while you still can we suppose, at the link above.

Marc Maron Got To Be on Letterman and Ferguson Last Night

Go figure that the last place that would probably pick up a series like Maron, CBS, would end up having Marc Maron on both The Late Show with David Letterman and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on the same night. Still, Maron’s great talking on interviewing Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner for WTF and his recent engagement to his soon to be 3rd wife.

Watch him on Letterman here and on Ferguson here. Oh the finale of Maron is on tonight at IFC at 10PM, so you should watch that too.

A Scotch Irish Chat with Dylan Moran on Ferguson Involves Fear of Bees

Uncategorized

Craig Ferguson is a very funny Scottish comedian and Dylan Moran is a very funny Irish comedian and, apparently, when they meet on late night, they discuss the pointlessness of reading a Stephen King book. That’s a stereotype, right?

Watch the whole interview here.

Barry Rothbart Racks Up Another Late Night Set by Doing Ferguson

Not that anyone has really thought of the late night stand-up equivalent of an EGOT (someone winning an Emmy, Golden Globe, Oscar, and a Tony), but the damn funny Barry Rothbart is coming close with having done Conan, The Tonight Show, and, just last night, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Unfortunately, none of the possible acronyms for such a thing have enough vowels and are short enough to catch on.

Watch Barry’s great set from Ferguson here.

Myq Kaplan Returns to The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson

It’s good to see and hear Myq Kaplan doing stand-up once again on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson after being bumped a few weeks ago. Sometimes, guests do go too long and it’s just happenstance why we’ll have to wait to see Kaplan do another nice late night set.

Don Rickles Is Still Every Bit of Mr. Warmth on Ferguson

So, Craig Ferguson, Host of The Late Late Show, Is Putting Out a Stand-Up Special on Netflix

March 2, 2013

Uncategorized

craig ferguson, late late show, netflix, stand up special

First off, we’re thrilled to hear that hilarious person, Craig Ferguson, is releasing a stand-up special, I’m Here to Help, on Mar. 15th on Netflix.

Secondly, this is amazing, considering that no other late night host currently has put out a stand-up special in recent memory (they’re busy doing that late night tv show hosting thing, you know). Yes, we know Jimmy Fallon put out an award winning comedy album of songs, but that’s not a stand-up special.

Morning Debriefing 8/13/11

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…”)

More Tucker & Dale vs. Evil Videos

2) Futurama doesn’t have to be raised from the dead for at least 2 more seasons.

3) Tonight in late night TV comedy appearances: Jon Benjamin (yes, the one from Jon Benjamin Has a Van) is on Conan (TBS 11PM) and Don Rickles will hopefully tell a better story on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (CBS 12:35AM) than he did on Leno.

4) Matt Kirshen on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon

5) You almost have to forgive Pete Holmes as a doctor if you’re diagnosis is given like this…

The Last Pizza Commercial from Brandon Routh

7) So there’s is going to be an open mic this Friday under a floodlight in a park… Also, they’re going to use a megaphone instead of a mic, which is why it’s an “open meg”.

2) Because we don’t have the time or budget to even go down to San Diego, check out Laugh Button’s guide to comedy at Comic-Con!!!

3) Greg Proops & David Feldman go at it, interviewing each other, even after a taping of The Green Room with Paul Provenza.

4) Watch Josh Fadem go overboard on nerding out about Harry Potter on Conan.

5) If you told someone there was a comedy show on a rooftop, most would correctly assume it would probably take place in NYC, but LA’s now has it’s own rooftop comedy show, “It’s A Long Way Down”, and here’s the proof.

10) Open mics are open mics and are open for experimentation with little pressure or expectation. However, I will tell you with certainty an experiment that fails every time is shitting on the comedian that you’re following, especially if the only thing they did was told jokes that weren’t funny.

Patton Oswalt on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. I know this should have been posted earlier, but here it is now. Still, you’re welcome.

Post Brunch Update 12/17/10

1) If you love comedy in all aspects of your life, including your daily news, do not miss an opportunity to check out almost brand spanking new HahaJK.com. Bannered on the top of the site by founder Jamie Kennedy is what seems to be their motto, “News the way you want it-Funny,” which the entire Comedy Bureau staff, myself included, says HahaJk.com completely delivers on. Covering the entire U.S. News gamut (politics, money, lifestyle, sports, and so on and so forth), HahaJK.com has a plethora of a “possibly factual” stories that are made even funnier by “possibly” altering a few details such as this story about Carnie Wilson of 80’s female supergroup Wilson Phillips having incredibly difficulty maintaining her weight. HahaJK.com is just in its soft-launch phase and it already has potential to give the Onion a run for its money and certainly put the Huffington Post in its place, especially since one of the Comedy Bureau’s favorites Tony Sam is one of their head writers. So, in case you skipped right here to the end, check out HahaJK.com.

2) On the sixth night of Christmas, my true love (if I had one) went on a COMEDY CRAWL with me, well… not really. If she existed, she probably be incredibly pretentious and want to go to the Silent Movie Theatre instead, but that’s not the case so go see some damn comedy with Dead Authors @ UCB Theatre 7PM $5, Destructo @ Meltdown Comics 7:30PM $6, Adam Carolla @ Irvine Improv 8PM/10PM $30/2 drink min., Bill Burr @ Brea Improv 8PM/10PM $20/2 drink min., Jokes from the Underground @ Hollywood Improv Lab 8:30PM $5, Comedy Car Hole @ Comedy Car Hole 9PM FREE, Stood Up Friday Night @ Moving Arts Theatre 10PM $5, and We Wish You A Silly Spoofmas: A Holiday Special @ UCB Theatre MIDNIGHT $5.

3) OPEN MIC RUN: SUNSET GRILL 7439 W. Sunset Blvd., Hollywood, CA/Starts 6PM/one item min., SILVERLAKE LOUNGE 2906 W. Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles, CA (Silverlake)/Sign-up (lottery) 6:30PM/Starts 7PM, iCANDY 1708 E. Broadway, Long Beach, CA/Sign-up 6PM/Starts 7PM/$3 min., GLENDALE DAYS INN 450 N.

4) If you think that rain here transforms LA into some barren wasteland and INSIST on staying in, then you can watch Maria Bamford is on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on CBS 12:35AM.

6) Jimmy Pardo’s entire 12 hour Pardcast-a-Thon featuring a cavalcade (yeah, I like $3 words) of celebrities and funny folks is now available for download and still raising money for Smile Train, a charity dedicated to giving impoverished children in need cleft-palate surgery. They’re over $26,000 now, why not push them over $30,000?

7) Wonder what the Midwest/Dallas-Ft. Worth area thinks of LA comedienne/theWorst.tv’s Shannon Hatch? Of course you do. That’s why you’ll read this interview from Dallas based culture website Serial Optimist.

8) Several people have asked me how they can be featured on the Comedy Bureau. As the Comedy Bureau’s tries to rid the public of comedy “red-tape”, the Comedy Bureau staff maintains a strict policy of bringing the Great Los Angeles Metropolitan Area the best in the LA comedy scene straight from the trenches. Thus, all one has to do be featured here: BE ABSOLUTELY FUNNY.

9) The Comedy Bureau “Tips Its Hat” Today to CHRISTIAN DUGUAY “@christianduguay Little known fact – all 7-11s offer a murder weapon disposal service.” Christian not only writes gems on his Twitter and does stand-up in LA, but he produces several shows for MTV including Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory, an impressive feat considering many comics that get the “Tip of the Hat” seemingly spend almost their entire day tweeting/facebooking/blogging. Follow Christian on Twitter here.

10) From the “You Should Have Been There” Lagoon: Robert’s Christmas Story

11) Tonight, I’m performing, chronicling, becoming the Super Man from being the “Clark Kent” of LA Comedy at the Hollywood Improv for Jokes from the Underground. Follow me, I mean, The Comedy Bureau on Twitter for another night of comedy misadventures around LA. Also donate, too, or else I won’t get to the show… most likely…
