From the minds of Andrew Michaan and Zed Cutsinger comes a full length pilot for Ghost Family, a show we wish would get picked up to series somewhere (though some NSFW content in it probably means it’s better suited for certain networks or streaming services than others).

In the way Childrens Hospital took on medical procedurals, Ghost Family goes to the nth degree and beyond to send up family sitcoms and we loved ridiculous minute of it.

Watch and enjoy it here (and maybe spread the word enough so it does become an actual TV show somewhere).

Neil Hamburger, America’s Funnyman, has been greasing his hair, coughing, holding too many cocktails, and roasting music for 10 years at The Satellite.

Come celebrate the decade of Neil’s residency at the end of the month with a line-up that’s already stacked and will undoubtedly get more stacked.

Get your tickets ASAP as we’re sure this show will sell out rather quickly.

As Entertainment is coming out, Gregg has decided, for the first time, to give the low down on his most notable character, Neil Hamburger.

For years, Gregg Turkington and Neil Hamburger were the same person, just in and out of character, but mention of each other by either one was virtually non-existent. Hamburger wouldn’t do interviews and Gregg really never talking about playing Neil and making a name for Neil.

Since he’s doing promotion on a movie centered on that character, he feels the need to answer any and all questions about Neil with full transparency regarding origins, intentions, death threats etc.

He answers a lot of those questions in this nterview with THR’s Seth Abramovitch.
