TCB Debriefing 12/1/23: Blair Socci, Jamie Lee/Nikki Glaser, JFL Vancouver, Chelsea Handler, Arclight/Cinerama Dome?

December 1, 2023
News

1. We’ve seen Blair Socci be a comedic force to be reckoned with (especially if you’re a fan of Triscuits) ever since we first saw her years and years ago. She just came out with her first hour special Live from the Big Dog and, we have to say, Blair is worth trying to figure out another streaming service (Veeps)

3. Jamie Lee and Nikki Glaser co-starring in a sitcom, Unsettling, where they go in on co-parenting a kid since they reached their 30s childless? Even though we’d never ever have children (don’t @ us, please), we’re on totally on board for anything Lee and Glaser do, both together or separately. (Deadline)

3. JFL is really back in full force, huh? Both Moontower JFL Austin and JFL Vancouver line-ups just had their first announcement and both are jam packed. Get tickets for the Mid-Feb festival if you’re in and around Vancouver at jflvancouver.com.

4. Chelsea Handler will return to host The Critics Choice Awards (Variety). If she gets a third go around hosting this, will that be enough holes on her awards show punch card to get another late night show?

5. We’ll leave you with this: You can uncross your fingers if you were hoping the ArcLight/Cinerama Dome in LA was going to reopen next year. Try 2025. (Deadline). It’s pretty much the last movie theater to reopen if it was indeed going to reopen.

TCB Debriefing 10/30/23: Matthew Perry, Natasha Vaynblat, Nate Bargatze, Ralph Barbosa, Plan B

October 30, 2023
News
ast records, jamie lee, jon heder, matthew perry, natasha vaynblat, nate bargatze, plan b, ralph barbosa, snl, we're all dads here

1. You probably already know, but R.I.P. Matthew Perry. May you revel in the moment in time that Chandler and Monica revealing their relationship sent reverberations across pop culture and delve into the wide swath of Perry’s filmography in the coming days and weeks.

2. Though the year 2023 is coming to a close, the procession of marvelous debut albums isn’t over quite yet. In fact, both AST Records and Good Delivery, a stalwart NYC stand-up show, aren’t done yet either since they just released Good Delivery co-host’s James Hamilton’s fantastic debut album I Don’t Deserve These Deals and then, came out with We’re All Dads Here, the debut album of Natasha Vaynblat, yet another Good Delivery co-host just a few days ago. Vaynblat makes good on the Good Delivery name is there is the rhythm and cadence are smoothly poised. Yet, she beautifully contrasts that with letting her whimsy and imagination run amok (i.e. espousing the virtues of everyone wanting to be dads, butts being mouths, etc.). The cheeky absurdity that Vaynblat wheels and deals in is only heightened by her never breaking for even a second (being kinda Russian helps, we bet). Kinda Russian or not, Vaynblat’s debut album signals many more great bits and misdirects (and album covers) to come from Natasha in the not so distant future. Please enjoy We’re All Dads Here wherever you get your comedy albums.

3. Nate Bargatze is the master of being a man constantly in the comedically wrong part of spacetime. Bargatze continues with this theme in a water tight, but, per Nate’s signature low key style, set for his SNL opening monologue this past Saturday.

4. Dallas’s very own Ralph Barbosa is about to debut in 100 and however many territories Netflix covers these days as his very first special Cowabunga is releasing at midnight PST tonight.

5. After years behind the camera that led to winning an Emmy via Ted Lasso, Jamie Lee thankfully returns to a starring role alongside Jon Heder in Plan B, a rom com that mixes and matches baby daddys and one-night stands (Deadline).

6. We’ll leave you with this: What about an alternative history dramedy where Lorne Michaels retired from SNL 15 years ago and the show got to be reborn in a blaze of glory?

Pick of Day: In Stitches-Hydrocephalus Association Benefit 11/19

November 18, 2020

One of the biggest benefit shows this week is dedicated to raising money in the fight for the deadly condition known as Hydrocephalus via the Hydrocephalus Association. The condition is caused by build-up of fluid in the brain and can currently only treated by brain surgery.

Annually, the Hydrocephalus Association puts on a big benefit show, In Stitches, and they’ve really outdone themselves this year with this 2020 virtual edition. For comedy, Whitney Cummings, Kurt Braunohler, Chris Estrada, Jamie Lee, Dan Levy and Esther Povitsky are on the bill, but there will also be a special musical performance from Natasha Bedingfield as well as some cameos from Debbie Allen, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Max Greenfield, Neil Patrick Harris, Rachael Harris, Nigel Lythgoe, Wayne Brady, Sebastian Maniscalco, and Meghan Trainor.

That’s bordering on a mini-festival line-up and should make for a pretty swell Thursday evening this week.

In Stitches is virtually set for Thurs. Nov. 19th at 6PM PT/9PM ET. Tickets for the live-stream start at $50. There will also be a silent auction and a virtual red carpet starting at 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET.

It’s pretty clear as far as we can see: many of the best comedians in town will gather for an all female June every Friday at Sauce @ DeSano Pizza for the cleverly coined Pizza Coven.

Just like at that exquisite line-up that includes many of our personal favorites, folks who have been killing it on TV for years, legitimate nationally touring headliners, and more over the next four weeks and you’ll know that your Fridays should be spent at one of the best pizza joints in LA.

So, reserve your tickets here for a Pizza Coven already.

Jamie Lee Developing Subversive Rom Com ‘The Girlfriend’ Over at Freeform

Jamie Lee Developing Subversive Rom Com ‘The Girlfriend’ Over at Freeform

The romantic comedy genre is beginning to get turned inside out these days and we’re on board for it. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend has gained acclaim from the get-go by re-examining gender roles and stereotypes to catchy songs from every genre and there’s a feminist answer to Kevin Can Wait called Kevin Can F*** Himself in the works at AMC.

To add to that, the whipsmart Jamie Lee is now writing her own unique, dark rom com that follows the girlfriend of a husband who is the prime suspect in his wife’s disappearance (kind of like Emily Ratajkowski in Gone Girl, right?). Seeing this sort of woman’s story beyond her being a usually one-dimensional character along with Lee’s impeccable comedic writing will undoubtedly be fascinating. 

So, we hope this gets a greenlight at Freeform.

Please Enjoy Jamie Lee from Last Night’s Corden

As her new album I Mean… proved, the comedy of Jamie Lee is a fabulous combination of clever writing, deft observation and timing, and colorful performance.

Do yourself a favor and enjoy more of that with her latest late night set here.

Please Get and Enjoy Jamie Lee’s First Album “I Mean…”

Jamie Lee has been, in our opinion, prime to release an album quite for some time. So, with that in mind, you’re getting a great collection of Jamie’s best over the last several years, which are seamlessly stitched together on “I Mean…”.

Jamie has a great eye and ear for detail in her life for her comedy and also has a deft talent for wordplay and metaphor that are quite enjoyable. Also, Jamie will occasionally flaunt a sort-of syncopated timing on some of our favorite jokes from her that highlight how great Jamie is at crafting her brand of humor.

You can hear all of that on her very first album “I Mean…” fresh off the presses from AST Records. Get it on Apple Music here.

Jamie Lee got to perform the first stand up set in all of late night this year and absolutely did not disappoint. 

She was on last night’s Late Late Show with James Corden and you can see why, regardless of anything else happening in 2016, that Jamie and stand up comedy have started off this year quite nicely.

TruTV Orders Shows with Jamie Lee, April Richardson & Chris Fairbanks, and a Comedy Film Docu-Series and Pilots from Jon Glaser and Naomi Ekperigin

(via Deadline)

We like where TruTV is going with this comedy thing.

Since they rebranded as a comedy network from playing Court TV a lot, TruTV has come a long way in, we think, the right direction. With Those Who Can’t from The Grawlix ready to come out next year, this latest announcement of their new series and pilot orders with people we think are really funny is even more exciting.

First off, Jamie Lee will be hosting 10 Things, a comedic countdown/breakdown of ‘out there’ topics. Then, Almost Genius will look into people that live up to the show’s title and will be hosted by April Richardson and Chris Fairbanks. On top of that, truOriginals: Inside Iconic Comedy will explore the story of the funniest films in the cinematic canon.

For pilots, they have Jon Glaser Loves Gear where the one and only Jon Glaser obsesses over outdoor gear and Naomi Ekperigin hosting Inside Caucasia where she dissects what white people like doing from the perspective of a black woman.

We can’t wait to see all of this soon.

4) The march for the Onion getting a Pulitzer via their own grassroots organization AFAJP continues with the celebrity backing of Arianna Huffington, Tom Hanks, and Mario Batali. I wonder what Literally Unbelievable will makes of this.
