Morning Debriefing 7/15/11

July 15, 2011
Uncategorized
arcade basketball, burbank, cheap, comedy news, comedy shows, compatish, dan harmon, don rickles, eddie pepitone, false accusation, free, fullerton, george gallo, glendale, head to head, hollywood, joke stealing, joke thief, joke thievery, live action comic strip, long beach, los angeles, los feliz, matt champagne, midnight run, midway games, open mic, silverlake, star wars, what to do

1) Comedy Legend Don Rickles on Leno Part 1 & 2.

2) It should be obvious what measures you should take if accusing someone of joke thievery, but here’s a pretty comprehensive list on Splitsider, just in case you’re the comedy equivalent of sue-happy.

3) Yesterday, NBC’s Community Showrunner Dan Harmon had a great post about meeting George Gallo, the writer of Midnight Run and the magic of trying to do anything creative. If you haven’t already reblogged it, give it a read.

4) Best 30 Minutes or Less Podcasts from the Plop List

5) If you’re not reading the fantastic daily thoughts of Matt Champagne, perhaps start now by reading a conversation wherein Princess Leia hits on C-3PO.

C-3PO: Might I remind you, Princess, that I am a droid?
LEIA: Your excuses are so cute.
C-3PO: I am fluent in nearly all forms of verbal communication.
LEIA: Oh, I can think of one form you’re definitely not fluent in.

6) Puddin’-Touche

7) Stuff that you might have missed yesterday that we really think you should watch again: the new episode of the Compatish and Ryan Hansen “pranking” the Midnight Show.

Ryan Hansen Pranks The Midnight Show – watch more funny videos
