Pretty, Pretty Pony is and has been, hands down, one of our favorite improv groups amidst the ever-multiplying number of improv teams in and throughout LA. You should always catch their monthly residency where they do improv based off of a monologist’s stories at the Westside Comedy Theater for their high-level, yet subversive long form improv done exquisitely by a cast of Cole Stratton, Joey Greer, Vanessa Ragland, Ed Roe, Atul Singh, Chris Alvarado.

This edition of Pretty, Pretty Pony is especially special as their guest monologist is none other than David X. Cohen who has brought us one of the more fun visions of the future with Futurama. Undoubtedly, his stories of his own past ought to be something pretty special too.

Tickets are only $6 and you can (and should) get them here.

SyFy to Have Futurama Reruns Next Month

In November, episodes of Matt Groening’s Futurama will air on SyFy, which is a fitting home for the show.

Maybe, down the road, Futurama will once again be revived in this new home for new episodes. It wouldn’t be surprising at all if that happened as Futurama seems to continue on in some way, shape, or form.

Sure, this might another instance where “Shut up and take my money!” is applicable.

You should note, however, that this mobile game is made “in collaboration with the many of the show’s original writers, cast and animators.”

TinyCo is developing “Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow” and the release date has yet to be announced.

Shut up and take my… oh, you know the drill by now.

Futurama: Game of Drones will be the latest connection to the beloved series Futurama that fans keep alive enough to justify something new. Futurama writer and producer Patric Verrone is on board along with Wooga and Fox Digital Entertainment in case you’re wondering how in line this game will be with the actual series.

As you might imagine, a game version of Futurama will involve their very ill advised deliveries in competition with another interstellar delivery service.

So, at this point, it would seem that Futurama fans only need to wait a few years for some new Futurama-related release to come around.

Without fail, SF Sketchfest’s cup runneth over with many of comedy’s best and brightest for nearly a month.

From Jan. 7th-24th, the gargantuan comedy festival known as SF Sketchfest will once again take over numerous venues throughout San Francisco. They’ve announced the line-up today and we’ll give you just a sample straight from the press release:

The 2016 SF Sketchfest features a 20th anniversary tribute to “Waiting For Guffman,” with a screening and cast reunion with Christopher Guest, Bob Balaban, Parker Posey and Fred Willard; in-person tributes to iconic actor Sally Field in conversation with Michael Showalter along with a screening of their new film, “Hello, My Name is Doris;” Jeff Goldblum in conversation and in musical performance with his Mildred Snitzer Orchestra; Patton Oswalt in conversation with Boots Riley; hit animated series “Bob’s Burgers” with creator Loren Bouchard and cast members Dan Mintz, Eugene Mirman, Larry Murphy, John Roberts and Kristen Schaal; acclaimed comedic author Dave Barry in conversation; spotlights on film favorites including “Hot Shots” 25th Anniversary with Jim Abrahams and Pat Proft; “Teen Witch”: The Peaches Christ Experience; and “Hook” 25th Anniversary; TV spotlights “Fishing with John” 25th Anniversary with John Lurie in conversation with Parker Posey; “Drunk History” with Derek Waters and friends; “The Adventures of Pete & Pete” live; “Galavant” with creators and cast, and “Sledge Hammer!;” celebrations of animated comedies “BoJack Horseman,” “Futurama” and “Dr. Katz Professional Therapist”; popular radio programs StarTalk Live with Bill Nye the Science Guy and Eugene Mirman and NPR’s Ask Me Another; appearances by comedians and actors including Pamela Adlon, Scott Adsit, Maria Bamford, Todd Barry, Guy Branum, Stephanie Courtney, Cameron Esposito, Noel Fielding, Dave Foley, Judah Friedlander, Ron Funches, Jeff Garlin, Janeane Garofalo, Chris Gethard, Bobcat Goldthwait, Dana Gould, Jon Hamm, Dan Harmon, John Hodgman, Moshe Kasher, Andy Kindler, Nick Kroll, Natasha Leggero, Beth Littleford, Jason Mantzoukas, Kevin McDonald, Thomas Middleditch, Laraine Newman, Tom Papa, Jimmy Pardo, Eddie Pepitone, Chelsea Peretti, Jim Rash, Paul Scheer, The Sklar Brothers, Martin Starr, Eric Stonestreet, Scott Thompson, Paul F. Tompkins, Michael Urie, Baron Vaughn, Jessica Williams; top comedy collectives Upright Citizens Brigade and The Groundlings; and musical performances by Princess featuring Maya Rudolph and Gretchen Lieberum in an Evening of the Music of Prince, Jonathan Coulton, Kate Micucci, Rhett Miller, Paul and Storm and more.

Yes, there’s more that’s coming round the bay than what you see above. If you’re already sold on going (and we struggle to think why you wouldn’t be), tickets go on sale this Sun. at 10AM PST here.

This Sun. Nov. 9th at 9PM on Fox, The SImpsons will do their second momentous crossover this season with Futurama in what will be called “Simpsorama”. We’re going to say that you shouldn’t miss that and should set a reminder/your DVR right now.

On top of their being a crossover episode with Family Guy after a decade of being hit animated series on Fox, The Simpsons will have a cameo from the titular Bob of Bob’s Burgers in the very same episode.

The Simpsons’ other big crossover, the one with Futurama, is going to air on Nov. 9th that will indeed feature the voices of the Futurama cast.

The Simpsons are really going for the fences with this season and we can’t wait to see it.

‘Futurama’ Series Finale Will Have Pre- and Post-Show Shows Hosted by Chris Hardwick

As Futurama reaches its series finale after an improbably rise from the dead along with the incredibly loyal cult following that it has fostered, what other way would be more appropriate to end the series than with a companion commentary shows, before and after the finale next Wed., hosted by Chris Hardwick?

Not much outside of having a Shelbyville hyper loop reference could do much better.

Futurama Not Renewed At Comedy Central

Comedy Central is calling curtains for Futurama despite its unbelievable rise from the dead. Perhaps, someone will do a Kickstarter…

1) What, no monsters? How is this a horror movie? Oh wait, that’s hilarious. Please watch the Red Band trailer for Tucker and Dale vs. Evil

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…

6) Check out Rob O’Reilly and Barry Rothbart give Superman Brandon Routh his other kryptonite: annoying Domino’s surprise delivery people begging to try Domino’s new pizza.

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) As the Hollywood Improv Lab has taken on a new identity as a comedy venue a few months ago (read more about that here), they deserve a new poster and they finally got one by Sean Barrett.

3) OH, so THERE IS an app for that? Futurama comes out with a “Head-in-a-Jar Creator”.

4) If you haven’t checked out the Opinion section of Laughspin.com, please do because we wrote a lot of it.

5) Don Rickles makes another appearance on TV tomorrow on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (12:35AM CBS). The idea of Rickles trying to play the mouth organ should be more than enough to make you set your DVRs.

6) Oh yeah, the 1st episode of the 2nd Season of Louie is on Hulu. We’re sure plenty of you watched it, but some ~~people~~ businesses can’t afford basic cable in their ~~home~~ office.
