What I'm Missing in New York City

Sometimes I wondered why I moved. Godspell is one of my favorite musicals ever, and it's back on Broadway It looks terrific!

Bret McKenzie and Kermit...

SNL's Kardashian Promo

I have nothing to say about the Kardashians that SNL hasn't already said for me on last night's parody.

'The Heart , She Holler"

Happy Halloween! And to those comedy fans who want a taste of their own favorite funny people with a smidge of crazy balls, now is the perfect time to shout about Adult Swim's new weird series The Heart, She Holler, premiering this Sunday November 6th at 12:30am.

The series stars Patton Oswalt as a wild man-child who inherits the town of The Heart, She Holler from his insane father, much to the fuming despair of his freakish sisters played by Kirsten Schaal and Heather Lawless, who each want the town for themselves.

Huffington Post claims the show "sincerely may one of the most bizarre programs ever to air on Adult Swim", strong words indeed, considering the channel airs Childrens' Hospital and NTSC - both surreal comedies that defy logic, continuity and boredom. But holy bath water, this show is a whole lot of nuts.

See for yourself. (Apologies for any commercials).

'It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown' Tonight!

On ABC-TV tonight at 8pm.

Flaming Lips to Cover The Beatles During Steve Jobs Tribute

MTV's O Music Awards will be streaming live from Los Angeles via the the world wide web on Halloween night. During the festivities, a musical tribute will be paid to the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs via The Flaming Lips, who will be performing "Revolution", previously taped using only iPads.

But until Monday night, let's enjoy the real guys doing the real version of a very real song that could be the "Occupy" Movement's soundtrack. The Beatles - much like a good old fashioned revolution - kick down walls and open minds.

Red Band Trailer and TV Fall News That Makes Me Happy

Writer and hip bon vivant Diablo Cody has a new web talk show over at LStudio.com. Her interviews are done from her own Airstream RV and her upcoming guests will be Sarah Silverman, Jack Black, Amanda Seyfried and Zooey Deschannel to name a few.

Here's her interview with John Krasinski.



Speaking of Zooey Deschannel, there's some good news for her and fans of the spanking new "New Girl" on Fox (Tuesdays at 9pm).

After a taste of this sweet, new series, it's been given a full season order. Also on the girlie front, CBS's Whitney Cummings and Michael Patrick King creation 2 Broke Girls, another new show I'm liking very much, has also been given a full season order.

Melissa McCarthy and 'SNL'

Did I mention that Melissa McCarthy was fantastic on SNL last Saturday? Did I also mention that her comedy and characters were so pure and well developed that she didn't even need cue cards, and if she did, she was masterful in hiding it? I didn't? Well, through the magic of NBC.com source codes, let me show you:







After winning the Emmy, finding a fan base from her tour de force performance in Bridesmaids, and joining Judd Apatow in his next new flick, m'lady is having a year. Well deserved.

Community: "We're Gonna Be Less Weird...

....and be more fun than the first two years combined!"

Sounds good! I do love weird. But with low ratings, I hope they find a bigger audience by cooling off on the gimmicks. As much as I adore this cast and the off the wall humor, the show veers off into the stratosphere with Tarrantino laced paint ball episodes and Claymation whismsies. Comedy fans will hate me for saying this - but 22 minutes of odd ball themed episodes disconnects me from the characters. It's the reason why Rob Corddry will not extend Childrens' Hospital beyond 11 minutes per episode despite fans crying for a full half hour show. You can only take kooky for so long.

But, the promos looks amazing, and I love the addition of John Goodman.

Amy Sedaris, Spokesperson

Amy Sedaris was on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to promote her new book Simple Times: Crafts for Poor People. But she took some time to demonstrate a product she holds near and dear...to her crotch.

Take that, David Caruso.

'Dick Cavett and Mel Brooks Together Again'

On December 7, 2010, Dick Cavett and Mel Brooks took the stage at the Saban Theater in Los Angeles for an evening of hilarious conversation. If you want to hear stories from one of our comedy forefathers, tune into HBO on Sunday, September 9th at 9pm to hear the "1000 Year Old Man" talk about the life of the man who created him. This might make Mel Brooks older than a 1000 years.
