Dude, ThurberMingus' post got deleted!...I found it by pressing back and quoted it just incase....forum had a fit just now...posted my reply twice and deleted someone else's post! Anyway, glad I could save it (unless it was deleted on purpose...tell me):
Steven Brody is another one. But he is way better live than anytime I have seen him in something. Can't beat his audience interaction.
I know that Chankgeez...Just saw some really, really early shows haha. It got way better the second and third time. I think sometimes the situation helps instead of just being up there rambling. And it was funny at times...really funny. Bobby Bottleservice was really, really rough at the time and Urma was a more polished character (can't remember the other ones I saw...I think the NJ housewife kinda lady and I think there was a sailor or something?). Didn't know that about the Marx Bros. though...interesting.
Sarah Silverman and Matt Besser are actually much funnier when workshopping though (or at least live).
There is like the UCB crowd (all the people mentioned so far and people like Zack Gal-a-not-going-to-look-up-spelling) and the old-time crowd like Louis C.K., Jon Lovitz, Adam Carolla, etc that go through the Improv and Comedy Store...much prefer the UCB crew.
Ed Helms had a great show at UCB with puppets that brought in three short comedian sets a night. It was awesome! I think I saw Nick Kroll at that too.
Bob Dukas is awesome! See him all the time. One of the best live...ThurberMingus wrote:This is awesome! The comedy scene, especially the Earwolf crew, is kinda weird like that, but in a good way. Like Bob Dukas is always showing up in Comedy Bang Bang or Kroll Show and I'm sure he has a cameo in the League or something. It's like Andy Othling and Juan Alderete showing up in Knobs videos with the OBNE guys or something. Small semi-cliquey circles form, and I don't really mind.lordgalvar wrote:Saw Nick Kroll testing those characters at "workshops" (I mean, cheap LA comedy shows)....We would go to another show and Nick Kroll would be there as a special guest and come out as Urma or Bobby Bottleservice or whatever...a lot of the time it fell kinda flat. 6 months to a year later, there was Kroll Show. Kinda awesome that I got to watch him test out all the material. I think he was working on his acting or characters more than the jokes...
He always did this one joke about cat butts and pretended to be a cat...saw it live like 3 times haha. Like half of the The League live show was Nick Kroll characters...
It's Always Sunny live show was good too (the whole Nightman Cometh thing).
Yo casebaby you wanna change the thread name to "Official Kroll Show Discussion Thread"?
