Jon Glaser @ Invite Them Up

Mehr Glaser (zusammen mit Jon Benjamin) u.a. hier und hier.

Weil ich oben die Scharpling & Wurster-Rezension gepostet habe: Hier gibt es einige schöne „Best Show“-Nummern.

latho, das Paul F. Tompkins-Special schon gesehen?

lathoDas tue ich gerne!

:bier:

Wenn die Anrufe im Best Show Vault zu viel für den Anfang sind, lade ihc auch gerne mal einen persönlichen Liebling hoch (die Nummer, die mich „angesteckt“ hat).

Na dann, viel Spaß!

The most ingenious Scharpling/Wurster sketch I have ever heard. This piece goes so far behind any type of humor I’ve ever imagined that it almost makes me feel stupid for even begin born. It’s completely absurd, and I’m not going to say anything about it lest I ruin it for you, but pay close attention to exactly how many different layers of humor they pile onto this thing as it progresses. I could literally write down a list of all the different comedic themes that are presented throughout the half-hour, and it would go on for like a year! It’s not even that it’s that SOPHISTICATED a call — it’s just a very strange, interesting idea that is executed PERFECTLY. Jon’s character is an absolute scream of funniness, and Tom’s performance may actually surpass his work in „Tom’s Daddy.“ It’s not often that Tom is required to do anything besides call a character on his bullshit, but when he does, as on here, he shows an incredible gift for NEVER LAUGHING at the most hilarious and ludicrous comments that are thrown at him. And that’s hard to do! If I’d been in his shoes during this call, I would have completely destroyed it by laughing so hard!

Das hört sich echt klasse an. „Human Giant“ ist eh toll. Gab ja vor der MTV-Serie schon ein paar Videos im Internet, u.a.:

Clell Tickle
The Illusionators

Öhm, Aziz hat auch ein schönes Set auf dem „Invite Them Up“-Boxset. Also, bei Interesse…
