New Vodka Ad: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Nx6LAT-FqxU And I think it's my favorite one yet. Season Three starts 7/27.

Can we have a thread to talk about Patton's upcoming things and stuff even though he's not answering Q's anymore? I want to keep up on his things. New Root Of All Evil show Wednesday: Bloggers vs Ultimate Fighting.

His last show is tomorrow. The station is changing format. So far today, he says he plans to do some kind of podcast. He consistently had the best comics on the air. Dana Gould and Doug Benson were regular guests, and he had a lot of great ones there now and then. The Artie Lange interview...

Ok, this animated show was originally pitched to FOX last season; a pilot was made but the show never went to series. Now it's been picked up by HBO for 10 episodes. I don't know if any changes have been made to the original pilot, but here's the description of it that was put out by FOX: THE...

Did you guys see this commercial for a Joel McHale show called Community? Chevy Chase got old!!!!!

Hi Gang I am shooting a one hour stand-up special for Comedy Central on Thursday August 25 in New York City. If you would like to come out I would certainly appreciate having you there. It's a new hour of material that I am really proud of and I am especially excited to tape it in New York. ...

I'm sure it will have a name at some point, but we might as well start a thread for any news about it. From the NY Post: Rashida Jones is coming back to the home screen. Jones, who had a role on "The Office" for a year, was just hired by that show's creators and NBC to star in the new show...

My girlfriend is trying to make me move to Austin. How's the improv/ stand up scene down there compared to NYC? I imagine there's mics and local stuff, but are the opportunities the same? Does it even matter for green comics? Is the improv comparable to UCB/ the Pit in nyc?

Pop My Culture is a bi-weekly podcast hosted by comedic actors and improvisers Cole Stratton and Vanessa Ragland. Join these two entertainment nerds and their special guests as they discuss movies, music, television, celebrity gossip, etc. without all those pesky “serious” topics like politics,...

Since Gelmania has become it's own living breathing entity (not just under the Earwolf Presents banner anymore), I figured it is entitled to it's own thread. Also, because it's so wonderful and it is changing my life.

Welp here's an attempt at a BillBrasky-style post. Some really great talent involved, it sounds pretty promising to me. FX ORDERS SIX EPISODES OF ANIMATED COMEDY SERIES “ARCHER” (working title) Series Created by Adam Reed Characters Voiced by Jon Benjamin, Chris Parnell, Aisha Tyler,...

(I thought there was a thread like this already, but I can't find it.) This is the thread for when you can't remember who told a joke and you've asked your useless friends and Googled it and it's driving you crazy so as a last resort you ask people on AST who will look down on you for...

I figured I'd start an Earwolf thread, since there is a LOT of neat stuff coming from now until the end of the year, much of which doesn't really belong in the Death Ray thread. This stuff, however, is primarily CDR oriented. As I mentioned somewhere online, this week CDR Radio is coming early...

Alec Baldwin is starting a biweekly interview podcast with WNYC. It's categorized as comedy, which is my excuse for starting this thread. http://www.wnyc.org/shows/heresthething/ http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=472939437 Should be interesting ...

It's the official thread. All "Proudly Resents" postings will be here (in case you were listening). Sean Conroy is on this this week doing a funny character/sketch. Plus a real interview with the founder of the Razzies. http://proudlyresents.com/razzies/

A heart warm thanks to Mr. Pardo for performing in Michigan at the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase this weekend. I had the great pleasure of finally seeing him live for the first and second time, on Thursday and Friday respectively. It was a 3-hour round trip drive each day to see his show in Ann...

Hey friends! My name is Jeff Crocker; I'm a behind-the-scenes guy for a lot of comedy stuff you probably have seen (Comedians of Comedy, Zach Galifianakis Live, and I produced the animated sequences in Super High Me). I also work on the Superego podcast (http://goSuperego.com), an absurdist...

Hi, cyberpals! My name is funnyclown, and I am here today on behalf of my friend, the "famous" "musician", Skip Lewers, creator of an exciting new podcast called "Whatever Happened to the Fucking Christs?" Unlike other podcasts, this one is an audiobook. It is the story of Skip Lewers, a...

I'm not sure what's going on, but in the last week NBC has been buying lots of comedies, most of which would be of interest to ASTers: And finally:

Hey, I kind of feel like this thread got lost in the changeover, and maybe we should try to resurrect it so that more people can see this pilot and then comment on it. Link for people too lazy to learn how to use torrents I think it's a really funny pilot and it seems like it's going to be...

Mike Birbiglia's new album Sleepwalk With Me comes out today(4/18/11), and is out on iTunes and Amazon. I really want to pick it up, but the last track called The Missile isn't sold through digital download, it's only available on the CD. What are you guys going to do? Are you going to pick it...

Hey, just wanted to let you know I will be on Conan on Feb. 6th.

Wow. This is the trailer for Bob Goldthwait's new movie. If you thought "World's Greatest Dad" was a controversial subject for a movie, I predict there's going to be a LOT of discussion about this film when it comes out. I'll let the trailer speak for itself: <iframe width="640" height="360"...

No, not the Doug Benson/Graham Elwood G4 series, but the Matt Walsh improvised movie. Synopsis: Fitz (James Pumphrey), a lovable bone-headed pot dealer, mistakenly decides to go on the lam. He visits his estranged cross dressing dad (Rich Fulcher) to seek advice. In Fitz’s world, he has the...

We didn't have one yet on the new board. Last night's episode was really cute. The jokes were really clever (the "LISA"-"ILSA" thing; applauding for words that have been removed from the dictionary in the past year, "San Francisco People Mover", etc.) The best thing about it was that it really...
