Liz and Liz are the least exaggerated characters of any that have appeared on CBB. I love it.

Kroll and Slate are great as are PubLizity but I've found both of the Taran/Paul eps too busy and messy to get in to.

Any episode where Scott derails the improv with maths to this extent worms its way into my heart

I really liked today's ep, it was so silly. All the math problems, the horse births and funerals, it was great.

I don't think I've ever laughed harder at a couple improv people coming up with fake names than I did at this episode.

Kroll and Slate episode didn't do much for me and I stopped listening at some point, but today's episode had me in stitches. The absurdity of descending the horse fighting rabbit hole was fantastic.

Oh my god I can't believe I didn't get those references. I just heard them and thought "those sound familiar, they must have been real horse names". I'm the worst Mr. Show fan.

Yeah exactly, it was great but maybe not so surprising that Scott had that queued up but impressive that it was answered so quickly.

RandomPauI posted:I missed those. When were the references made? When one of the guys is talking about having to whisper in the horse's ear to inspire it to punching, he can't come up for a name of a horse that's talking poo poo about the other horse, which is where Scott suggests "Papa's Delicate Condition".

Their first appearance I didn't enjoy that much, but the thought of two full sized horses punching each other to death had me cracking up pretty hard. Same here. Embarrassed myself on public transport at the points where they were acting out the horses dying.

Apparently Saucerman is on @Midnight tonight. I've never seen the show, but this'll probably be my litmus test to see how many zany Chris Hardwick nerd references I can handle over one half hour.

More like how many unfunny puns you can handle. That show nukes my Twitter feed every night.

A lot of people in the @Midnight TVIV thread also had irrational hatred towards Chris Hardwick but they all seem to love it regardless. Scott Aukerman has been on the show at least once before, possibly twice? And you can watch all the past eps on the Comedy Central website. PFT has also been on a couple times, along with other CBB/Earwolf/LA podcast scene favorites.

How much of @Midnight is prewritten? The show has a pool of comedy writers but the main appeal to me is that the comedians are improvising.

Pretty much all of it except the two tablet typing challenges. They make notes ahead of time based on the subjects(this Gawker story! that cat gif!) and then just pick and choose what answer they use(or improvise), and then edit out the unfunny stuff so it fits to 22 minutes.

Thinking about that show makes me kind of sad for the people involved, from Chris Hardwick on up to the execs. You have on opportunity to put a show on TV, and recycling stuff from the internet seemed like the best choice?

It's cheap to make and gives them the excuse to book fun guests you know and love from podcasts to make silly jokes about dumb things. Have you guys even watched the show? It can be loving hilarious and it's easy money for people like Scott and PFT.

@Midnight is at worst ok, usually pretty funny and most importantly is pretty much the only way in which a lot of very funny people are currently getting on TV and allowed to be funny in their own way - not least an absolute shitload of CBB regulars.

If you're into the LA comedy podcast scene, watch @Midnight. It's people you like making jokes on TV. How have you not checked it out yet?

I don't think it presents the guests on it in a very good light. I like those people, but if I just knew them from @midnight, I wouldn't.

If I hadn't seen Aukerman on @Midnight, I never would have learned about the Comedy Bang Bang! Season 1 DVDs, which are already on sale and sound amazing:quote:Each episode here has an audio commentary by Aukerman. It's a bit confusing though, because they are listed on the menu as featuring famous people like Tompkins, Andy Daly, Jon Daly, Kroll and Morris, but it's just Aukerman, who, while trying to share details about the making of the show, gets interrupted by guests like CakeBoss (CakeBoss), Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, Don Dimello, saxophonist Barry R, El Chupacabra and Bob Ducca.

Look I get irritated with Hardwick's yelling enthusiasm like everyone, but @midnight gets some real funny people on it and he pretty much lets them work. Laughed my rear end off last night with Aukerman's "The dog swallowed the condom" line.
