I just caught the Howie Mandel interview from a few weeks back, and holy poo poo is that Melby lady a loving insane bitch or what? The whole production is ready to shoot, everyone is waiting, including Howie and Howard, and she just sits in her trailer for an hour or two? That's outrageous, I don't understand how anyone would put up with that poo poo.

Yeah, people throw tizzys like that all the time. Most celebs are incredibly hard to work with and insanely fragile people that will fall to the ground if they don't get what they want. You really have to use kid hands if you work around them. I've been a crew member on some shows and movies and man alive, you have to avoid them celebs as much as possible. I've heard from other crew members incredible horror stories of people getting fired, assaulted and so on. That leaked audio of christian bale outright RANTING at some lighting dude is pretty spot on, and it gets excused because of the emotional trauma of him having to pretend to be shooting a green screen with a fake gun or whatever. Actors are all kind of crazy, it's incredible when you get a down to earth one that treats others like humans. Which is a weird dynamic to me, because those fans make them who they are.

Isn't being late a cardinal sin in Hollywood though? Even a lovely TV show costs a ton of money and that crew is getting paid whether or not the cameras are rolling.

Blows me away that someone could be late and not fall all over themselves apologizing, though. Especially in a situation where some of your fellow crew members are waking up at 4am to do hours of radio and then being ready for your show and you have nothing else going on at all.

If you're big enough you can be pretty batshit crazy. My aunt is an actress and has been working pretty consistently for several decades. Not huge, but if I showed you a picture you'd probably recognize her as a recurring character on some show you'd seen in the past. She's described working with people so crazy they were climbing trees or talking to people who weren't there. If your name is big enough to draw an audience people will put up with you. quote:Even a lovely TV show costs a ton of money and that crew is getting paid whether or not the cameras are rolling. A buddy of mine has a union job and works on various shows. He tells me they often pad hours for the employees. Like, even if the job he does only requires him to be there for two hours that day and he's explicitly told he can go home, they're still going to pay him for the 8 hours he was scheduled. It's been a while since we discussed it, but the way he described the situation made it sound like equal parts union benefits/rules and production companies wanting to pad their budgets. Obviously nobody wants to sit around wasting money, but he made it sound like there's not much of an incentive to under perform your budget on a successful show. The whole management mentality of, "If I prove I can spend less, they'll cut my budget."

Crew members are not celebrities; why would the stars deign to notice their existence, let alone feel the need to apologize to them, as if they were on the same level? Edit: less sarcastically, remember that these people are told night and day how wonderful and brilliant they are. It would be almost impossible for a person to remain sane with all that hot air being blown up their rear end non-stop. prefect fucked around with this message at 00:58 on Nov 5, 2014 |

Arties career and miserable life is pretty much over anyway. Is it even worth bringing up that sad sacks name? He might as well be any schmo off the streets as far as the entertainment world is concerned.

Another thing to admire about Howard was he really knew how to use Artie effectively. The same with Jokeman or John. All those people are unfunny disasters outside of the Stern Show.

This is so true. Artie was great on the Stern show when he was playing off Howard or Howard was there to reel him in but his stand up act and his books are so loving bad. Artie needed the show and the show needed Artie.

I'm always surprised Artie was never in talks to do a John Belushi bio-pic or something. He could have practically passed for his twin back during the K-Rock days.

Two words: Beer League. Bill Murray talked about this, and Stern brought it up again this morning during Martin Short's interview: to be funny in a movie, it's not enough to be a comedian, you need to be an actor. As funny as he is, Beer League (and Dirty Work) proved that Artie is no actor.

Yesterday I said a few comments that offended a few people, and I'd like to extend my apology for those comments. Unfortunately, I didn't represent myself properly on how I wanted to explain myself. I have a tremendous respect for all cultures and all races. If I did offend or hurt anybody, I again extend my most sincere apologies. Thank you very much for understanding, and I greatly appreciate your time.

Artie's act has always been 'blue collar guy who tells the off-color jokes guys tell on the docks' (or wherever). I don't know who Cari Champion is, but if she's a hot ESPN reporter I guarantee you Artie's comments fall on the tasteful end of things dudes are saying about her.

Blue collar, white collar, green collar they're pretty lovely. I mean if your argument is "He's not as disgusting as the most disgusting construction worker alive" then OK I guess you're right maybe? I've seen Dirty Work probably a million times and Artie's made me laugh a lot but at this point, he's just loving sad. Yeah he still might have money (until he snorts it all away) but he's just a gross bloated rear end in a top hat who uses everyone in his life to keep living his incredibly selfish lifestyle. I bet his mom is still cooking for him. Sad stuff. haljordan fucked around with this message at 00:53 on Nov 6, 2014 |

- I think Artie's funny, the show took a nosedive once he left. - I thought his response was perfect - I thought the tweets were rough and cringey, but sometimes poo poo falls flat when you're a comedian who does material that is divisive. Sometimes you try stuff and it's like "oh... a little too brash, people aren't laughing". - Artie most certainly has issues with women - Artie has mental issues and drug addiction issues, which he will be fighting with for the rest of his (probably short) life. Such is the case with a lot of creative types. - I love Richard Christy How Much Art fucked around with this message at 00:57 on Nov 6, 2014 |
