I’ve spoken with Eric Andre a handful of times and he always brings a unique kind of energy. You hear the thing about actors and comics being bored by the same line of questioning during press tours and it’s the same thing with canned answers. Eric…

Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s HitRecord has been around for more than a decade, prompting collaborative creativity while fostering a community. The endeavor has been a successful one by measures creative (books, music, short films) and financial (for both…

Mo Mandel’s new special on Discovery, Small Town Throwdown (which you can stream on the Discovery app and here) gave me pause. It’s brim-full of charming reminders to not judge a book by its cover while the comic gets hands on to free towns from the…

What Space Force is and is not will be revealed to you when you watch it (it’s available to stream now on Netflix). As Greg Daniels told us when we spoke a couple of weeks ago, he’s eager for people to stop thinking that the show is “The Office in…

“I’m living day to day. I’m not doing this whole, ‘Shakespeare wrote King Lear’ [thing],” Patton Oswalt tells me, content to present as someone striving to maintain sanity and empathy over some imagined need to be productive or attain some kind of…

That Upload season 1 ending. I just want to talk about it so much because it’s such a wild, crushing turn of events that leads into so many, many questions about what comes next for Nora and Nathan on the show. But in a time where the rules of time…

The amount of craft that goes into making something that seems off the cuff and effortlessly funny is something that I find to be endlessly fascinating. And you probably do too, or else why would you click on an interview? As one of the three main…

It can be cathartic to dunk on your past. I use Facebook Memories as a shooting gallery for my previous “deep thoughts,” commenting that I’d like to go back in time to hit myself in the face with a toaster and things like that. And it’s fun! Anyway,…

Comedian Rory Scovel is poised for a breakout, taking the creative reigns and lead role in Robbie, a freshly launched, bingeable series available through Comedy Central’s website and YouTube channel. In the show, Scovel, who you may know from his…

I would have had to have been actively on fire to not take the opportunity to talk with Jerry Seinfeld about his new Netflix special, 23 Hours To Kill (which is streaming now) on a Zoom conference call when it was presented to me. When I was 15, I…

Eve Lindley is the breakout star of AMC’s Dispatches From Elsewhere, co-starring alongside series creator and producer Jason Segel, legend Sally Field, and Outkast musical genius Andre Benjamin. Despite that imposing list of screen mates, however,…

Ever present as it may have been throughout, chaos wasn’t a substitute for a plan when Adam Pally and Ben Schwartz hosted CBS’ Late Late Show for a single, glorious, and oft-celebrated episode in 2015 — it was part of a larger plan. Nurtured by the…

Over the last few years, we’ve gotten to know Andy Richter a little better than being known as the funny, talented, and affable comedy partner in crime to Conan O’Brien. At least in as much as you can get to know someone through social media posts. I…

The controlled chaos of an improv show gets expanded to a full hour in Middleditch and Schwartz, a Netflix special/collection of three distinct taped performances showcasing actors Thomas Middleditch and Ben Schwartz’s command of a form that they’ve…

Chris D’Elia is an actor, host of the Congratulations podcast, and a stand-up comic with three one-hour Netflix specials (and an episode of the streaming giant’s comedy series, Comedians Of The World) under his belt. His latest, No Pain, is available…

Officially, Escape From Virtual Island is an Audible Original and a scripted audio-only comedy podcast starring Paul Rudd and a collection of familiar comics and comic actors. If you’re familiar with the way back, though, it sounds a bit like an…

You absolutely can’t say that it’s been boring. Across three seasons, the Seth Rogen-produced sci-fi comedy Future Man has done… all of it? Zipping back and forth through time, playing with the multiverse, playing with genre tropes, and saving the…

There’s very little that feels aspirational about the existence of the typical sitcom dad. Soft around the middle, a dork who is susceptible to being dunked on by a wife who barely seems to like him and their wicked and precocious kids. No style, no…

As a part of the comedic response that has kicked into high gear over the last two weeks, Roy Wood Jr. has found a battle plan during the Coronavirus quarantine. He’s making people laugh while keeping them informed as a part of The Daily Show‘s…

Purveyors of comedy catnip like Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Bedtime Stories, and Billion Dollar Movie (among many other projects that they’ve created and/or produced), Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim are eager to put down roots with Beef House, a…
