Last night I saw Stella, Michael Ian Black's comedy troupe. I have no idea how to describe them or review the show. It was just three guys in suits and ties, holding microphones, and bantering. Really dirty and smart bantering. They showed a few sketch videos, heckled audience mem-bers, and were quite silly. At the beginning some guy came on stage to talk to MIB ("rem-ember me? I saw you at your last show!" etc etc.) They made fun of him, he was escorted off, and MIB looked at us and said, "So. That happened."

Oh, and Michael is amaaaaaazingly sexy, which of course you cannot tell from my customary blurry "But don't you feel like you are there?" iPhone photos:

I've never seen them, but they have a DVD on their web site. I don't get it, is it a sitcom or a stand up act?

It's definitely stand up. Because that's what they do, stand there. It's funny in a silly snarky way. But I wouldn't say it is hilarious. Of course, I was stone-cold sober, and given that it was a college crowd I doubt anyone else was. So, it was going over great. Not sure that helps. I don't think I'd necessarily jump at the DVD.

Don't judge me, but when it was already partway through, I started watching some hokey holiday movie on ION called "The Christmas Clause." It became heaps more interesting when I suddenly saw that Andrew Airlie (aka Sam's dad) was in it. Heh.

Ah, pace, the basis of the little slide show I did of the scene between Ken's character and Angel, based on something Blue found where people were speculating on Steve the Demon v. Angel. Yeah, I know that sounds weird. Hated that episode, by the way; the demon-spawn storyline was pretty ewww. Ken was great as the fake-sensitive single-photographer-about-town, though. (Format on the slide show is effed-up, but Ken looks good in the pics.)

From the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette--wow everything is Pittsburgh today!

"There are also online series, such as TheWB.com's "Children's Hospital," a comedy from actor Rob Corddry that stars Corddry, Lake Bell ("Surface"), Nate Corddry ("United States of Tara"), Megan Mullally ("Will & Grace"), Ed Helms ("The Office") and Ken Marino ("Reaper"). The WB.com will introduce a new music-infused series from Josh Schwartz, creator TV's "The O.C.," "Chuck" and "Gossip Girl.""

I do believe I'll check that show out!

Okay, it's pretty funny. Somewhat racy.

So I recorded BSG tonight on Scifi and I noticed they were also airing Star Trek: TNG which I love so I thought okay and I recorded that too. I'm watching it tonight (an episode called Who Watches the Watchers from the third season) and I'm thinking this heavily made-up proto-Vulcan character looks and sounds an awful lot like Ray Wise. Sure enough. That was him. Funny coincidence that this was the episode I caught, I never watch the show these days.

A very nice, in-depth interview with Kandyse. It's almost all BSG, which I know many people will love. There is a Reaper mention too:

Shaun> Of course you were on Reaper as well! We’re glad you have your own series now, and not just these guest star appearing roles.

Kandyse> Well, Reaper was so different than anything I’d done so long, playing this very light kind of character, and somebody’s girlfriend. Everyone on that show is so great; Tyler Labine is so funny, I was just distracted all of the time on set, especially if he was on set. I’d be in the scene watching him, trying not to laugh, and was like, “Ok, this is a lot harder than death and destruction and mayhem.” Trying to keep a straight face on a comedy is just a little harder for me. But I had a great time, and it’s a really fun set to be on.

I tried watching that show, but found it painfully boring after the first 10-15 minutes. That was still long enough for me to see Andrew Airlie on there, though, which was such a shock since 1) I wasn't expecting it, and 2) he wasn't in zombie makeup. XD

I didn't see the movie, but I'm loving Season One of Dead Like Me. Christine Willes plays the most awesome and funny character, totally different from Gladys (except for her love of cats!) and it's a different take on reapers than our beloved show. I highly recommend checking it out, it's good fun with some dark, and some philosophical, elements.
