Michael Showalter: Seroquel

Michael Showalter talks about some drugs he took once. Very funny stuff.

There's Nothing Funny on TV Anymore

I've been enjoying Mr. Kotce's link to Derek and Simon these past couple of mornings and feel compelled to share a link to my own favorite comedy duo Clark and Michael. Starring Michael Cera (Arrested Development) and Clark Duke (Greek) as would be screenwriters trying to make it in LA, this ten episode series is available exclusively online. Aside from his stellar work in Arrested Development, Michael Cera has been criminally underutilized in his major film roles but here his comedic talents are on full display opposite the equally funny Clark Duke. The series has a sequential plot, so make sure you start from the first episode.

Maybe You Seen It, Maybe You Ain't

One of the funniest things on video in recent months (years?) is an internet television show by creator Bob Odenkirk  (Mr. Show).  The show is called Derek and Simon.  It's about two friends that live in Los Angeles, one is a poon hound, the other a more reserved neurotic, young Jewish guy.  Each episode varies in length from about One and 1/2 minutes to Five.  Timing aside each episode packs enough comic punch to fuck up Mike Tyson.  I feel that this is were Odenkirk really succeeds.  Bob Odenkirk can't make a feature film to save his life but these little web episodes from Superdeluxe.com will have you laughing for days.
