The quest for the 2010 Andy Kaufmann Award ends tonight at Gotham Comedy Club as the 8 men left standing will attempt to out-comedy each other using "elements of originality, creativity, spirit and execution, as exemplified by Andy Kaufman."

The finalists are: The Nice Brothers (Trevor Williams and Adam Newman), recent transplantNick Vatterott, Chicago's Sasha & The Noob, Brett Druck, Alex Feldman (who I suspect isthis guy?), Harry Tarjanian, comedic juggler Marcus Monroe, and Harrison Greenbaum.

Previous recipients of the AKA include Kristen Schaal and Reggie Watts.

Friday, October 8, 2010 at 4:39PM Arianna Huffington promised last week on The Daily Show that she would provide free bus service from New York to DC for The Rally to Restore Sanity. Registration to get on one of these things closed this morning but reports were circulating yesterday that over 9000! people had signed up so far. I did the math, and with 50 passengers per charter, that's over 180 buses! I can't find a spot to lock up my folding bike in Manhattan, where's she gonna stick all these buses? Does Arianna even have her CDL?

Even if Arianna rented out the Fung Wah fleet for a day, it's a statistical inevitability that several of those buses would flip over and catch on fire en route. No thanks! Is it possible to charter the USS Intrepid? Because she'll need that and the Queen Mary 2 to transport 9000 hucksters.

Thursday, September 16, 2010 at 4:59PM The lineup for the second annual Friars Club Comedy Film Festival in New York was announced this week. It's the nation's only comedy film fest and will run September 23rd through October 1st, opening with a screening at the legendary Ziegfeld theater and closing with the Friars Club Roast of Quentin Tarantino. I went to last year's opening of A Serious Man, those were some star studded good times, man.

The schedule this time around is highlighted by the world premiere of Brother's Justice from Dax Shepard and David Palmer, the documentary American: The Bill Hicks Story, the winner of the 2010 Edinburgh Film Festival for Best New British Feature Skeletons, the film Tiny Furniture--which won a prize at SXSW and was part of Rooftop Films' recent summer programming--a bunch of other movies, shorts including those made by the winners of the FRISC competition, panels and more.

Friday, August 20, 2010 at 6:48PM By: Nat Towsen

America's favorite anonymous reality-TV star returns to the digital airwaves this weekend as Delocated begins its second season on Adult Swim. The stakes are raised this time around--Sergei Mirminsky (Steve Cirbus) to take over the job of killing Jon (Jon Glaser), leaving his brother Yvgeny (Eugene Mirman) to pursue his vodka-centric standup career. Meanwhile, Jon struggles to maintain his relationship with his girlfriend (Zoe Lister-Jones), aided only by the emotional terror of his situation.

The season premiere, airing this Sunday on Adult Swim at 10PM EST/PST, sees the always-hilarious Jerry Minor join the cast as network executive Mighty Joe Jon, The Black Blond. With characters dropping like flies that stepped afoul of the mafia, one hopes that Minor makes it through the season. The episode also features plenty of Jon Glaser's beautiful shamelessness and a stellar cameo by Todd Barry as "himself."

Episode two prominently features Jon Glaser's dick. It is, of course, censored. Not out of shame, but out of a desire to preserve the reality-TV aesthetic. These guys are pros.
