Jim Gaffigan: Beyond the Pale

I'm not 100% sure if that's stand up, but I was on the ground laughing, which is unusual because that's usually not my brand of humor.

liked it, good stuff. his riff on christmans and cake i really liked

Great choices, Chris Rock would have to be my number one.

He is great. I don't know why i don't have more stand up on DVD, i love watching it. Sitting down with a hot coffee or tea settling into a good bit of stand up, my idea of a good night in.

Oh on a totally different subject, did you catch Louis Theroux sunday night? it was on violence in Philadelphia?

I love watching stand-up too, and I don't have much on DVD either. Not sure why. I guess it's because it's often expensive compared to TV-on-DVD - you can often get a whole season of something for the same price as one 80-minute stand-up show. I do have a couple of Chris Rock's shows on DVD though. Did you see Kill The Messenger on Friday?

Yep, I liked the Louis Theroux ep a lot. Did you see it?

Yeah i taped Kill The Messenger and watched about 30 mins of it, good so far, looking forward to finishing it.

yeah saw Louis Theroux , very hard hitting and heavy. The kid who was shot in the neck, damn that was horrible. he is in africa next week right?

Yep, Johannesburg, South Africa. Should be good

Thanks for the list. I love to put clips of comedians in between songs on my show so I'm ALWAYS looking for great comedians. I love Eddie Izzard, Brian Regan and Louis CK. I'll check back often to see other people comments.
Thanks again!!
