Strange Days

As the caring father on TV's "Full House" and the goofy host of "America’s Funniest Home Videos," Bob Saget became a lovable household favorite that families welcomed into their homes each week.

The Voices in His Head

Picking up where his best selling memoir Never Have Your Dog Stuffed left off, Alan Alda found he had a few new stories to tell, including nearly dying on a mountaintop in Chile. But he also wanted to reflect on the transitions in his life and in all our lives by "overhearing" some of the things he's heard himself saying in both private and public conversations. In the book, Alda discovers that "doorways are where the truth is told," and wonders if there's one thing -- art, activism, family, money, fame -- that could lead to a "life of meaning." In a book that is candid, wise, and as questioning as it is inclusive, Alda amuses and moves us with his unique and hilarious meditations on questions great and small. Things I Overheard While Talking to Myself(now in paperback) is another superb Alan Alda performance, as inspiring and entertaining as the man himself.

Hogan is the biggest name in professional wrestling history, and has been a cultural icon for decades.

Since then Hogan has gone on to capture 12 Heavyweight championships in both WWE and WCW, starred in Rocky III as well as a number of other feature films, and hosted NBC’s “American Gladiators.” In January, Hogan will be making his return to the squared circle when he takes over Spike TV’s TNA Wrestling.

The Return of Pauly Shore

When your father is not only a comedian but is also the owner of the world famous comedy club, The Comedy Store, there is a pretty good chance you're preordained for a life in the entertainment industry. For Pauly Shore that opportunity came in the early 90’s when he exploded onto the scene with a popular standup comedy act, a show on MTV, and starring roles in multiple blockbuster movies. To put it simply, Pauly Shore was everywhere. Then came the late 90’s, a period in which he was dubbed “The Dethroned King of dumb-ass comedy.” But this would not be the end of Mr. Shore. Instead, he fought back with the mockumentary Pauly Shore is Dead, and reinvented himself for a return to standup comedy. He also recently starred in the new film Adopted, which you can own on DVD now.

Along with being a standup comedian, Rhea also starred on the sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch, hosted both her own talk show and "The Biggest Loser" and has starred in a number of films including the upcoming movie Love N' Dancing. Caroline was also involved in a project called Standup 360, where audiences can watch standup comedy in movie theaters

Wilson, Tom

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 11:04:48 -0800

Big Pop Fun

When he wasn’t able to break into the industry as an actor, Tom Wilson turned to stand-up comedy in order to get his fix for performing on stage. Though this wasn’t his initial career of choice, the move was successful and earned him guest appearances on The Tonight Show with both Johnny and Jay, David Letterman, Regis and all the major morning shows. From there Tom was eventually able to break into acting and has since starred in some twenty-five feature films including the Back to the Future trilogy, and The Informant! (also starring Bob Zany)
FACTOID - Tom Wilson is a talented painter. He was commissioned to paint a number of original works for Disneyland to celebrate their 50th anniversary

Williams, Harland

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 06:55:35 -0800

Absolutely Har-Larious

Harland Williams has a knack for playing memorable, out of the ordinary characters in films. He was the urine chugging cop in Dumb & Dumber, a prison bitch pot-head in Half Baked, a deranged hitchhiker in There’s Something About Mary and a cross dressing college student in Sorority Boys. What you may not know about Williams is that he’s also a hilarious stand-up comedian with an onstage persona that's every bit as bizarre as his movie roles. With an uniqe delivery, goofy facial expressions and whacked-out sense of humor, Harland has become a star on television, stage and screen but you can also find Harland's handy work in bookstores, but not in the aisle you may be thinking. He's the author and illustrator of a number of children's books including Likety Split and The Kid With Too Many Pets.

Menounos, Maria

Tue, 13 Oct 2009 03:47:51 -0800

Currently you can catch her most nights on "Access Hollywood" where she has covered everything from the red carpet to the most recent Olympic Games. This week, Maria will be going on some "Madcap Adventures" in which she'll leave her comfort zone and pursue actives she's only dreamed of.

FACTOID - While Maria may be beautiful, her actual trademark is her unique laugh, something she describes as a cross between Fran Drescher and Woody Woodpecker.

Cook, Dane

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 07:54:50 -0800

The Great Dane

After releasing two certified Platinum comedy albums, starring in a number of hit films, and being named as one of the World’s 100 Most Influential People by Time Magazine, comedian Dane Cook could have easily continued down the same comedic road he was on and nobody would have blamed him. But Cook decided to do something different, for his upcoming comedy tour, "Dane Cook Live!", he came up with all new material that would work better in a more intimate setting with a nightclub atmosphere. Dane Cook has starred in a number of films including Dan in Real Life, Mr. Brooks, Employee of the Month and Good Luck Chuck. He also starred in his won HBO series, Tourgasm, has hosted SNL, and his comedy specials have won the Comedy Central Stand-up Showdown competition.

Titus, Christopher

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 07:09:29 -0800

The Love is Evol Tour

The short lived FOX comedy series Titus took viewers into the lives of two brothers trying to deal with their crude, abusive, sadistic, drunken father. It was your typical feel-good, all-american, heartwarming story. The amazing part about this series was that comedian Christopher Titus was able to take subject matter like this and turn it into comedy gold. Of course this comes as no surprise considering the show was based on Titus' real life, and he'd been using it as fodder for his outstanding standup comedy act for years. He was recently featured in his very own comedy special "Love is Evol" and is now embarking on a huge nationwide comedy tour.
FACTOID – Titus first gained national attention with his one-man show, "Norman Rockwell Is Bleeding."

Pollak, Kevin

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 07:08:08 -0800

For the most part, audiences only knew Kevin Pollak as one of Hollywood’s finest character actors, forgetting that he is also one the best standup comedians in the country. But that would all change when Kevin, performing as Christopher Walken, uttered the sentence, “Frankenstein never scared me; marsupials do, because they’re fast.” In that instant, he had created a catchphrase that would remain in our usage for years to come. This isn't meant to downplay his fine film work in movies like A Few Good Men, The Usual Suspects and The Whole Nine Yards, but we’re talking about a peice that remains among B&T's most requested bits. Kevin is also the host of the new FOX television game show "Million Dollar Drop," airing every night this week at 8PM ET.

Rogen, Seth

Seth Rogen Reporting for Duty

Seth Rogan has become one of the hottest young actors in Hollywood after teaming up with his “Freaks and Geeks” buddy Judd Apatow to create a number of hit comedy films including The 40-Year Old Virgin, Pineapple Express and Superbad. But Rogen’s string of successful projects goes beyond comedy as he's now the star of the new super hero action film The Green Hornet, which opens in theaters everywhere Friday, January 14th.

Bang !Bang! Bang! Bang!

Though many actors in Hollywood do their best to avoid being typecast, comedian John Witherspoon has made a living doing just the opposite. Known as one of the funniest dads in movies, Witherspoon has forged a career playing the wacky and scene-stealing father in a number of hit films including the Friday trilogy, House Party, Boomerang, Little Nicky and I’m Gonna Git You Sucka. Witherspoon’s acting work can be traced back to such TV classics as "WKRP in Cincinnati" and "Barnaby Jones," but somehow he’s been able to remain relevant in a town that’s always focused on finding the next best thing. Not just an actor, John Witherspoon is an accomplished standup comic who can make you laugh with nothing more than a look, or his catchphrase “Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!”

Nealon, Kevin

Now Hear Me Out!

During his nine year run on Saturday Night Live comedian/actor Kevin Nealon not only hosted Weekend Update, he also introduced us to a number of memorable characters including The Subliminal Man, Hanz and Franz, and Mr. No Depth Perception. Since then, Kevin's been featured in a variety of films such as Happy Gilmore and Anger Management and currently stars in Showtime's hit series Weeds. Oh, and did we mention that he also just became a first-time father at the age of 53? The process of having a child at an age when other dads are sending their children to college was was such an adventure, he decided to chronicle it in his new book, Yes, You're Pregnant, But What About Me?He covers these topics and more in his new comedy special, Now Hear Me Out, which is now out on DVD.

Not too shabby. These days you can find him on stages across the country and on the TBS sitcom My Boys alongside Jim Gaffigan.

King of the Mountains

Singer/songwriter/standup comedian Rodney Caringtontried his hand at sitcoms a few years back when he started in his own television series, but he (and the network) decided it was time to try something else. Now, he's decided to take his act to the big screen along with good friend Toby Keith in the brand new feature film, Beer For My Horses, opening August 8th. But when he's not acting, Rodney can still put on a hell of a show, and continues to do so all over the country. Last year he released a new Comedy Central standup special (now available on DVD), a brand new comedy CD, King of the Mountains, and his first book, Coming Clean.

Born in North Philly

There are two things you can count on whenever Ralph Harris takes the stage, one this that you're going to have a good time, the other is that he's probably close to or is already engaged to be married. A Tonight Showveteran and finalist on Last Comic Standing. Harris isn't your typical stand-up comedian because he does much more than tell jokes on stage, he acts them out. During his performances, he's constantly developing and transforming himself into new and interesting characters so that when he starts reliving his childhood memories he doesn't just talk about his relatives, he becomes them. Ralph's natural chameleon-like ability has helped him land a few roles in hit films like Dreamgirls and Evan Almighty

Barry has been featured on all the major late night talk shows, has appeared in the shows "Flight of the Conchords," "Lucky Louis," "Sex & the City" and "Sesame Street" and has lent his voice to a number of animated shows.

The Big Bang Theory

Over the past few years, CBS’ “The Big Bang Theory” has become one of the highest rated comedies on television. The show centers around Leonard and Sheldon, two brilliant physicists with very poor social skills. This begins to change when a beautiful girl moves next door and befriends the two geeks. Actor Jim Parsons portrays Sheldon, the geekier and more socially awkward of the two. He’s also become the character the majority of the comedy is centered around. Parsons was recently nominated for an Emmy for his work on the show, which airs Monday nights at 9:30 ET on CBS.

Jeff Foxworthy is one of the most respected and successful comedians in the country. He is the largest selling comedy-recording artist in history, a multiple Grammy Award nominee and best selling author of 11 books. Widely known for his redneck jokes, his act goes well beyond that to explore the humor in everyday family interactions and human nature, a style that has been compared to Mark Twain’s. Currently Jeff still hosting his hit game show, "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader," the only show that proves how little you actually payed attention in class. He is also releasing his newest children's book Hide!!!.

Ferguson, Craig

Fri, 18 Sep 2009 06:29:37 -0800

Much Earlier With Craig Ferguson

When Craig Ferguson was chosen to take over the reins of "The Late Late Show," the last thing most critics expected was for this "Drew Carey Show" star to out-perform the previous hosts, but that's exactly what he's done. But this came as no surprise to the Scotland native, Ferguson has been excelling at every form of entertainment he's attempted. An author, filmmaker, actor and musician, Ferguson has done it all. Now, even while filming nightly episodes of his popular late-night talk show, Craig is on the road performing standup comedy across the country. It's the same great comedy you've grown to love without the annoying commercial breaks.

FACTOID - The majority of Craig Ferguson's opening monologue on The Late Late Show is improvised.

The Mentalist

Simon Baker didn’t spend much time away from the small screen after his CBS series “The Guardian” came to an end after it’s four year run. In fact, he soon found himself back on the ‘Eye Network’ in another hit crime drama, this time portraying independent crime scene consultant Patrick Jane on “The Mentalist.” On the show, Jane is almost as notorious for his blatant lack of protocol as he is for his razor sharp skills of observation. Baker is no stranger to the big screen either, as he’s starred in a number of blockbuster films including L.A. Confidential and The Devil Wears Prada. The Mentalist has already earned Baker a Golden Globe Award for Best Lead Actor in a Drama Series, and has become one of the highest rated shows on television. The First season is now available on DVD and the second season premieres Thursday, Sept 24 on CBS.

If you haven’t heard of Larry the Cable Guy, you’ve obviously been dead for the past few years because the man is everywhere. Even if you’ve been living in a cave in some remote part of the world, we’re pretty sure you could buy Larry the Cable Guy merchandise there. From best selling books, to DVDs and CDs, the man has been a machine and only seems to be getting more popular. And though Larry continues to tour the country, not everyone has the opportunity to see him perform which is why he decided to release his most recent comedy special, Tailgate Party, on CD. Just in time for the Super Bowl!

Though he began his career as a dry, sarcastic correspondent on "The Daily Show," it was his role as Michael Scott, the obnoxious and highly unprofessional regional manager on NBC's "The Office," that launched Steve Carell into super-stardom. But his comedic talents aren't exclusive to the small screen, Carell has become one of Hollywood's most sought after comedic actors after starring in a string of blockbusters including The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Dan in Real Life, Evan Almighty, Get Smart, and Little Miss Sunshine. Steve is currently teaming up with frequent co-star and fellow actor Paul Rudd in the new film Dinner for Schmucks in theaters now.

After only four years in the business, Tom Papa got a huge break in the comedy would by landing his first half-hour special on Comedy Central. Then, an even bigger break cam when Jerry Seinfeld picked him to be his opening act for his tour. These breakthroughs have helped Papa grow in the world of both stand-up and Hollywood.

You wouldn't know it these days, but comedian David Alan Grier actually got his start in show business as a dramatic theater actor. That all changed after meeting up with Keenan Ivory Wayans and starring in a couple of cult films and the hit TV sketch comedy show, "In Living Color." From there, Grier went on to appear in a number of sitcoms including "DAG," "Life With Bonnie" and "My Wife and Kids," and he began writing and performing standup comedy. Along with touring clubs around the country, Grier’s standup was also featured on Comedy Central as the host of "Premium Blend." He’s also hosted the shows "Chocolate News" and "Thank God You’re Here," returned to theater acting, and will appear in the films Hoodwinked Too and Something Like Business.

Individually they are Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter and Erik Stolhanske but together they form the filmmaking comedy team Broken Lizard, the men responsible for the films Super Troopers and Beerfest. The guys formed Broken Lizard over a decade ago while attending school at Colgate University. After graduating, they took their act to New York where they soon found themselves in the movie making business, writing and directing their first film, Puddle Cruisers. That film went on to a number of festivals, but it was their second film Super Troopers that really put them on the map, making $20 Million at the box office and selling over 5 million copies on DVD. The guys are currently putting the finishing touches on their newest movie, The Slammin’ Salmon, and touring the country with a live stage show.

After graduating college, J.D. Shapiro headed for LA with $900 and a head full of dreams. Knowing that wasn’t going to get him very far, he also brought along a spec script he wrote called Robin Hood: Men in Tights. This little script was discovered by comedy film giant Mel Brooks and the rest is history. Shapiro has since gone on to write a number of other films including We Married Margo (which helped him become friends with George Lucas). Along with writing, Shapiro is also an actor, the author of The Truth About Men and an accomplished stand-up comedian.

In 1984, the world was introduced to the heavy metal rock band Spinal Tap in the Rob Reiner mocumentary film This is Spinal Tap. The movie has not only become one of the most beloved comedies of all time, the music has taken on a life of it’s own. So much so that actors Michael McKean, Christopher Guest and Harry Shearer who portrayed David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel and Derek Smalls respectively have occasionally headed out on tour to perform as Spinal Tap. This summer, the three band members decided to head out again, only this time, they were going to do it as themselves as opposed to their heavy metal alter egos. In their new project Unwigged and Unplugged, Guest, McKean and Shearer perform the songs of Spinal Tap and The Folksmen (from A Mighty Wind) as themselves. Actor Harry Shearer is also famous for the many residents of Springfield he portrays on “The Simpsons” including Principal Skinner, Mr. Burns, Mr. Smithers and Kent Brockman. He's was also a writer and a star of “Saturday Night Live,” and was featured in the films A Mighty Wind, For Your Consideration, The Truman Show and Godzilla. And if that's not enough, he's also the best selling author of three books and released a solo music project titled Songs Pointed and Pointless.

My Weakness is Strong

Patton Oswalt first hit the nation scene after landing a reoccurring role on the sitcom "The King of Queens," but his true love is actually stand-up comedy. As a self professed ‘geek,’ Oswalt’s isn't shy about focusing on some of the nerdier aspects of life such as comic books and 80’s hair-metal bands. But don't think this means he doesn't tackle the more cerebral issues like politics and American society in general because, well, he does. A few years ago, Oswalt was heading up what turned out to be a huge nationwide comedy tour known as The Comedians of Comedy, which is now available on DVD. This tour helped launch the career of some of our new favorite comedians including Maria Bamford. You may also recognize Patton's voice as "Remy" from the Pixar animated film Ratatouille. Speaking of films, Patton is starring in a brand new film by the writer of The Wrestler titled The Big Fan, and his new comedy central special "My Weakness is Strong."

Since earning his diploma (we're assuming you you do in fact get a diploma), he’s built a career touring the world, headlining comedy clubs over 200 nights a year and dispensing his brand of physical facial expressions, witty, off-the-wall observations and upbeat, fast paced, improvisational comedy. In addition to his work on stage, Barnhart is also an accomplished actor and director. Along with a couple of national commercial spots, Barnhart wrote, starred and directed the movie China Dolls. He's also been seen in the films Species, In the Army Now and Apollo 13.

Joel McHale has the type of job most of us would love to have. He spends the week watching television, then picks the funniest, most outrageous, and completely mindless clips to show us each week on his show "The Soup," (not to be confused with it’s predecessor, "Talk Soup") On the show, Joel skewers talk shows, reality TV, morning shows, and idiotic celebrities while at the same time poking fun at all things pop culture. When not in front of his television or the studio camera, Joel still finds time to perform stand-up comedy around the country. He’s also becoming quite the actor, having appeared on the shows "Pushing Daisies" and "CSI: Miami," and in the films The Onion Movie, Lords of Dogtown and in the hit sitcom, Community with Chevy Chase which airs at 8 p.m. every Thursday on NBC.

Before being approached for the film Sideways, Thomas Haden Church had pretty much retired from acting and was content to live and work on his ranch in Texas. But after taking the part, he was thrust back into the spotlight when he was nominated for an Academy Award for his role in the film. Since then, Church has gone on to star as Sandman in Spider-Man 3, won an Emmy for his role in the TV movie "Broken Trail" and has become the new voice of VW television ads. Church is also starring in the new Eddie Murphy film Imagine That, which opens this Friday in theaters everywhere.

It was over a decade ago that Bill Engvall first became famous for his “Here’s Your Sign,” standup routine, and though that phrase helped launch into pop culture, it still can't compare with the fame that came from being part of the fab four known as The Blue Collar Comedy Tour. Then, after dabbling in film with Larry the Cable guy in Delta Farce, Bill returned to TV in his very own TBS sitcom, "The Bill Engvall Show". In other news, Bill recently released a brand new CD, Aged and Confused, and will be debuting a comedy special by the same name Sunday, November 21 on Comedy Central.

From an early age, Joe Rogan knew he wanted to do two things, make people laugh and kick some ass. Over the past twenty years, he's become a black belt in both. At age 19, Rogan won the US Open Tae Kwon Do Championship. This helped pave the way for his current career working in Mixed Martial Arts as the color commentator for the Ultimate Fighting Championship. On the comedic side, Rogan might be best well known for his work as the host of the NBC reality show "Fear Factor" or from the sitcom "NewsRadio." As a stand-up, Joe starred in a brand new comedy special onSpike TV and occasionally hits the clubs when he's on the road.

Penn Jillette is the larger, more audible half of the famous duo Penn & Teller. For over 30 years, they've entertained audiences with magic, comedy and anything else they set their twisted minds to. With a deep booming voice, clown college education and expertise in juggling, Penn has become the showman of the group, and perfectly compliments Teller’s silent style of magic. Together Penn & Teller have become one of Vegas' most attended shows and have also popped up in a number films, TV series and specials. Currently, Penn & Teller star in the Showtime award winning series "Bullsh*t," a show that exposes the frauds and fakes behind things like talking to the dead, alien abductions and feng shui. The new season of "Bullsh*t" begins this Thursday at 10 PM on Showtime.

There are two things you can count on whenever Ralph Harris takes the stage, one this that you're going to have a good time, the other is that he's probably close to or is already engaged to be married. "A Tonight Show" veteran and finalist on "Last Comic Standing," Harris isn't your typical stand-up comedian because he does much more than tell jokes on stage, he acts them out. During his performances, he's constantly developing and transforming himself into new and interesting characters so that when he starts reliving his childhood memories he doesn't just talk about his relatives, he becomes them. Ralph's natural chameleon-like ability has helped him land a few roles in hit films like Dreamgirls and Evan Almighty

From best selling books, to DVDs and CDs, the man has been a machine and only seems to be getting more popular. And though Larry continues to tour the country, not every has been able to watch him perform live, that is, until now. To celebrate Independence Day, Larry is turning his "4th of July Tailgate Party" in LIncoln, NE into a digital download you can purchase immediately after the show.

Living the High Life

Though people love television programs, it seems more and more that the water cooler discussions about TV revolve around commercials. Even the Super Bowl, which is the most watched show of the year, is often trumped by the ads that run between breaks in the game. And while the most companies have made major strides in creating memorable and humorous ads, the kings of the genre are the beer companies. These brewers of booze are responsible for some of the most beloved ad campaigns in history, and somehow they still manage to come up with new and original spots. One such ongoing series involves the removal of Miller High Life from establishments that are deemed unworthy of selling the product. Actor Windell D. Middlebrooks portrays the Miller delivery guy who’s on a mission to make sure only places that promote living the high life are allowed to serve it.
