  1. What is everyone thinking of changing their name to?

    I really don't want to do this, but it's a pretty clear directive. Maybe I'll be Ogiv Aisatsana. Or Bart Simpson.

    I sign in with facebook so I'm not sure I can even do this, short of changing my facebook name and confusing my friends and family. Which wouldn't be a problem if I wasn't going to change my name to Mr. J.C. Friendsandfamilyhater.

     

    Also my day at worked has sucked too but you lovely Hollydub Hand-B's have made my day brighter as always.

  2. Here is the Billy Crystal "Robin Williams in Heaven" garbage they mention on the show. It has to be read to understand how horrible it is.

     

    http://popwatch.ew.c...-billy-crystal/

    That's literally like a bit from CBBTV or something. Here's a little teaser, for those of you unsure if you want to take the plunge:

     

    DON PARDO (V.O.): Please welcome to the Big Room making his heavenly debut, Robin Williams!

     

    Huge ovation from the enormous crowd that seems to go on forever. A spotlight finds Robin as he enters. He strikes many poses as he runs across the stage at times grabbing himself. He looks at the enormous crowd…

     

    ROBIN: Oh my, please stop hovering and sit down! Amazing, it’s Woodstock with wings! (in a child’s voice) I don’t think I’m in Kansas anymore! (as John Wayne) Well, Pilgrims, as the frontier gynecologist said to the pretty lady, “You got a nice spread.”… Please don’t be afraid.

     

    Crowd is already his. He roams the stage looking at the folks sitting ringside.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): (as Bob Hope) This is wild…you kids here with the wings and the halos…this is like Da Nang meets Lady Gaga! (now in his own voice) Look at all of you, who’s that sitting in the balcony? Oh, Mr. Lincoln?

     

    Abraham Lincoln, sitting in an opera box, smiles and waves.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): Wanna know how the play ended? Spoiler alert, spoiler alert!

     

    Lincoln doubles over, the crowd roars.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): Oh my, he’s sitting with Lena Horne! Honest, Abe, (quickly) I know cheap but effective, you did pretty good for yourself, first the penny, now Ms. Horne, (singing) “Stormy Weather”… wow, you are so beautiful… (grabbing himself) The Emancipation Ejaculation. Don’t be afraid, so this is heaven?

     

    VOICE: Well, it sure ain’t Iowa!

     

    Big laugh from the audience. Robin peers through the spotlight.

     

    ROBIN: Oh my, is that Burt Lancaster?

     

    He rushes over and shakes Burt’s extended hand.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): Man, when Burt Lancaster gets laughs it must be heaven…I know what you’re thinking, Burt, but Kirk isn’t ready yet. What a night, how much money have we raised so far???

     

    He moves around the stage searching the crowd. He finds a stoic-looking couple.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): Oh, sad faces, there’s always a few. Let me guess: comedy development at CBS? I know you’re not the Rosenbergs.

     

    Big laugh as he moves on and finds a young girl.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): OH MY GOD. You’re…

     

    GIRL: Anne Frank.

     

    Applause

     

    ROBIN: Good to get out, isn’t it? Anne, is it true that being Jews, on Sunday nights you would get Chinese food…takeout? (whispering as Otto Frank making a phone call with a German accent) Yes, kung pao chicken, spare ribs, and fried rice for eight…and leave it by the bookcase…

     

    Huge laugh: He reaches out to her, they hold hands for a second, and she blows him a kiss. He moves on to a white-haired man.

     

    ROBIN (CONT’D): Oh no, it can’t be…you are my hero. Greatest mind of the 20th century and I can’t remember your name…

     

    Big laugh, he’s rolling…

     

    MAN: Albert Einstein.

     

    ROBIN: Al, wanna know my theory of relativity? Never lend relatives money ’cause you won’t get it back.

     

    They shake hands as Einstein laughs and shakes his head as if to say, “He’s right.” Robin is in the audience now, someone comes up behind him, puts his hands over his eyes...

  3. I really like this episode too. The main difference with this kind of improv is that the improviser is playing the game of the scene while playing whatever their character's game is.

    Hoping word gets out on this episode to start i4h with a bang for the new year.

    Ahhh thanks for this. I got that the characters were developing over the different episodes but I'm not sure this was clear to me. Me and my friends were on a road trip yesterday and I played the Best of Music and 420 Special eps. They're both hooked now
