John Mulaney's Parents Don't Make For A Great Date

​

​

Well, the Oscar nominees have come in and there’s pretty slim pickings in the world of comedy. I almost feel like I can’t count Woody Allen anymore in these situations because he’s an Academy darling pretty much anything he writes gets a nomination and this remains true for his latest, Midnight in Paris which pulled in Best Picture, Best Writing in an Original Screenplay, Art Direction, and Directing.

Bridesmaids, the great white shimmery-shiny hope to pull in some nominations did not fare well against the competition for best picture, and has to settle for two nominations for Best Original Screenplay for Kristen Wiig and her partner Annie Mumolo and Best Supporting Actress for Melissa McCarthy. Which to be honest would be pretty cool to see her follow up an Emmy with an Oscar win. But nothing else of note for the movie. One of these days, the right shitting in a sink joke will resonate with the Academy and comedy will get its due.

For me, the best nod in comedy overall has to go to Flight Of The Conchords’ Bret McKenzie who penned all the original music for The Muppets and earned a nomination for best Original Song for “Man or Muppet”.

Well it was only a matter of time before this happened but it doesn’t make it any less genius. Someone took to the popular review site Yelp and decided to start reviewing places in the character of Stefon, the popular Saturday Night Live character portrayed by Bill Hader.

This Yelp account has everything!

Hopefully somewhere Bill Hader and writer John Mulaney are grinning their asses off.

Here is another contender for a comedy show to compete with your Thursday night watching because [adult swim] just announced that the 3rd season on Jon Glaser’s
awesome show, Delocated!. The show about a family in the witness protection program that ends up moving to New York to participate in a reality TV show. But to keep their identity hidden from the Russian Mob they wear ski masks the entire time and had their voices digitally distorted.
