  3. Pauly Shore Interview With Shelli Harmon

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">Pauly Shore: Born into a life of comedy, Pauly Shore is seared into the public consciousness for his attention- grabbing comedic talents, and his meteoric rise to notoriety in the 1990&rsquo;s with starring roles in popular film comedies, acting-up as MTV &ldquo;VJ&rdquo; and show host, and performing his stand-up at national comedy clubs, including legendary venue The Comedy Store &ndash; where Pauly continues to work and perform. An entertainment career was virtually pre-ordained for Pauly Montgomery Shore. At age 4, he sat on the lap of The King himself in the company of his father, comedian Sammy Shore, who opened for Elvis during the early &rsquo;70s. Around the same time, Pauly&rsquo;s mother, Mitzi, and father opened The Comedy Store on Hollywood&rsquo;s Sunset Strip, giving their son the rare opportunity to hang out and be inspired by such rising talents as Robin Williams, David Letterman and the late Sam Kinison, who became Pauly&rsquo;s mentor. At 17, Pauly began writing and performing his own material, creating the persona of &ldquo;The Weizel,&rdquo; a character that quickly appealed to young audiences. In 1990, Pauly caught the attention of MTV and the network gave him his own show, TOTALLY PAULY. His initial success on television led to a three movie deal with Disney, beginning with the box-office hit ENCINO MAN, co-starring Sean Astin and Brendan Fraser. Pauly followed up ENCINO MAN with the popular comedies SON-IN-LAW, IN THE ARMY NOW, JURY DUTY and BIO-DOME. In 2003, Pauly produced, wrote, directed and starred in the critically acclaimed, PAULY SHORE IS DEAD, a semi-autobiographical mockumentary in which he satirizes the perils of Hollywood. <a href="http://laughcomedyclub.com/show.cfm?id=188879">See him at Laugh Comedy Club tonight(10/15/12. </a></span>

Through a friend of a family member, Brad was invited to visit South Park Studios in Culver City, California.

I&rsquo;m just one of the kids in the background. But, my name is in the credits, you know? And, I&rsquo;m floored. I can&rsquo;t believe I got to do that.&rdquo; Brad also shared some of his funniest stories with the writing staff. The episode featuring Brad&rsquo;s voice is reportedly scheduled to air tonight at 10PM Eastern on Comedy Central.</span>

  13. Three great sitcom sets for last-minute holiday shoppers

    I am going to use the excuse that it's Christmas next week and you may have some shopping left to do to review three DVD sets I have been meaning to write about for months. (Something came up.) All are comedies. Two are complete sets and one is the first installment in what will eventually be a complete set, if you buy enough of volume one to economically justify a volume two. Artistically, there is no question of justification: All are brilliant and a little strange: Two -- &quot;The Sarah Silverman Program" and Chris Elliott's "Get a Life" -- play with sitcom conventions; the other is plain unconventional.

    Amy Poehler has been a comedian of note for some time now &mdash; it's already 11 years since she joined the cast of &quot;Saturday Night Live" (and three and change since she left it), and before that there was "The Upright Citizens Brigade" on Comedy Central and appearances as Andy Richter's little sister, in braces and pigtails, on "Late Night With Conan O'Brien."

  21. The best of Chicago fringe theater in 2012

    Life on the fringe can be precarious, and this year three small Chicago theater companies with a combined 31 seasons among them decided to call it quits: BackStage Theatre and Caffeine Theatre (both on our best-of compilations in the past) and New Leaf Theatre, which bows out with its final production making our list this year. But the great thing about the rich Chicago theatrical loam is that it always encourages new companies and collaborations to take root. Every week, we cover the storefronts, lofts, basements, bars and all the other venues where the fringe is in full bloom. Below are some of the best shows we saw in 2012. Next week, we'll present some of our best bets for early 2013.
