Last Comic Not Pictured: Reflections from Top 100 #LastComic Season 8 contestant Erin Judge

Last Comic Not Pictured: Reflections from Top 100 #LastComic Season 8 contestant Erin Judge

Posted by | Jun 6, 2014 | , |

As I was live-blogging last night’s final installment of “The Invitational” rounds for the Top 100 on season 8 of Last Comic Standing, the math kept nagging at me. I mean, I knew after the two-hour premiere a couple of weeks ago, when they showed 31 comedians, that it’d take so many more weeks to even show partial stand-up sets from each and every one of the Top 100. Which they didn’t do. I tried to make sense of it all, including the peculiar production packages that are being shown online and not on TV, and how that might...

Joe List likes to worry. Fortunately, he only has to joke about worrying because this set on Thursday night’s Late Show with David Letterman is fantastic. The kind of set that puts hair on his chest, drops a few pounds on the scale and makes him smile a big smile. Plus, List makes a really solid point about how meditation might not have been the cure for what stresses him out. Instead, just give him more TV credits. That’ll do the trick! That and a power nap. Rest in peace, Joe! Roll the...
