SHRED IS THE NEW MEH! HAHA

Jim Biederman ("Whitest Kids U Know," "I'm With Busey")
Yikes. I watched an episode of the Whitest Kids once and it was one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. I'd rather watch a 24 hour Webster marathon than sit through 10 minutes of that again.

I wonder if Showalter will do the same stand-up bit's he's been doing for the past 3 years in a row?

These guys just aren't funny

cool, sounds like Michael and Michael aren't cool anymore.. Should make the show much more enjoyable.
Posted by Anonymous | June 8, 2009 3:57 PM
Michael Ian Black is the hottest piece I know.
Posted by Anonymous | June 8, 2009 4:04 PM
These guys aren't funny, never have been, never will be. Stella sucks a huge one.

Jeeeez...everyone who leaves comments on this site just hates everything so much all the time.
Posted by Anonymous | June 8, 2009 4:47 PM
the state is great. wet hot american summer is great. stella is great. their standup is great. this show will be great.
Posted by Anonymous | June 8, 2009 4:50 PM
when is that 24 hour webster marathon?!
Posted by Anonymous | June 8, 2009 5:19 PM
The state was funny. The new show Stella is not whatsoever.
Posted by Anonymous | June 8, 2009 5:24 PM
Stella is my favorite show. I hope this is just as good without david wain
Posted by nick | June 8, 2009 8:01 PM
showalter is one of the funniest live performers out there... his indie comedy is up there with other greats like zach galifiankis and daniel tosh-- two great comedians who are getting the right kind of attention. finally.
i feel like talent and opportunity are wasted on you new yok hipster, trash-talking, ask-mom-and-dad-for-money, i'm-the-shit-cos-i-diss-everything, twat stains.
showalter, black, tosh, galifiankis- come to dc or baltimore where you would be fkn appreciated.
bv, suck my long, left nut.

^so true.

Michael Showalter can be funny but it's true he sticks to the same routine. As do most comedians
Posted by Anonymous | June 9, 2009 3:43 PM
Stella is definitely a required taste, and by that I mean if you don't like Stella that probably means you're an idiot.
Posted by Anonymous | June 9, 2009 4:13 PM
The State was funny. These two guys are just trustafarian idiots. Not that funny and not worth the effort.
Can Showalter base a whole post-State career on just the NYU kiddies who have him in a class and are guilted into going to a show? Apparently, yes!

These two fellows have never made me laugh. Michael Ian Black needs to stick to his day job, which is making semi-funny comments on "I Love the 80s Strike Back."
Posted by John Stamos | July 26, 2009 2:00 PM
They were in The State. Thus, they get a pass for hit-and-miss recent efforts.

that portion of that last song was better than the other two combined.
eh... seeing Built to Spill that day, anyways
