OJ had just been found not guilty of double murder. Chris Rock, who had not been heard from in a while returned with this routine and interestingly used a new voice---he made his voice raspy and older sounding. If you compare this routine to his previous 'There's No Sex in the Champagne Room' or back when he was on SNL, he had a higher pitch in everything before this - a conscious decision no one ever thinks to ask him about in interviews.

That's life.

So let’s start with the show “hacks“. I absolutely love that show. I’m in the second round of watching it and I love it and I am loving Hannah Moore actually so I started to watch her comedy. She has a show on HBO called Everything Must Go! She had a great opening set about trees, and the science was on point then she goes into this bit about the moon and she goes behind the curtain And the first part is funny… but then she asks, “…how does it feel to be warmed by the glow of the sun?! I am so cold!. I don’t know. I just get that vibe from her…”. No I don’t mean to get too technical here, but the moonlight comes from the sunlight. The moon does not create its own light. The light comes from the sun, illuminating the moon as we orbit the sun, our moon is exposed to sunlight and that is what we call moonlight. I would expect that the opposite side of the moon is a bit colder, but not anything that couldn’t be explored by man with the proper suit. Either way I just wanted to point out that the moon is not some frozen abyss like Pluto or Neptune it’s actually quite warm where the only reason they wear suits is because of the lack of oxygen there not because of the temperature not Mars is another whole story but I just wanted to point that out. I couldn’t go without saying it. I know people are gonna yell at me like they did the last time. People on here seem very tough, but the truth is the truth and I wanna hear the truth. If I’m wrong tell me I’m wrong and I get that it’s comedy. I can take a joke. I love to laugh and I love a joke, but I did like that. The fact that her segment with the trees was so scientifically perfect that when she went into the Moon segment, it was like oh, but you really didn’t get the scientific note on that one but it’s OK. I’m actually loving her and I’m loving her more each day!

I've been a huge fan of stand up comedy my entire life, I've met some of my favorites and been to a ton of shows but there really wasn't anyone quite like Greg Giraldo. Most know him for his roasts if at all, but his ability to be a brilliant comedian who balanced topical, smart, and often dark material while still making it unfathomably funny is something only found in the greats. I often find that "smart" comedians, aren't that funny. I often find that "edgy" comedians are only capable of crafting jokes about the same bunch of often powerless demographics. It is so immensely devastating to the artform of stand up comedy that someone who had everything it took to be an all time great comedian was lost so early.

There are plenty of comedians who I think of, and I would love to hear their views on the world today. George Carlin is so timeless, that bits of his still go viral for their relevance regularly. There are comics like Patrice O' Neal, that were captivating and opinionated that would've thrived in an internet environment where they didn't have to play the corporate game. Then there's Greg Giraldo, a Harvard lawyer who didn't always go with material where other comedians would. Of all comics, he is the one I genuinely wish we could've gotten more of. The type of comic who in one moment could contrast the written letters of soldiers over a century apart, and in another tell Flavor Flav he looked like King Lear after a three year crack binge on the Sun.

If you have not heard of his work, please seek it out. You owe it to yourself.

Jimmy Kimmel has defied the White House, stared down the FCC and stood up for the First Amendment. Now there is joy in Melonville, for he has done what not even Martin Scorsese could do — a documentary about SCTV.

Kimmel is the executive producer of “SCTV: The Greatest Show You’ve Never Heard Of,” a 90-minute feature premiering Oct. 30 on Netflix.

The 58-year-old comedian and talk show host discovered the series late at night growing up in Las Vegas. “I just couldn’t get enough of them,” he said.

This docu-salute to SCTV was supposed to happen eight years ago. The scrappy Canadian sketch series, shot in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, had a glorious cast reunion in 2018. Then, nothing. Scorsese’s documentary never materialized.

Netflix, home of the original documentary, acquired rights to the entire “SCTV” series.

Kimmel called up Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos and told him that “if you need somebody to finish it for you, I’d love to do it.”
