    Awesome. I particularly enjoyed Sunday Detective Film Theatre.

    "The Bomb" is up. "Date Rant" will be soon.

    "Awesome. I particularly enjoyed Sunday Detective Film Theatre."

    Thanks. I'd love to finish the rest of these some day. We shot a second one (Fairchild and Wife, with Paget Brewster), but I believe it's still un-edited and collecting dust in Jon Schnepp's computer.

    Actually, only the first half of The Bomb is up. Sorry, we'll get the rest up there soon.

    Just out of curiousity, is the ending to "The Bomb" supposed to be so abrupt? It ends at 5:11, right?

    The rest of it should be up tomorrow. Capt. Breakfast is a great name, by the way. That's a show I would watch or a cereal I would eat.

    Ah, it's from Sesame Street. The statement stands.

    Thank you for the compliment. Also, I am very saddened to find that me and sesame street had a parallel thought. Still, thank you for revealing that to me.

    "Date Rant" is up (see above). Still waiting on "The Bomb".

    Can you talk about how Paget Brewster got involved with the LA comedy scene? I would have never guessed it, but she seems to pop up everywhere doing little bits with cool people. Did she get her start doing stand-up?

    Jay and Paget were dating at the time of production. As far as I know, she's never done stand-up. Prior to that, I know she had a talk show in San Francisco.

    Still waiting on the full version of the Bomb to be uploaded. The nice folks at ucbcomedy.com have assured me it will be soon.

    The full Bomb is up. See above.
