Jim Gaffigan is a seasoned comedian with a super-dry wit and self-debasing humor that leaves little room for breath in between long fits of laughing. If previous performances are any indication, he starts his sets with a solid five minutes of joke after joke in quick continuous shots that give you just enough time to process the funny before he hits you with the next one. He was a supporting character in the TBS hit My Boys and has roles in several current and upcoming movies, including the (surprisingly funny) "Going the Distance", "It's Kind of a Funny Story", and "Salvation Boulevard". However, his true essence lies in his comedic timing and subtly that just doesn't show when he's reading lines in a television show or movie. You need to experience it first hand in all its semi-spontaneous glory. So check out his live comedy set at the Paramount Theater this Friday and Saturday, you won't be sorry... unless you decide to heckle him.

An Interview with Bob Saget: Tonight at the Moore
To say Bob Saget is full of surprises may be one of the most extreme understatements we’ve ever typed. ... [w]hat surprised us when we got to speak to Bob by phone earlier this week was that he’s a surprisingly genuine person. Through our discussion about show business in general and his nontraditional career, the man who we had convinced ourselves we would hardly be able to stand endeared himself to us entirely through his outlook and take on life which seems to fall somewhere between the teachings of Buddha, Norman Vincent Peale, Don Rickles and his father.
We encourage you to read our interview with Bob below and recommend checking out his show at the Moore tonight if it sounds like something you’d be into.
An Interview with Comedian Mike Birbiglia
As one of the funniest young comedians on the circuit, Mike Birbiglia has already seen tremendous success on stage and screen. There's a good chance you've seen one of his specials on Comedy Central, seen one of his late night appearances or seen his jokes as animations on the Internet. If you've yet to see Mike on screen, it's likely you've heard his voice on the Ira Glass' legendary modern radio series, This American Life. To top it off, Mike just finished the first run of his highly acclaimed Off-Broadway one-man show titled "Sleepwalk with Me," which humorously details his unpredictable and occasionally violent sleep disorder.
