Of course Casey Anthony is innocent. If she's guilty of anything... It's killing her baby.


He showed me a picture of Caylee Anthony, before... You know... In obviously happier times.

Pretty solid special. I like Jeselnik and the whole "pretentious a-hole" persona. I liked a lot of his jokes. I like how consistent he is, where his persona and delivery almost never change.

My friend Jeff is gay.....I think....I'm really bad with names.

I like to prank my gf sometimes. Last week I put seran wrap on the toilet. I know that doesn't sound very creative or anything......but she's bulimic.

Him and Bobby Lee were great on the last episode of Jeff Ross' show.

I got a few laughs, mostly just thinking about how offended people would get at his jokes. Overall though it was kind of meh, IMO his shtick is better on the roast circuit or where he can channel his material at individuals. You saw it last night when addressing audience members, he's very good on his feet.

Since there are really only 2 types of new shows Comedy Central is putting out nowadays, I'm going to guess that he'll be commenting on recent news and pop culture, just like Jeff Ross is doing now. And like Amy Shumer will be doing soon.

If he had a sketch background it would be a sketch show, like Nick Kroll is about to do.

It will surely suck.

Any up and coming or semi-established comic gets a shot at their own CC show. Trying to strike Chapelle's Show gold again.

I like Kroll on the league, but there is no way in hell I will watch his show.


Back to Jeselnik, I'd rather see him just do standup and roasts... Getting his own show is going to ruin him.

i'll have to check it out i totally missed it.

i always liked:

"you don't know anything about pain. you don't anything about pain until you've watched a child drown in your bathtub. and you definitely don't anything...about how to wash a baby."

yeah i thought it was a solid set. there were a bunch of times where it was blatantly obvious were it would go. but then on the next 5 jokes, youd be like "oh this is so predictable" and it would be absolutely off the wall.

Thought the same thing last night. but I find that even when it's predictable, the delivery still makes me laugh.

A few of those audience-related jokes were built into his act. He wasn't doing a whole lot of thinking on his feet.

Schumer's show is sketch comedy.

Also, Jeselnik went to Tulane.
