For yous near LA. It looks like Paul F. Tompkins and Mary Lynn Rajskub of Mr. show are gonna be on a new TV improv show call 'the sketch show' hosted by FancyPants Kelsey Grammar.

Below is a site to get tickets to goto a show hosted by Grammar, but that show is call 'world cup of comedy.' Not sure if they are the same thing?

Btw, why is Grammar associated with improv now? I would rather watch Chris Walken Cook.

Thanks for that. I don't think The Sketch Show (http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-28444/) is going to be improvised, it'll be your regular sketch show much like the one shown in England a couple years ago (same people behind it) where it was just 30 minutes of sketches with no gaps inbetween and no links. We'll just have to wait and see if it's any good I guess, there's no info about who's actually writing for it so it could go either way.

As for that World Cup Comedy thing..well your guess is as good as mine. There's a bit of information here (http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-27141/). Doesn't sound all that promising if you ask me. There was a British show called World Cup Comedy on a few years ago, doubt it has any connection, just a strange coincidence.

Look at the lame throw-in black guy with the pimp jacket. Aren't there enough black people on TV all ready? Why the need to just arbitrarily toss them in where they don't belong?

See what I mean? I didn't want a black guy in my reply. This Equal Oppurtunity shit has gone too far!
