Mention on Colbert’s Late Show

Dana Carvey was on Stephen Colbert’s Late Show on CBS last night. They were discussing the documentary Too Funny To Fail, which is currently on Hulu. It’s about the Dana Carvey Show, a short-lived sketch show on ABC in ’96. I was a writer and performer on the show and I was honored to be mentioned as part of the “murderer’s row” of comedy talent on this cult favorite. Click HERE to see it!

I haven’t run into either of these guys in years, but they’re always incredibly kind when I do. They were so nice to include my name among all the other comedy talent that has come out of this show. Watch both The Dana Carvey Show and Too Funny to Fail on Hulu now!

Do you have any favorite sketches from that show? Would you like to see a reunion? Let’s hear about it!

Cartoon Mailman!

This week’s episode of This is Us was recommended in Entertainment Weekly. Their Deja View capsule reminds us that there is so much more to know about the Mailman. It also features a pretty sweet cartoon rendering of me.

To see some of my thoughts on my original appearance, read 5 Things the Mailman Hears.  Click HERE to let NBC know that you want to see more mailman. You can also call (212) 664-2333 and let them know there, too!

Make your mailman happy! Write it on a postcard so he can read it, and send it “snail mail” to: This is US c/o NBC 30 Rockefeller Plaza New York, NY – 10112

Another email never hurts! Since this episode first aired, some cool things have happened, including an article on HuffPost and Buzz Feed and I was honored to be interviewed by the US Postal Service for their national newsletter, LINK. You can read more about that HERE!

Okay, I know it’s Oscar time. In the scheme of things this isn’t groundbreaking entertainment news, but it feels really good today to see a cartoon of myself in Entertainment Weekly.

(EDIT: I originally thought that “Deja View” meant that they would be re-running my episode before the final episodes. Turns out that’s not the case, so I changed the title of this blog post. Not sure what EW’s cryptic post meant and why I was featured. Do you?)
