Ricky Gervais Lullaby to Elmo

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc20vMz0V7Q&feature=player_embedded] Watch this funny segment on Sesame Street where comedy genius Ricky Gervais sings a lullaby to help Elmo fall asleep. Too bad it isn't quite the sort of lullaby Elmo was expecting. It's old but Ricky Gervais'  "No one recognizes me as a celebrity but I actually am not only a celebrity, but if you listen between the lines of what I'm passive aggressively saying, I'm a mega-celebrity who is also quite filthy rich" shtick never fails to make me laugh.

John Stewart Interviews George Carlin

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzmD9GEpdTw] I really enjoyed this interview from days of old of a young non-grey hair Jon Stewart talking with George Carlin. Does anyone tell a better story than George Carlin? I submit that no one can. I bet George woulda had something really good and hilariously insightful to say about 2009.

The Fall and Rise of Alec Baldwin

Alec Baldwin's take on the ups and downs of his career.

"I made films from about ‘86 until ‘99. And then things started to really wind down. When your fortunes ebb in the movie business, it’s like The Sixth Sense: You’re dead and you don’t know it."

Who would have thought back in 1990 after seeing The Hunt for Red October that that Jack Ryan would be a star today, not as an action hero, but as hilariously caustic Jack Donaghy? Not I said the fly.
