The Wrong Way to Sell (Neil) Hamburger?
Filed Under Stand-Up Comedy
All comedy is comedy, right? So we can put some aggressively cheerful girl out on the street and have her interview Neil Hamburger fans waiting in line to see his show and it’ll be web gold! Warning: This is car wreck viewing.
Of course, this might be genius. After all, uncomfortable moments like these are very much the definition of funny unfunny. But I’m probably being too charitable.
By a mile.
I can’t leave you with that above. So here’s the Courtney Love / Cranberry Sauce routine loved by so many of those fans above. But with Hamburger drawing it for an inordinately painfully funny long, long period of time.
This is awful, simply awful. I have nothing more to say.
