Good Humor Men, minus the ice cream novelties

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on January 5th, 2005

We stumbled across an article from a small newspaper in Monroe, WI, heralding the impending arrival in town of The Good Humor Men– a show starring three of the (at least) seven members of a consortium of comedians who, comibined, have 56 appearances on The Tonight Show. Curious, we located the website for the consortium and, near as we can tell, it was lashed together by Pat Hazell, identified as a former Seinfeld writer and a comedian. (We seem to recall Hazell appearing on one of the first Rodney HBO specials way back when.) Not a bad idea, really– assemble a bunch of clean, experienced comedians with multiple TV credits, all of which (we assume) are geographically concentrated (in L.A., we assume) and, in your leisure time, sell the package (as “HaHaPalooza”) and wait for the phone to ring. From a cursory inspection of the website, it seems that one of the comics (probably Hazell himself), is doing the booking (the agent is listed as “Mike Stand” Har, har har!), so you don’t have that pesky 15 or 20 per cent chunk taken out of each and every check. We salute Hazell’s initiative.
