Tomorrow (Sunday) night at 7 PM EDT, from the official Star TV synopsis:
Star! goes behind the scenes at the 2005 Just for Laughs comedy festival. Stephen Colbert and producer Ben Karlin reveal some of the secrets of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. One of Canada’s funniest exports “Harland Williams” talks to us about returning to the festival after a three year absence and gives us a gift. We also sit down with Penn Jillette and Paul Provenza and discuss their controversial film The Aristocrats. The authors of He’s Just Not That Into You” , Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo explain how the best seller was breaking up relationships before it even hit the shelves.
FOS Johnson sent us a videotape of this very show from a couple years back and we found it very enjoyable. (We’re still mystified as to why Harland’s name is in quotes. Perhaps it’s a Harland Williams impersonator.) In an earlier post, we proclaimed the Star! coverage to be the next best thing to reading SHECKYmagazine coverage of the fest. A distant second, but enlightening nonetheless!
