LCS UPDATE: Pete Dominick turns down LCS

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on June 18th, 2007

Someone wrote to us and asked why the producers of the program didn’t show Pete Dominick advancing to the next round. He was shown, however, on the premiere episode, during the Gotham tryouts. In fact, he was the first one chosen to advance, the first comic awarded the Red Ticket. But, mysteriously, the part where Dominick got his ticket was not in the final edit.

Turns out Dominick was asked, as a condition of his promotion to the Hollywood portion of the competition, to give up his two daily Sirius Satellite Radio shows. Dominick weighed the pros and cons and decided to keep the radio gig and forego the network television exposure.

Both shows are on the Raw Dog comedy channel. Comedy By Request airs weekdays, noon to 1. Getting Late airs weekdays at 11:15 PM.
