Due to be released September 11, “Comics On Duty, We Love You Mrs. Bevins” features Danny Bevins, Sarah Tiana, Dave Mishevitz and John Bizarre on a tour of Iraq, entertaining the troupes.
Reminds us of a similar effort by Jeffery Ross from two years ago, the superb “Patriot Act,” which depicted Ross and others on tour with Drew Carey.
What’s happened to the network TV specials depicting these tours? Bob Hope’s were among the most highly rated of all work (or at least fondly remembered). We bet that the nets would find that contemporary shows would garner similarly high numbers.
The DVD is a production of High 5 Records, ” the ultimate vision of the founder of an international chain of comedy clubs opened and operated in five countries and throughout the Caribbean.” Mwaa ha ha ha haaaa! Sounds like some sort of Bond villain who intends to change the rotation of the earth through comedy to melt the polar icecaps and corner the inter-galactic spring water market!
