Happy summer everyone. I've been sweating it out on the streets of Brooklyn shooting They Came Together along with producer/co-writer Michael Showalter and an amazing cast led by Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler. More on that soon.

Meanwhile - August is coming which means Wet Hot American Summer outdoor screenings all over the place (11 years in!).
The biggest hometown one happens this Thurs, Aug 2nd in Brooklyn Bridge Park. DJ Conquerrah spins starting 6pm, and movie begins at sunset. We're actually shooting that night, but if there's any way we can make it, we'll be there.
There's also one at Hollywood Forever in L.A. August 18th.

If you haven't been watching Comedy Bang! Bang! you are missing one of the funniest new shows on TV right now. An off-shoot of Scott Aukerman's live show & podcast, the TV show makes me laugh week after week - to me it's something like Space Ghost Coast to Coast mixed with early David Letterman. I am honored to appear on the current episode (with Elizabeth Banks) as bitter TV critic Gordon Thatchet. More here.
The Childrens Hospital Complete Season 3 DVD is out. 14 earth shattering episodes chronicling the dramas and sex lives of doctors played by Rob Corddry, Malin Akerman, Lake Bell, Erinn Hayes, Rob Huebel, Ken Marino, Megan Mullally, Zandy Hartig and Henry Winkler, along with a boat load of guest stars (including me returning both as Rabbi Jewy McJewJew and as myself.) If you don't believe me, here's a review from BlogCritics. If you don't believe reviews - how about the fact that we are nominated for an EMMY AWARD?! Order from Amazon
