Kroll Show

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

This lasted three seasons, which is pretty rare for Comedy Central.

It features Nick Kroll, Ruxin from The League, and a ton of other comedians in what I would describe as a series of skits tied together in a Seinfeld way. Other comedians are: John Daly, John Mulaney, Jenny Slate, Jason Mantzoukas (RAFI!), Seth Morris, ROn Funches, Chelsi Peretti (possibly the best female comic right now), Bill Burr (one of the top 3 comics today), etc.

There are 4-5 running story lines all set in different places, all mocking existing TV shows, and all featuring Kroll.

I would recommend this one if you have a weekend to kill and have access to them all.

I've seen the tail end of it before the Daily Show many times. And every time Nick Kroll has being doing some character that made me want to punch him. I can only presume that if I watched this I'd be constantly in the need to punch someone.

That's pretty much the point.

Remember, he's mocking TV.

Don't know enough about the show to know that.

Still want to punch him. If I want to watch something that makes me feel like punching, well that's what FOX News and MSN are for.
